Some progress on a retail store in the Hyatt Kaanapali. A few substrate issues to deal with. Caesar tile in 18" x 18" for the field and 12" x 24 " for the border all the way from Italy. The designer is based in Tennessee.

And the public bathrooms in a health food store in Kahului. Florim tile shipped all the way from Tennessee. Purchased from a company in Albany,NY. And this designer is based in Yonkers, NY. The strange world of retail design.

The Caesar tile got here faster. But it was in stock in chilly California.

Ahh, good old Creative Materials Corp.
used them a lot for restaurants and mall stores I tiled.
They are into supplying and spec'ing a lot of tile for retail stores.

Response to Brian of bctile601 about the quartz up on deck...... 4 pieces actually but this guy was good with installation and seaming it. You have to look close to see any seams.

Henry, nice install

mud talk needs its own thread

We have a thread for mud so keep it there, though if I did wall mud I'd talk about it here, there, grocery store, anyone who would listen

first oval window experience, came out pretty good

[gueuzeman]

Beautiful, joe, love the HPG or Hydrobarrier color.

Homza-

Purchased from a company in Albany,NY.

Creative Materials, like Brian said. They're just an office, no warehouse, nothing in stock, not a real tile store, but a real $ making machine, lol.

Maybe we should have a separate plank tile thread and we could keep all your spam out of this one.

I agree Joe great job with the oval window and waterproofing. Looking foward to seeing how you tile it

Jim that was a pretty good one



That Laticrete 125 is still one of the weirdest thinsets I've worked with but dang good stuff. I've used it on a couple condominium bathroom floors.

Here's one I crammed in before i head out to long beach. Was at it till 6pm saturday. Traditional mud shower, 2 1/2"X4 7/8"X5/8" glazed ceramic tile field...very imperfect, expensive stuff. Sonoma glass stripe with derango stone herringbone mosaic floor. All set with Tec 3 in 1. Drain grate was too fancy for the plumber to trust the tile guy.

This was my first time cutting around a rock fireplace, took me awhile but the customer was happy with the results so i cant complain to much

Kerapoxy grout finally showed up so I was able to finish this one yesterday.

My first mud shower done

[Jc0379]

Looks good John! How do you like working with Kerapoxy, never used it myself , always Spectralock.

[jwmezzanotte]

I hate it.
Getting better at it though. Looking into other options

The winery hotel is nearing completion. 50 rooms complete. Elevator lobby's are done This is one of the 4 bath rooms I did.
This is the crown moulding going in to the first floor check in lobby.
Sparkles are going to put led light strips behind the crown.

It's installed with PL premium 3x and mechanical fasteners
