FAQ
What is the difference between pool tiles and regular tiles?
Pool tiles are engineered to endure constant exposure to water, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations, making them highly durable and non-porous. In contrast, standard tiles are typically intended for indoor use and may lack the necessary resistance for submerged or consistently wet environments.
What is the best material for pool tiles?
Porcelain and glass are widely regarded as the top choices for pool tiles due to their durability, water resistance, and low maintenance. Porcelain is dense, non-porous, and available in a variety of colors and designs, making it ideal for pool environments. Glass tiles offer a luminous, upscale look and are also non-porous, though generally at a higher cost. Natural stone provides a textured, organic appearance with slip resistance but may require sealing.

Why is frost resistance important for porcelain pool tiles?
Frost resistance protects tiles from cracking in freezing temperatures, making them suitable for year-round outdoor use. Our porcelain and glass pool tile options are built to withstand cold climates, helping to ensure long-term performance and reduced maintenance.
What finish is best for porcelain pool tiles?
The finish affects both look and safety. Matte finishes provide slip resistance, ideal for wet areas. Glossy finishes enhance color and offer a polished, high-end appearance. Choose the finish that best matches your style and functional needs.
Are there disadvantages to porcelain pool tiles?
The primary limitation is the absence of shimmering, iridescent effects available in glass tiles. However, porcelain remains one of the most durable and timeless options for pool projects. Explore our trending porcelain selections, including zellige-look designs, at AquaBlu.
Is porcelain tile good for a swimming pool?
Yes. Porcelain is durable, water-impermeable, and resistant to chemicals and temperature swings, making it suitable for pool interiors and surrounds. Not all porcelain is pool-rated, so avoid generic tiles from mass retailers. For lasting results, choose pool-specific porcelain from trusted brands. AquaBlu is an authorized distributor of premium pool tile designed for these demanding conditions.
Do porcelain pool tiles require soaking in water before use?
No. Due to their dense composition and low water absorption, porcelain tiles do not require soaking. Simply ensure they are clean before installation for the best bond.
How long does pool tile last?
Tile lifespan depends on quality, installation, and maintenance. High-quality, well-installed pool tiles can last decades, sometimes indefinitely, especially compared to plaster finishes. Maintain proper water chemistry and cleaning practices, and hire qualified installers following TCNA guidelines for best results.
What is the most durable pool tile?
Porcelain is the leading choice for durability, with minimal water absorption and high resistance to stains, cracks, and chemicals. For decks, 2cm porcelain pavers are exceptionally strong and long-lasting. Explore AquaBlu's curated collection of premium porcelain pool tiles and 2cm porcelain pavers and coping.
