FAQ
How are pool tiles different from non-pool tiles?
Pool tiles are built to thrive in tough conditions - constant moisture, harsh pool chemicals, UV rays, and changing temperatures. They’re non-porous and specifically designed for wet or submerged use. Indoor tiles, by contrast, aren’t made for these extremes and can crack, fade, or deteriorate if used around pools.
What are the best materials for swimming pool tiles?
Porcelain and glass are the go-to options for pools. Porcelain is dense, water-resistant, and available in a wide range of textures and finishes. Glass tile adds vivid color, depth, and brilliance. Natural stone is also an option for some areas but usually requires more upkeep and sealing.
Why does frost resistance matter for pool tiles?
In colder climates, freeze-thaw cycles can cause tiles to crack if they aren’t frost-resistant. That’s why AquaBlu offers porcelain and glass tiles rated for outdoor use and built to perform through every season.
What tile finish is best for pool decks and waterlines?
For areas with foot traffic, matte finishes are ideal since they provide better grip and slip resistance. Glossy finishes, on the other hand, are great for waterlines and vertical accents where safety isn't as much of a concern. AquaBlu offers both finishes so you can strike the right balance between style and function.
Are there any downsides to porcelain pool tile?
Porcelain is tough and dependable. While it doesn’t have the same shimmer as glass, it makes up for it with unmatched strength and versatility. AquaBlu carries porcelain options that mimic wood, stone, and even Zellige for added texture and character.
Can porcelain tile be used underwater?
Yes—but it must be rated for submerged use. Not all porcelain tile qualifies, so make sure to choose pool-specific tiles like those available at AquaBlu.
Should porcelain tiles be soaked before installation?
No need. Porcelain has an extremely low absorption rate, so once it's clean and dust-free, it's ready to install with the appropriate adhesive.
How long do pool tiles last?
With proper installation and regular care, pool tiles can last 10 to 20 years or more. Following TCNA standards, using high-quality setting materials, and keeping your pool water balanced will help extend tile life.
What’s the most durable tile for pool use?
Porcelain stands out as the most durable option—it’s water-resistant, chemical-resistant, and holds up to the elements. For added traction and toughness on decks and edges, 2cm porcelain pavers are a smart pick.
How thick should pool tiles be?
Pool tile thickness generally ranges from 6mm to 10mm. Glass tiles usually fall between 6–8mm, while porcelain waterline tiles are typically 8–10mm. For exterior use like decks or coping, thicker 2cm options offer extra durability.
What are common installation mistakes to avoid?
Skipping waterproofing, using the wrong adhesive, or not prepping the surface properly can all lead to failure. To avoid problems, use pool-rated products like Basecrete and always consult with an experienced installer.
What tile works best for pool interiors?
Both glass and porcelain tiles perform well underwater. Glass offers dazzling color and dimension, while porcelain is durable and easy to maintain. Just ensure whichever you choose is rated for submerged use.
What kind of tile should be used around the pool perimeter?
Choose tiles that are slip-resistant and rated for exterior environments. AquaBlu’s 2cm porcelain pavers are ideal for pool surrounds, offering both safety and style.
Where else can porcelain pool tile be used?
Porcelain is incredibly adaptable. It's great for spas, outdoor showers, patios, bathrooms, and even as a stylish kitchen backsplash. Its durability and resistance to moisture make it a versatile choice indoors or out.
What is pool coping, and why is it important?
Pool coping is the finishing edge around the pool, connecting the shell to the deck. It prevents water from seeping behind the pool walls, adds safety by providing a smooth border, and enhances the overall design. Popular materials include porcelain, travertine, and marble.
