Do all tile setters adhere to the recommendations and standards set by TTMAC and TCA?
A. No, the TTMAC and TCA is not a governing body and the industry allows builders, suppliers, retailers and tile setters to do as they please and at the very most follow the minimum guidelines set within the Building Codes. The Building Codes DO NOT properly address the correct methods of ceramic tile and stone installation therefore allowing most builders to get away with a less than adequate workmanship.
