Helpful Install Tips
Consider crack prevention membranes, water proofing, flexible thin sets and grout for your installation.
Every project is unique and might require additional materials than our installation guides suggest. We recommend having a tile professional review your specific product prior to installation.
SEALING Although Pattern Clay tile does not require sealant, for extra protection in wet areas and exterior usage, we recommend a top coat of Penetrating Sealant
TYPE We recommend Mapei Ultracolor Plus grout for most installations of glazed clay tiles.
JOINT We recommend between 1/8”-1/4" grout joint for rectified tiles, due to a natural variation in size. An additional deviation of ± 1/4" is considered acceptable for joint straightness and variation of flatness.
Although a tighter grout joint is achievable, we recommend consulting a skilled installation expert to increase the probability of a successful installation.
COLOR We recommend against high pigmented grout colors. High pigmented grout colors can stain the surface of glazed and unglazed tiles.

CRAZING
Clay tiles can experience crazing. Crazing refers to fine cracks within the outer layer of the glaze. Crazing is a natural result of ceramic production and can occur before and after installation. Sometimes crazing will not appear until years after installation. Crazing does not affect the durability of ceramic products.
COLORATION
Glazes are mixed and formulated with lead-free Due to the nature of hand crafted glazes and tile production, color variation can be prevalent. We rate each glaze color based on a variation rating system from V1(least)-V4 (most). Some glaze colors have more color, sheen and texture variation than others.
LEAD TIMES
Lead times are estimated based on production and shipping timeframes during time of purchase. Lead times are subject to change during the estimated production and transit timeframe.
