FAQ
What is the difference between pool tiles and regular tiles?
Pool tiles are specially engineered to endure constant exposure to water, pool chemicals, and temperature changes. They're made to be extra durable and non-porous, preventing damage over time. Regular tiles, on the other hand, are typically used for indoor walls or floors and lack the same level of moisture and chemical resistance - making them less suitable for submerged or exterior use.
What is the best material for pool tiles?
Porcelain and glass are top-tier materials for pool tiles, known for their strength, water resistance, and low maintenance. Porcelain tiles are dense and non-porous, perfect for pools exposed to continuous water and chemicals. They’re also available in a wide range of colors and styles. Glass tiles offer a luminous finish and are also non-porous, although they may be more costly. Natural stone adds texture and grip but generally requires sealing.

Why is frost resistance important for porcelain pool tiles?
Frost resistance helps pool tiles endure freezing weather without cracking, making them ideal for outdoor pools in various climates. Our porcelain and glass tile selections are crafted for cold-weather performance, helping you avoid costly repairs and extend the lifespan of your installation.
What finish is best for porcelain pool tiles?
Finish matters for both safety and aesthetics. Matte finishes offer excellent slip resistance - perfect for poolside areas. Glossy finishes deliver vibrant color and a sleek, modern look. With a variety of finishes available, it’s easy to match your design vision with functionality.
Are there disadvantages to porcelain pool tiles?
Aside from lacking the shimmer and iridescence of some glass tiles, porcelain has few downsides. It's one of the most durable and reliable materials for pools. Don’t miss our trending porcelain designs, like zellige-look tiles, perfect for a timeless yet contemporary feel.
Is white porcelain tile good for a swimming pool?
These white porcelain tiles are an exceptional choice for swimming pools. They’re strong, water-resistant, and chemically resilient, making them perfect for pool interiors and surrounds. Their varied styles allow for creative freedom. Just be sure you're using porcelain tiles made for pool use - mass-market varieties often lack the necessary durability. Stick with expert-approved options from trusted retailers like AquaBlu for a beautiful and long-lasting result.
Do porcelain pool tiles require soaking in water before use?
No need to soak porcelain tiles. Thanks to their dense, non-porous composition, soaking isn’t necessary. Just make sure your tiles are clean before installation for the best adhesion results.
How long does pool tile last?
Pool tile longevity depends on material quality, proper installation, and maintenance. Typically, waterline and accent tiles can last 10–20 years, depending on climate and chemical exposure. Premium porcelain tiles, when properly installed and cared for, can last virtually indefinitely. To maximize tile life, follow installation guidelines from the TCNA, use quality products, and hire skilled installers.
What is the most durable pool tile?
Porcelain tiles offer unmatched durability. With minimal water absorption, they resist stains, cracks, and chemical damage. For decking, opt for 2cm-thick porcelain pavers. These thick tiles hold up to heavy use and outdoor exposure. Don’t forget to explore AquaBlu's top-rated porcelain tile offerings and browse our expansive selection of 2cm porcelain pavers and coping.
What thickness should swimming pool tile be?
Tile thickness varies by type and application. Most pool tiles fall between 6mm to 10mm thick. Glass mosaics typically range from 6mm to 8mm, while porcelain tiles used for waterlines or walls range from 8mm to 10mm. For coping and decks, thicker 20mm (2cm) tiles or stone slabs provide extra strength and durability in all climates.
What are the most common pitfalls to avoid with porcelain pool tiles?
Avoid abrasive cleaning tools - they can scratch and dull the surface. Use soft brushes designed for pools. Also, proper installation is critical. Use high-performance, pool-grade adhesives and grouts, and always include a waterproofing membrane like Basecrete to prevent efflorescence and protect your tiles for the long haul.
What type of tiles are best for a swimming pool?
Both porcelain and glass tiles are excellent for pools. Porcelain tiles resist moisture and chemicals while offering timeless style. Glass tiles deliver brilliant color and are just as durable. Choose based on your design goals and budget to achieve stunning results.
What is the best tile to put around a pool?
For safety and style, use purpose-made pool tiles. These are designed to endure freeze/thaw cycles, UV exposure, and chemical contact. On horizontal surfaces, anti-slip tiles are a must. For decking, 2cm-thick porcelain pavers combined with matching coping deliver superior function and aesthetic appeal.
What application areas are suitable for porcelain pool tiles?
Porcelain pool tiles are versatile and suitable for pools, spas, kitchens, bathrooms, and even patios. Their durability and aesthetic range make them an excellent choice indoors or outdoors. Reach out to our team to help you select the ideal tile for your entire space.
What are coping tiles around a pool?
Pool coping tiles finish the edge of a pool, creating a safe, stylish transition between the water and deck. They cover raw edges, prevent water infiltration, and enhance the pool’s appearance. Options include marble, travertine, remodel coping, and porcelain - each offering different styles and textures for your outdoor oasis.
