Nortex Tile
Bathroom Company in Plano, TX
In 1946, when my father entered the tile trade, ceramic tile was laid mainly on lath and mortar. It was built to last and the test of time has proven that to be so. In 1978, when I began my own tile contracting service, things had changed. Ceramic tile was being laid everywhere on sheetrock backing. It didn't matter what type of sheetrock it was, it almost all failed eventually in wet areas. We repair and remodel showers the correct way. We set tile on lath and mortar(mud as we say in the trade) or with concrete board, which is the next finest method.
