Proper installation is critical. To ensure a successful one, please take note of the following steps:

  • Select your installer with consideration and care. We also recommend that you request referrals from previous clients before making your final decision.
  • Make sure that your installer understands the special patterns or blending requirements that are part of the job. To ensure satisfactory results, we strongly recommend blending all tile before installation.
  • See that your installer reviews and understands any special installation procedures recommended for specific products.
  • The customer or representative should supervise the installation.
