OK, We are doing it !

Many have suggested we do a mud-training event over the last few years. After speaking with the folks at LATICRETE, it is here. The first Tile Geeks mudcourse. If you would like to attend, please find the sign up form at the bottom of this post. This can be emailed to Jeffrey Carder jtcarder@laticrete.com or faxed to 951 277-4975. I will be there along with Shaun Haley doing some hands on instruction. While mud is definitely "old school" in the midst of many new products, it is still a time tested viable method and a great skill to have.Mud combined with new products opens many new options as well. Come join us for a couple days. OK, We are doing it ! The program is underway !

Hands-On New Products Training Testimonial

Subject: PTK experience. .

I have never been one to say I know everything. Working with LATICRETE products, I've come to have enough confidence on my own because I know the products I use will give me and my client that satisfaction of a job well done.  From HYDRO BAN tile waterproofing products to thinset to the new shower drains.  I learned  so many NEW things in this PTK. I'm now very confident to use LATICRETE Drains.  

I would like to thank you for these programs.  The other great benefit is meeting new people in the industry. I met some really nice people. Your entire team in Corona, California are some of the most caring and very knowledgeable representatives.  Gerard really went above and beyond  to accommodate my stay and that I was well informed of ALL the new products from LATICRETE.  Once again, THANK YOU ! For everything that you and LATICRETE International does for us.

Testimonial

"There isn't enough space for me to explain how much I took away from PTK. One very important thing worth mentioning though is that ever since we went there last year, my bottom line has increased. There were so many things that Laticrete offers in terms of support that I didn't even know existed and I utilize them now. A great, simple example is the Lifetime Tile and Stone System Warranty, which has closed more jobs than I can count and justifies my pricing."Jim Picarazzi Jack Splash's Backsplashes and Floors jpicarazzi@gmail.com Rochester, NY Click here for more information regarding Laticrete PTK Educational & Training events.

Dear Laticrete team,

As we keep striving to provide great service, our goals here at Lido Stone include creating awareness and exposing people to the right information.

The setup, organization, the information and overall experience we had at your Laticrete facility was impressive. We would like to provide our own staff and clients with the best possible means and methods that are available through Laticrete.

As our Laticrete in-house presentation is approaching (Jan, 15), we would like to equipped ourselves with the right tools; company literature, brochures, samples, reading material, etc. (20 - 30 people) Could you please arrange for these tools to be sent to Lido Stone at your earliest convenience.

Please don't hesitate contact me for any questions or concerns.

Thank you,

Julio A Soriano
