April 27, 2017

Once the basic structure of your in-ground pool is poured in the desirable shape, it is time to provide it with an attractive finish. Many pool owners opt for tiles to accomplish this task. The reason for this is the fact that there are numerous pool tiling ideas and material options suitable for transforming a plain pool into a work of art. Refer to our information below to learn additional facts about this topic.

Ideas for Tiling Your Pool

• Blue up the bottom and sides to enhance not only the interior of the pool, but also the shade of the water. Your water will look almost as blue as the tile depending upon how deep the shade of tile is that you select for the pool finish. By choosing this idea, you will make a bold statement, whether you select large or small tiles.
• Install a subtle green to soften the appearance of your pool. It will provide the area with a relaxing ambiance along with an attractive accent shade.
• Create a mosaic with tiles of any design that you desire since there are almost unlimited possibilities.
• Tiles in grays and browns will create a rocky-looking interior for your pool. Another choice similar to this is to simulate a river or stream bed with an aggregate finish. While this is not individual tiles, it is an option other than concrete or gunite that you may want to consider.

Tile Material Options

• Glass makes tiles shine and gleam in the sunlight. No other materials shimmer quite like this one does in the pool.
• Ceramic tiles offer a wide assortment of colours and also provide the ideal material for creating mosaics in your pool. You can achieve a traditional finish if you prefer with them, the choice is yours. Also, you can select from matte or glossy ceramic tiles.
• Natural stone is just stone harvested from the ground that professionals hone into different sizes of tiles. Install large ones for a bold design or smaller ones to create a subtler look. Of course, you can combine sizes and colours for a unique design.
• Aggregate, while not a tile, is an attractive finish that combines plaster with small pieces or river stones, granite, glass beads or granite and provides your pool with the look and feel of a river or stream bed.
