Glass Tile in Pools & Spas

Glass tile's rising popularity in pool design is due to both functional qualities and versatility in design. Because glass tiles are waterproof, no additional treatment is required to reinforce or increase water resistance to tile surfaces. Glass pool tiles won't warp or fade and are easy to clean and maintain, helping them to stay looking new for many years after their installation.

Design-wise, glass tiles are equally ideal for pool surfaces. Iridescent glass tiles glow when exposed to light. When they are submerged in water, this affect is only amplified. Well-lit glass tiles glisten and reflect light back into the water. Because of their ability to manipulate and magnify light, glass tiled pools are bright, clear, and sparkle from every angle.

Glass tiles have a natural look that perfectly complements lagoon style pools. The color, size, and finish of tiles will have a major affect on the finished look of the pool and so all of these attributes must be carefully considered during the design process. Incorporating a gradient blend on walls, for example creates the appearance of moving water, perfect for the space surrounding a waterfall or the swirling waves of an attached hot tub.

Because glass tiles can be produced in such a wide variety of shapes, colors, and finishes, they can be easily incorporated in to any pool décor, be it traditional, modern, or natural.
