TILE INSTALLATION: NOTCHED TROWEL COMB TECHNIQUE

July 24, 2017
MABUHAY!
Another well known method of installing tile is the use of notched trowel comb technique. This method is very effective in eliminating voids- air trapped in the installed tiles. Installed tiles with void easily breaks or crack- specially when applied with pressure, because of it's inherent characteristic of being brittle. Our company sponsored a seminar and invited MARIWASA - probably the biggest tile manufacturer in the Philippines, to train our engineers. architect & masons with this technique.
