Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How many glass blocks do I need per square meter (m2)? A: With a standard 10mm mortar joint, you will need 25 blocks per m2.
Q: Can I use standard cement for installation? A: We strongly recommend Specialist White Glass Block Mortar. Standard grey cement can dull the look of the glass and does not bond as effectively to the non-porous surface.
Q: Are these blocks load-bearing? A: No. They are decorative architectural elements and should never be used to support the weight of a roof or upper story.
