Do I Need a Waterline?

Pool waterline tiles are adhered to the finish of the swimming pool, usually as a 6 inches strip running along the waterline. This strip of tiles helps you achieve a premium surface in your swimming pool by lining it, and serves as a perfect design element in your swimming pool design.

To consider if waterline tile is something essential to your pool, think of the beautiful picture: how does the pool deck design, copying, or surrounding landscaping influence the overall aesthetic? Pool waterline tile is generally half-submerged in the pool water allowing for the top 3 inches to be visible, however, 3 inches can have an important impact on the whole landscape design.

It’s not just about looks when it comes to choosing pool waterline tiles. There’s a practical element to this detail. Discoloration can occur at the point where the pool water ends, thanks to sunscreen, pool chemicals, etc. Kind of like a ring around the collar. Installing waterline tiles around the pool is a nice way to camouflage this transition and trick your eye, therefore, you will never see a difference in color. If you’re working with a budget but prefer the look of an elegantly tiled swimming pool, simply tiling the pool waterline can be a smaller investment than fully tilling the pool interior wall. The determination is yours.
