Choosing pool surround tiles

Slip resistance comes first

Pool surrounds are wet, barefoot areas, so they need one of the higher slip ratings under AS 4586. Ask us for the tested rating of each range.

Light colours stay cooler

Light sand, ivory and pale grey tiles reflect more heat than dark colours, which makes them more comfortable underfoot in summer.

Coping and edges

Many porcelain ranges can be fabricated into pool coping with a rounded or square edge so the surround matches the edge of the pool. Talk to our team about the options for your range.

Feature walls

Glass and gloss mosaics make a striking water-line or spa feature.
