One of the best addresses in Sydney



Click on photos to enlarge

This job has LATICRETE Productivity stamped all over it.

Most of the units and their extensive stone and tile work were done with LATICRETE materials. These include HYDRO BAN, 253 Gold, 4237/211, PERMACOLOR grout and 3701 mortar.


The above photographs show the stair lobby wall which starts in the basement and extends upwards to a long narrow skylight along the width at the top. The wall is only interrupted by the canter-levered stair case which is cast showing the profile of the tread and riser only.
The large format limestone panels (2' x 4' & 1' x 4') on this wall were fixed to the concrete wall with LATAPOXY 310 stone adhesive by the "Spot Bond Method" which eliminated slow, labor intensive mechanical fixing of the stone. The Pietra Grey Marble installed on the stairs and landings were bonded with LATICRETE 4237/211W.

Wrapping up a 350 sq ft residential chiseled edge marble job and had my tile walked on. Chiseling tile ... even next day proved the performance of your thinset. Thanks for great products. Take care."
