TCAA, NTCA establish historic partnership to elevate tile trade
The Tile Contractors' Association of America (TCAA) and the National Tile Contractors Association (NTCA) recently announced a major initiative that will take place immediately. In an attempt to raise the level of integrity and professionalism in the tile trade -- and to present project owners, builders, architects and design professionals an opportunity to demand installation excellence -- the two associations have agreed to mutually promote and market their company recognition programs. This partnership is unprecedented in the tile trade, and as such, carries with it historical significance.
The TCAA "Trowel of Excellence" and the NTCA "Five-Star Contractor" programs have separately been acknowledged in the tile industry as worthy efforts to recognize companies that demonstrate a proven track record of success and ethical business practices. By promoting the two programs together, the top companies in each association that successfully complete the criteria for acceptance into these exclusive groups will be presented with unique opportunities for marketing and business development.
