How to repair liquid limestone?

Hi Bunnings,

We’ve built a patio over a large liquid limestone area in our backyard. We had to cut the liquid limestone to create the concrete footings formthe patio posts amd we now would like to repair the sections we had to cut the liquid limestone. 
Are there pre-mixed bags we could buy of it? If not , how to mix liquid limestone? What are de ratios amd ingredients? 
we have the standard light creamy looking mix.. 

regards, 

Al

Hi @MrAlex 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's wonderful to have you join us and thanks for sharing your question about liquid limestone.

 

I'm sorry but Bunnings currently does not stock pre-mixed liquid limestone repair bags. But I've passed your feedback onto the merchandise team.

 

If you are thinking about making your own mix, the typical ratio of liquid limestone is 1:4 one part (cream coloured) cement and four parts crushed limestone. These will be the ingredients you'll need to make your own mix.

 

Another way to repair the damage is to use ordinary mortar and painting it over with Crommelin 1L Liquidstone Limestone. However, I can't guarantee that it will have the same colour finish as your current limestone.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

 

Eric
