Stone Tile Installation Showcase

SPRAY ADHESIVE
150_Braxton_Bragg_4stepsBraxton Bragg Corp., Knoxville, Tenn., offers Homax’s Spray & Set® Wall Tile Adhesive for the installation of smooth-back stone tile. The solution allows the installer to spray, set and grout wall tile in one day; once an area is sprayed, the installer has more than an hour to install the tile, and tile is set within a half-hour of application. With no adhesive bleed between joints, there’s no clean-up involved, and grouting can begin an hour after tiles are set. Each can covers approximately 40 ft².

LARGE-FORMAT INSTALLATION MATERIALS
150_Custom LLSLU30Custom Building Products, Seal Beach, Calif., offers LevelLite™ Self-Leveling Underlayment and MegaLite® Medium-Bed Mortar, both for installing large-format stone tile. ANSI defines large-format stone tile as pieces with one dimension bigger than 15”, which requires a floor or substrate’s flatness to be less than 1/8” deviation in 10’ linear feet. LevelLite Self-Leveling Underlayment creates an even, flat surface, while MegaLite Medium-Bed Mortar allows for better adjustment and support for setting large stone tile. Both also qualify for Custom’s Lifetime Installation Systems Warranty, and help to achieve LEED® credits, thanks to their recycled content.
