Question from Susan

I am remodeling 2 bathrooms and I want to make sure I am doing it as least toxic as possible. I have a small child with special needs who does not have a strong immune system.

My contractor told me he typically uses Tec Full Flex (latex modified thin set mortar) for floors and Tec Double Duty (ceramic tile adhesive for walls & floors) for walls. What are the least toxic alternatives to these products?

Also, what other products should I purchase and have on hand to ensure a safe remodel?

There are sooo many products out there so any and all advice is GREATLY appreciated!

Susan

Debra’s Answer

The most complete answer I can give you is to direct you to my ebook Debra’s Guide to Creating a Green Bathroom. It shows exactly what I did in my own bathroom to make it nontoxic and eco-friendly, including a list of all the brand name products I used.
