TEC® and NTCA Offer Exterior Tile Installation Webinar

Webinar to Take Place on July 22, 2015

Publish Date: Tuesday, June 16, 2015

AURORA, IL…TEC® will present a new webinar on exterior tile installations at 1 p.m. CST/ 2 p.m. EST on July 22, 2015. This webinar, titled “Strategies for Exterior Tile Installations”, explores products and strategies that will guide professional contractors toward successful installations in difficult outdoor environments.

TEC®, a proud member and supporter of NTCA, presents this webinar with the help of Tom Plaskota, TEC® Technical Support Manager.

“Tom Plaskota’s 30 years of experience with TEC construction methods, testing and materials makes him the ideal presenter for this webinar,” says Kristin Fritts, Director of Marketing for H.B. Fuller Construction Products Inc., the manufacturer of TEC® brand products. “The technical information and service he provides will be available to any contractor aiming to learn more about challenging tile installations.”

The webinar will demonstrate the power exterior tile has to transform a building or public space and add to its curb appeal, while recognizing the intricacies of the installation process.

The presentation will look at the importance of careful tile selection, understanding the groundwork necessary for substrate preparation, and the meticulous planning that goes into mortar and grout selection.

Not only does the presentation stress the importance of planning, but it also sets effective approaches to installation. These strategies — evaluating wind, sun, and moisture factors to name a few — determine the success of the exterior tile installation and can ensure a well-executed project.

This webinar will provide the necessary information contractors need to master difficult installations. You can register for the webinar here: http://bit.ly/1dGfnZl .
