Tile is often added to fiberglass pools for several functional and aesthetic reasons:
1. Aesthetic Appeal
Tiles enhance the visual appearance of the pool by adding a decorative element. They come in various colors, patterns, and textures that can complement the pool’s surroundings and style. The waterline tile helps to transition the eye from the hardscape around your Leisure Fiberglass Pool to the water color of the pool. This simple touch of tile really makes your fiberglass pool custom and can tie all the colors of the project together.
2. Protecting the Waterline
The tile at the waterline serves as a protective barrier against staining and discoloration caused by oils, sunscreen, and minerals that tend to accumulate at the surface of the water. Fiberglass is more prone to staining than tile, so tiling helps reduce maintenance.
3. Low Maintenance
The water in Middle Tennessee is very hard. The pool water will search for calcium anywhere that it can to help balance itself. The water will pull calcium from the concrete footer around the pool and down the fiberglass wall. By installing tile, you can seal off that space and have an easier waterline to maintain.
