Dallas, Texas -- Dal-Tile is currently launching a new program nationwide to benefit tile installers who have attained NTCA “Five-Star Contractor” level of achievement in their craft and to benefit their customers.

The NTCA Five-Star Contractor title is granted by the National Tile Contractors Association (NTCA) to those NTCA members who have objectively demonstrated a proven track record of success in tile and stone installation and business management. Although Dal-Tile already offers strong warranties to all customers on all of its products regardless of who installs, Dal-Tile believes so strongly in the quality of workmanship offered by NTCA Five-Star Contractors that Dal-Tile is now choosing to provide longer warranties to customers on products that are installed by NTCA Five-Star Contractors.

“Dal-Tile is now offering end-users a 5-year ceramic tile warranty and a 10-year warranty on porcelain products installed by a NTCA Five-Star Contractor,” said John Cousins, senior vice president, Dal-Tile Corporation. “These are outstanding warranties that no other tile manufacturer in the industry is offering to our industry’s NTCA Five-Star Contractors. The warranties apply to Daltile, Marazzi, and American Olean products when installed in accordance with approved installation systems.”

Dal-Tile’s Hilary Frank will be presenting all details of the new warranty program to contractors attending the upcoming NTCA Five-Star Contractor summer meeting in Canada. Frank is a Dal-Tile Midwest regional vice president as well as a NTCA board member.

“The warranty program is already up and running,” said Cousins.
