Hi all. I'm new here.
I have an old house. Part of it has an addition with a block foundation and the other is a stone foundation.
I recently skim coated the block foundation and dry locked it. I have a little water issue on the old stone foundation. Part of the joints on the stone are failing and water is leaking through. The floor is concrete so no water issues there. I was looking to clean out the joints and Fill them in. Then I wanted to install metal lathe and skim coat the walls.
The reason for the lathe is the stone is uneven and I want to install metal cabinets and other space savers for all of my tools.
I also plan on putting a French drain on the outside.
My question is what type of mortar should I use for the joints and what type of cement for the metal lathe?
Thank you.
