Lime Mortar Analysis & Colour Matching

Colour matching your samples to our range of mortars made with local aggregates for site mixing or from a range of standard colours of pigmented readymixed mortars is free.

Lime mortar disaggregation analysis carried out in our laboratory at The Lime Centre costs £98 plus vat. The results show the lime binder ratio and the grading/ granulometry of the aggregate. This is regularly used to provide information to assist in like for like or compatible repairs in order that a repair mortar matches the original colour, texture and strength.

For each analysis we require approximately half a tea cup or 150 grams of mortar. For colour matching we require a small piece of mortar about the size of a sugar lump.
