FAQ
Can glass pool tiles handle exposure to pool chemicals and sunlight?
Yes, our glass pool tiles are engineered to resist damage from UV rays, harsh chemicals, and fluctuating temperatures. This makes them an excellent choice for both outdoor and indoor pools. Explore our full range of glass pool tile finishes to find the perfect match.
Can I order tile samples before purchasing?
Definitely. AquaBlu provides samples so you can evaluate color, finish, and quality firsthand. Look for the “Order Sample” feature on each product listing. Don’t forget, grout is also a design element - sample sticks are available upon request to help you visualize the final look.
What’s the difference between iridescent, matte, and glossy glass tiles?
Iridescent glass tiles create shimmering color shifts depending on lighting. Matte tiles provide a soft, non-reflective surface, while glossy finishes are reflective and rich in color. Your choice depends on the aesthetic and level of shine you want to achieve.
Are glass pool tiles hard to maintain?
Not at all. These non-porous glass tiles are easy to clean with a mild, pool-safe cleaner and a soft brush. A simple maintenance routine will keep your pool looking stunning. Visit our Tile Cleaning Solutions page for tips and recommended products.
Can I use glass tiles throughout the entire pool?
Yes! Glass tiles are perfect for fully tiling your pool or highlighting features like waterlines, benches, spas, and tanning ledges. They bring unmatched brilliance and depth, although they typically involve a higher investment than more traditional finishes.
Are glass pool tiles safe for areas where people walk?
Generally, glass tiles are smooth, but the grout joints between them offer some traction. For areas like steps, sun shelves, and shallow entries, we recommend matte or textured finishes for added grip. Learn more on the TCNA website for tile safety and slip resistance.
How do glass tiles compare with plaster or pebble finishes?
Glass tiles are more durable, longer-lasting, and visually vibrant compared to plaster or pebble finishes. While they require a larger upfront investment, they deliver premium aesthetics and lower long-term maintenance needs.
Is customization available for glass tiles?
Yes, several of our collections, like American Glass Mosaics and Murrine Mosaics, offer customizable blends, colors, and patterns. AquaBlu is a trusted custom mosaic producer with access to both domestic and international factories. Reach out to our team to start designing your perfect pool tile.

How do I care for my glass tile over time?
Maintaining glass tile is simple. Use a non-abrasive cloth or brush with mild soap and water for regular cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals to keep the surface crystal-clear and gleaming.
Can glass tiles be trimmed for custom applications?
Yes, glass tiles can be cut using a wet saw fitted with a diamond blade made for glass. Use plenty of water while cutting to minimize chipping and get a clean edge.
