Sand and Cement or Lime For Pointing a red brick house built in 1906

Posted by Suhail Mohmed, on
Property built in 1906. While rear of the house needs pointing top to bottom. All pointing contractors are saying they will use sand and cement but my research online shows it should be lime mortar as it was built pre war and is red bricks
