Your pool is as much a part of your home as the living room or the master bedroom, and as such it should get the same attention to detail when it comes to design as any other room. In fact, your outdoor oasis can be seen by the neighbors, so you may want to put even more thought and work into the design than you would the average room in your house! Tile is a versatile and attractive way to liven up the design of your pool, and Poolman's Phoenix pool service offers the tile replacement and installation services that will give you a tip-top tile job.
Designing the perfect pool for you
A pool is a place where family and friends gather for everyday activities as well as special occasions, and every time there is a gathering, people ought to see the pool owner's personality reflected in the pool's design. Home Design Lover suggested prioritizing safety when it comes to installing a tile floor in your pool or the surface around your pool. Slip-resistant tiles are available, and are a wise investment considering the likelihood that the area will be wet more often than not. Unless you plan on outfitting your kids and guests with helmets, slip-resistant tiles are a must.
Get creative and have fun with it!
The design you choose should be fun and inviting. Decorative tiles with various prints are available if you're looking for something a little more out of the box. Some tiles come with painting of aquatic creatures that will add a nature vibe to your man made swimming hole. Animals such as turtles, dolphins and tropical fish will awe your guests, and the kids will love them too! Don't limit yourself to animals either – make the pool pop with tiles modeled after tropical flowers or leafy green vines. Consult your Phoenix pool service expert to figure out what works best for you.
If you're going for a style that's more on the classic side, but still gorgeous, there are plenty of designs that can be achieved through the creative arrangement of tiles. A background of light blue tile with a streak of deep blue tile running through it can create the illusion of an underwater river in your pool.
