FAQ'S
What is the most expensive pool finish?
Glass Mosaic tiles are generally considered to be the most expensive pool finish. Often chosen for their luxurious appearance, durability, and ability to create intricate designs, they generally come with higher material and installation costs compared to other finishes like stone or pebbles.
Which pool finishes last the longest?
Glass mosaic tiles and polished stone such as PebbleTec, tend to have the longest lifespan. If properly maintained they can last 20-30 years or more. This is because they are extremely durable, resistant to wear, discoloration, and harsh chemicals.
Which pool finish is easiest to maintain?
Polished aggregate finishes such as pebbles and stones are among the easiest to maintain. Their smooth surface is highly resistant to staining and the buildup of algae, which means they don’t need cleaning as often as standard plaster finishes. This also means that they will continue to retain the quality of their finish for many years.
What type of pool finish is most common?
Standard white plaster, or marcite, is the most common pool finish. It’s cost-effective, widely available, and provides a clean, classic look. However, it typically has a shorter lifespan compared to more premium finishes.
What’s the alternative to tiling a pool?
Alternatives to tiling include plaster, aggregate finishes, or vinyl liners. Aggregate finishes, like exposed pebbles, offer a textured and durable surface, while vinyl liners provide a cost-effective, smooth option for pool interiors.
