SmartCare Block Joining Mortar

Product description

Leakproofs by Betterwork specifies and applies SmartCare Block Joining Mortar as part of a complete waterproofing system. A material on its own does not stop a leak — what stops it is the right material chosen for the right defect, on a surface that has been properly prepared. That is why we deep-scan before we specify.

Where SmartCare Block Joining Mortar is used

This product is specified for walls.

• AAC and concrete block masonry construction
• Partition and infill walls
• Block work on external elevations
• New construction where joint quality affects later waterproofing

Suitable substrates: Masonry, Concrete block.

How it is applied

Mixed to the specified consistency and applied as a thin, even joint. The advantage disappears if it is used as a thick bed like ordinary mortar.

Preparation is the part that decides whether the system lasts. Loose material and failed old coatings are removed, cracks are cut and filled, and the surface is cleaned and brought to the moisture condition the product requires before anything is applied. Skipping that stage is the single most common reason waterproofing fails in its first season, whichever brand is on the tin.

Key properties

• Thin, consistent joints
• Flexible polymer-modified formulation
• Reduces water paths through masonry joints
• Faster block laying than site mortar
• Must be used as a thin joint to work
