John Bridge Ceramic Tile

Welcome to John Bridge.com, the world's friendliest and most informative tile advice forum, and the most visited tile information site on the Internet. Our mission is two-pronged: to better inform the general public on the intricacies of the tile industry, and to provide a meeting place for tile and stone professionals where information might be freely exchanged.

Our History

John Bridge's background and qualifications are rooted in the construction industry. Leaving the army in 1968, he applied for apprenticeship training in the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America. He became a carpenter, working on various projects such as schools, apartment buildings, and houses. Moreover, he held the Arizona General Building Contractor's License, Class B, which enabled him to legally build skyscrapers, as well as houses. Although he never built a skyscraper, he did establish the Bridge and Elftmann construction company in Phoenix, Arizona with a partner. They were framing contractors, primarily working on housing tracts and apartment complexes, employing hundreds of workers at peak.
