A Connecticut company founded in 1956 that makes thinset mortars, Hydro Ban waterproofing and Spectralock grout.
LATICRETE was founded in Connecticut in 1956 and makes setting materials for tile and stone: thinset mortars, grouts, waterproofing and surface care products. Its Hydro Ban liquid-applied waterproofing is a popular choice for shower floors and walls, and its Spectralock grout is a stain-resistant epoxy-based grout. Tile installers in Nashville often choose a single maker for membrane, mortar and grout because the products are designed to work together.
We are an independent contractor and use LATICRETE products when you choose them. Liquid waterproofing needs the right thickness and cure time, so we measure and follow the maker's instructions. We select mortar for the tile size and material, and we discuss grout options such as cement, urethane and epoxy based on how you will maintain the shower. We are honest about trade-offs and about when another system might suit your project.
