YES… Laticrete, Green and Residential go together …!


The April 27, 2009, launch of the new version of LEED included an upgrade to the commercial and institutional LEED rating systems. The LEED for Homes Rating System and reference guide were not affected by the launch of LEED v3.

As part of the Laticrete team we have a Laticrete Architectural Specialist who focuses on the subject of Green / LEED & Residential and how we can work with you to pursue LEED certification on your Residential, and Commercial, projects.

USGBC: LEED for Homes

The LEED for Homes Rating System was originally designed for single family and low rise multi-family residential development. Want more info ...? Click here.

A submitted Project


Here is one of the floor we finished recently. The toe kick and the quarter round are not installed yet ........
Anyway, we used some of the 125 to set the deco diamonds.

This floor is a full Laticrete installation:
We used 272 to bed the 1/4" cbu over two layers of plywood. We then skim coated the cbu with 254, then primed, then installed Laticrete heat mats with sill seal foam around the perimeter
Then, we primed again and poured #86 SLC.
Then a skim of 254, then HydroBan and fabric, then set all the tile with 220, using a skim coat of 254 on the substrate and the back of each tile to really adhere the 220.
Then grouted with SpectraLOCK and used the Latisil on the perimeter for expansion.
