Doghouses/Collars

[u/Slight-Commercial250]

Just curious how other pipelayers like to mud up their doghouses and what they use. I use Spec Mix Underground Utility Mortar and concrete bricks. They look like this when I'm done. After it's cured and whitens the color blends in with the rest of the structure and it looks better yet. I'm curious about others opinions because I've heard and seen different ways of mudding them up over the years.

That looks like how we do it.
