Boral Display centre

We visited the Boral Brick display centre on the weekend. The lady was very informative and gave us the addresses of a few house using our selected brick to go have a look at. We also noticed on a house in there photo book that the off white mortar looked "Pink" in stead of "Off white". She explained that the wrong sand would have been used. She said that normal brickie sand is brown to orange in color and the sand required to make the off withe mortar look nice and white, should be the color of a child's sandpit not white but a yellow to blond type color.

I will defiantly be checking the sand when it gets dropped of to make sure its not brown or orange!
