If you are thinking of getting a pool or having work done on your old pool then there is one word you need to think of: tiles. Lining a pool with tiles has long been regarded as the premium finish for swimming pools. Tiles are regarded highly due to their appearance and superior durability. On a practical level, they are easier to clean than cement based rendered surfaces such as pebble Crete used in concrete pools and require less maintenance. There are some great options when it comes to tiling your pool, from classic ceramics through to granite tiles, you can pick a tile that suits your style, need and budget, to get the perfect finish each and every time. Tiles provide the final finishing touch for your pool. Aesthetically, they allow you to match or contrast your pool colour and/or pool’s surroundings. Tiles can also help to make the pool bluer by using a dark blue waterline tile with a light coloured interior. Furthermore, tiles avoid having a dry, washed out look between the coping and the water that you can get with render finishes. Waterline tiles greatly increase the ease of cleaning the dirt that deposits on the walls of the pool at the waterline. On fibreglass pools, waterline tiles give the illusion that the pool is constructed from concrete, as tiles are synonymous with concrete pools. Additionally, they protect the gel coat from the sun’s rays. Fully tiling a pool is certainly regarded as the premium finish for concrete pools. Tiles are extremely durable as well as offering almost limitless design choices. They look fantastic, are easy to maintain and most importantly are gentle on your feet due to their silky smoothness. There are two main types of tiles commonly employed. These are glass mosaics and glazed ceramic mosaics. To find a company that can give you the best tiling, from paving stones through to terracotta, then you need to get online. Make sure you look for a company that have years of experience and a wide range of tiles to choose from. Then the only thing you have to work out is which tiles and pattern to choose, do you go for travertine tiles, or do you go for quartzite? Big choices, but they are fun choices.
