Bullnose Issues Resolved

Using American Bullnose Company eliminates dye lot issues,  back order situations, availability and special size problems.

Our online survey shows that 15% of the issues that arise in the tile industry are bullnose related. We have nationwide locations to service our customers. Each of our locations has an on-site owner to address and solve our customer's bullnose issues.

 

Issue - Back Orders

 

Bullnose tile that does not match the field tileOften field tile is available but the bullnose is back ordered. Because we use your field tile, bullnose is always available and there is never a back order situation. Because installers become desperate, bullnose is installed that does not match the field tile.

 

 

Issue - "Cold Glaze" (painted) Edges

 

Bullnose tile with a cold glaze edgeSome of our competitors apply  a "cold glaze" (paint) to the bullnose edge, which initially looks fine; ultimately this is a finish that has no durability. Unlike  "cold glaze" (painted) edge bullnose (pictured) American Bullnose Company applies a glaze that is kiln fired resulting in a long lasting durable finish.

 

Issue - Unglazed Bullnose Edges

 

Bullnose edges that are not glazedSome tile companies provide bullnose with an unglazed edge. These edges not only do not match the tile but also are difficult to maintain. American Bullnose Company always glazes and re-fires the edges of glazed tiles.

Issue - Bad Dye Lots
 

Bullnose tile that does not match the field tileSome tile companies often make their field tile and bullnose in separate factories and/or at different times resulting in a non-matching bullnose. Because we fabricate your bullnose from your field tile the results are a perfectly matched bullnose.

Issue - Installing without Bullnose
 

Not using a bullnose tileA tile installation without bullnose creates an unsightly edge, impossible to clean.

Issue - Plastic or Metal Tile Trim Profiles
 

Use of unsightly plastic trimPlastic and metal tile trim profiles produce an unsightly tile installation.
