Jan Hohn

Simply put, Jan Hohn is passionate about tile. With 23 years of experience in the industry, she has a thorough understanding of what a quality installation requires above and below the tiled surface. This knowledge is derived not only from hands-on work in the field, but also from decades of attending and hosting industry-driven seminars and training workshops. Her technical expertise, honed skills and artisan eye for detail have helped Jan become a leader in her field, and she loves to share this passion with her clients.

Jan is perpetually active within the tile industry on a national level. She is currently a state director for the National Tile Contractors Association (NTCA), and sits on the NTCA’s Technical Committee as well as its Methods and Standards Committee. In addition, she is also on the Handmade Tile Association’s Board of Directors and attends the American National Standard Institute meetings when possible.

As one of only a few women tile contractors in the male-dominated world of construction trades, Jan has broken ground in the industry as the first woman to serve on NTCA’s board of directors. In addition, she is the first woman to serve on NTCA’s Technical Committee, first woman NTCA member to be a Certified Tile Installer, first woman to win the Tileletter Grand Prize Residential Award and the first woman to be awarded the NTCA’s Five Star Contractor accreditation.
