Pool tiles are specifically manufactured to handle constant exposure to water, chemicals, and temperature shifts. They’re non-porous and highly durable, making them ideal for aquatic settings. Regular tiles, on the other hand, are generally made for indoor use and may not provide the same level of water or chemical resistance, making them unsuitable for pools.
Porcelain and glass remain the most popular pool tile materials because of their durability and resistance to water absorption. Porcelain is dense, versatile in design, and excellent for high-moisture areas. Glass tiles offer a vibrant, reflective finish that adds a luxury touch, though they tend to cost more. Natural stone can also be used for a textured, organic look, but usually requires sealing. AquaBlu carries the largest online collection of pool tiles - our team can help you select the perfect option for your project.
Frost resistance protects porcelain tiles from cracking or damage in freezing conditions, making them a reliable choice for outdoor pools in colder climates. Both our porcelain and glass collections are designed to withstand winter weather and deliver long-term durability.
The best finish depends on your needs. Matte tiles provide greater slip resistance, which is ideal for wet or high-traffic areas. Glossy tiles enhance color depth and create a sleek, polished look. With a wide range of finishes available, you can choose the balance of safety and style that works best for your space.
Porcelain is extremely durable, low-maintenance, and timeless in design. The main limitation compared to glass is that porcelain doesn’t offer the same shimmering or iridescent effects. However, it remains one of the most practical and reliable options. For added style, explore trending choices such as zellige-look porcelain tiles.
Yes. Porcelain is one of the best materials for pools due to its density, low porosity, and resistance to chemicals and weather. It can be used inside the pool and around it. Just be sure to choose pool-rated porcelain rather than standard indoor-grade tile. AquaBlu supplies only high-performing porcelain products designed for long-term pool applications.
No. Because porcelain has a very low absorption rate, soaking isn’t necessary. Simply make sure the tiles are clean and debris-free before installation to ensure a secure bond with the adhesive.
With proper installation and care, pool tiles can last 10-20 years, and premium porcelain or glass tiles often last even longer. Following correct installation methods, keeping pool chemistry balanced, and using high-quality products from trusted suppliers like AquaBlu can extend their lifespan. For additional guidance, review standards from the TCNA.
Porcelain is widely recognized as the most durable pool tile because of its low water absorption, strength, and resistance to chemicals and stains. For decks, 2cm porcelain pavers and coping provide exceptional performance in outdoor environments.
Most pool tiles range from 6mm to 10mm. Glass mosaics are typically 6-8mm thick, while porcelain tiles are often 8-10mm. For coping and decking, thicker 20mm porcelain or natural stone slabs are preferred for added strength and freeze-thaw resistance.
One common mistake is cleaning with abrasive tools, which can scratch the tile surface. Always use non-abrasive brushes intended for pool care. Proper installation is also crucial - ensure pool-rated adhesives and grout are used. Adding a waterproofing membrane, such as Basecrete, helps protect against moisture intrusion and extends tile life.
Glass and porcelain tiles are the top choices for pool interiors. Both are durable, non-porous, and resistant to pool chemicals. Glass offers a striking reflective quality, while porcelain delivers lasting performance with a wide variety of design styles.
Choose pool-rated porcelain or glass tiles tested for outdoor use. Look for slip resistance, chemical durability, and freeze/thaw performance. For surrounding areas, 2cm porcelain pavers with matching coping pieces create a seamless, low-maintenance finish.
Porcelain pool tiles are versatile and suitable for pools, spas, bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor living areas. Their durability and weather resistance make them ideal for both submerged and exposed settings. Our experts can guide you in selecting the right tiles for any project.
Pool coping tiles are edge pieces that finish the perimeter of the pool, creating a smooth transition from water to deck. They provide safety, protect the pool shell, and conceal structural edges. Coping comes in materials such as marble, travertine, and porcelain for a functional yet refined look.
