Grout help with zellige tile please!
Comments (12)@peytonpoynter Is it true that Clé, Riad, and Zia Zellige tiles all come from the same source in Morocco? And that their white tiles are actually the same? I’m wondering how you figured that out or came to that conclusion. Thanks!...See MoreZellige "look" tile recommendations
Comments (44)I don't know if this matters to anyone, but I thought I would share. I was planning on using Zellige tiles for our upcoming bathroom renovation. I ordered samples from Cle and Zia and also a few other local places that carry Zellige. We tested the tiles for the presence of lead and they were all extremely high for lead levels, other than the unglazed options (which would require sealing). The test kit only detects lead at levels of at LEAST 600 ppm and these all tested immediately positive, so that is the very least amount they have. I would venture to say the are much higher than that based on the test. I wanted to share this, as I would have been extremely upset had I installed these and learned afterward....See MoreCan anyone who has installed zellige tile tell me if this is normal?
Comments (22)Who ordered and received the tiles? That’s who should have inspected them all, and reordered if they felt they were defective. Once they’re installed. There’s no recourse. You own the issue. It has nothing to do with the installation. It’s all in the tile. Tilers install what they are given. They don’t know what you ordered or how it “should” look. Just an FYI... This is a common, and often repeated, myth. It is not correct. You have a duty to limit the damages of other parties in a contract. You can't install tile that you suspect may be defective and pawn it off on someone else's duty to inspect the tiles. If a reasonable person in the profession and/or providing the services that you are performing would question the quality of materials being installed then you have an affirmative duty to stop work until you have verification. That duty is a staple of contract law in all U.S. states and most other countries....See MoreHas anyone used Riad zellige tile in the bathroom?
Comments (1)A tile P.R.O. does not find this extraordinarily "difficult". Yes a pro. Not a DIY, , not a guy a contractor hauls to the job from a street corner. Not a guy who is used to slamming up three dollar a sq foot subway from the local big box. Just as important? Your substrate. Level......true. and WATERPROOF. https://zellige-tiles.com/zellige-installation.php...See MoreRachel Lee
