Completed tile fountain

So Yesterday we completed tiling the fountain. Just in time before all this rain hit us.
We applied the 3rd and final coat of sealer after letting grout cure for 3 days.
We then drilled holes for the bolt and use PL 400 heavy duty construction adhesive to adhere both ram heads.

Tile Fountain

Our current project at NJ Custom Tile is a tile fountain. yes, an outside Spanish style fountain.

First the masonry blocks needed to be waterproofed. We used Tec Hydraflex waterproofing and crack isolation membrane. 3 coats were applied with a brush and roller.

Standing 4 1/2' tall and 17' long. We tiled the entire standing face of the fountain with Seneca clay 4x4 tiles, on a diagonal. The basin was tile in a brick pattern. Tec Superflex and 3N1 thin-set were used.

Before grouting it is highly recommended to seal the tile. We applied 2 coats Stonetech professional heavy-duty exterior sealer.

Grout used was Clay sanded. We mixed grout with 100% Tec grout additive. Grout must be mixed with this in freeze thaw applications.

Here is the inspiration photo actual photo to come when all complete.
