Marble Threshold on Ditra Mat

14 years ago

Hi, I am working on my bathroom and using Ditra Mat for the underlayment of the tile floor. I am installing the Ditra Mat over plywood, and was wondering if it is better to install the marble threshold on the Ditra Mat, or directly on the plywood. Is there any harm in installing the threshold on the Ditra? Any special product I should be using? Thanks in advance!

Right on the Ditra mat is fine, no harm at all. You can use the same thinset to set the threshold that you'll use to set your tile.

I do prefer to use white thinset with white marble, but it's not a requirement.
