Guide to Laying Bricks Properly with Cement

1. Mix Cement with Correct Ratio

Standard wall mix: 1 part cement : 4 parts sand. Use a mixer to get an even and quick blend


2. Moisten Bricks Before Laying

Prevents the bricks from absorbing moisture too quickly from mortar


3. Apply Mortar in Thin, Even Layers

Recommended thickness: 10mm–12mmUse a trowel to spread evenly


4. Ensure Straight Lines & Levels

Use string line, level, and hammer every 3–4 rows


5. Tap Bricks Gently & Align Correctly

Ensures mortar bonds well and bricks stay aligned
