Versatile product, easy to mix and use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fantastic. This requires mixing but it’s very simple and easy to do. Used it to repoint some bricks in my garden and but it’s multipurpose and versatile so could be used for many jobs. Feels high quality and durable when using and after. Packaging is ideal, as mixing and using can be done in the same bucket. value is ideal and I’ll definitely be repurchasing in the future for other jobs

Very handy General Purpose Mortar
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Volton general purpose mortar is ideal for any building work, very good for layering bricks or blocks, rendering, pointing or masonry repairs. It’s very easy to use, simply fill the bucket with water to the required volume, add the powder and mix. This is a 5kg tub which is quite a lot when you’ve added the water. I used some of it it to fill in any gaps/holes I had in between the bricks. The setting time is 30 minutes and for drying it’s 24 hours. The instructions are very simple to understand and follow.

5 star Mortar!! Easy to mix and use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Volden Multipurpose Mortar is as promised super easy to mix before use. I've tested this tub of 5kg as a product test, and I am really surprised how easy it is. You simply follow the instructions to avoid any mistakes, I've then used it for fixing/replacing a lot of bricks on a new build house on our work site. Easy to dispose after. Can be used for various purposes even if you're not in the trade. it absolutely was a pleasure using this because it was so easy to mix with water and then just get it right out of the bucket. 5 stars

Solid Product, just needs a good mix!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried Volden Multipurpose Mortar and it has been a reliable product for my DIY projects. The mortar is very versatile and works well for a variety of uses, from patching up walls to smaller masonry jobs.One thing to note it does require thorough mixing before use. When I first opened the tub, the consistency was uneven, but after a good stir, it became smooth and easy to work with. I recommend using a sturdy mixing tool to get the best results. Once mixed, the mortar spreads nicely and adheres well to surfaces. It dries to a strong finish, and I've had no issues with cracking or flaking.
