FAST and EASY Anybody can install SnapStone, and achieve professional results — even if you’ve never installed tile before. And because no underlayment or thinset is needed, it can be done in 1-day. |
 |
AFFORDABLE When you include typical labor costs, and expensive preparation materials required for traditional tile installation, SnapStone saves you time and money! |
 |
CONVENIENT Install SnapStone on your schedule, instead of complicating your life adjusting to a contractor’s schedule. |
 |
DURABLE SnapStone tested to level “6” on the industry-standard Robinson strength test, and is backed by a 10-Year Limited Warranty. |
 |
QUIET Each SnapStone tile has a sound-deadening grid, making it perfect for installation in condominiums and apartments. |
 |
WARMER Because SnapStone is a floating floor and is not fixed to the subfloor, the tile absorbs more of the ambient room temperature versus traditional tiles which makes for a warmer tile. |
 |
SOFTER The SnapStone system has a natural “give” to it, giving it a softer feel than traditional tile. |
 |
CRACK ISOLATION SnapStone tiles are not permanently attached to the sub-floor. This allows the system to suppress cracks without damage to the tile. |
 |
PERFECT ALIGNMENT SnapStone tiles interlock making perfect alignment and consistent grout lines simple. |
 |
REUSABILITY The floor can be easily removed and used again in another room. Simply remove the grout, re-engage, and grout again! |
 |
EASY TO REPLACE SnapStone is not mortared to the sub-floor, making it easy to replace an individual tile or change styles in the future. |
 |
WORKS GREAT WITH RADIANT HEAT SnapStone recommends QuietWarmth, a heated underlayment designed for floating floor systems. |
