A Discount Pool & Patio Company
You know what gives away a pool’s age faster than anything? The tile. That dated border tile from the ’90s, the faded blues that used to be vibrant, the cracked and missing pieces that you’ve been meaning to replace for years. Every time you look at it, you’re reminded that your pool needs updating. And when guests come over? They notice too, even if they’re too polite to mention it.
Poolside Renos replaces pool tile across Broward County with modern options that completely change how your pool looks. Glass tile that catches the light, contemporary styles that feel current, durable materials that actually hold up to Florida sun and pool chemicals. We’ve been doing tile work since 1998, so we’ve seen every installation challenge and figured out how to handle Florida’s conditions.
One family-owned team that treats your pool like we’d want ours treated. No cutting corners, no rushing the work, just quality tile installation that makes your pool look like it belongs in this decade.
Pool tile seems straightforward until contractors mess it up. Poor tile selection means colors that fade or materials that deteriorate in pool environments. Sloppy installation means uneven grout lines, tiles that pop off within months, or waterline tile that doesn’t actually sit at the waterline. Then there’s the aesthetic side, contractors who don’t understand design pick tiles that clash with your pool surface or look cheap despite costing real money.
Three Ways Bad Contractors Ruin Pool Tile Projects
Not all tile handles pool conditions equally. Some materials fade in chlorine. Others deteriorate in salt water. Some aren’t rated for freeze-thaw cycles (yes, this matters even in Florida during cold snaps). Contractors who don’t specialize in pools use whatever tile looks pretty at the supply house without understanding how it performs in pool environments. Two years later, your tile looks terrible and they’re long gone.
Pool tile needs specific thin-set, proper surface prep, and correct installation techniques to handle constant water exposure and the movement pools naturally experience. Skip proper prep or use the wrong adhesive, and tiles start popping off. Some contractors even install tile while the pool surface is still curing, guaranteeing failure. We see these mistakes constantly when we’re called to fix other people’s work.
Tile selection involves understanding how colors work with your pool surface, how patterns flow around curves and steps, and how the finished product looks from different angles. Contractors without design sense pick tile randomly, install it without planning transitions, and deliver results that technically function but look amateurish. Your pool deserves better than “close enough.”
Here’s what most people don’t realize:
Pool tile isn’t just decorative, it serves functional purposes like protecting the pool shell at the waterline and creating visual interest. But it also dramatically affects how your entire pool looks. The right tile elevates everything. The wrong tile makes even a freshly resurfaced pool look dated or cheap. This is where experience and design sense matter as much as installation skills.
At Poolside Renos, we’ve replaced pool tile on thousands of pools across Broward County. We understand which materials hold up in Florida conditions, how to prep surfaces for lasting adhesion, and how to select and install tile that makes your pool look cohesive and current. Your tile will still look great five years from now because we don’t cut corners on materials or installation.
Tired of tile that looks dated or falls off?
Step 1: Free Consultation & Tile Selection
We come out, assess your current tile situation, and discuss what you’re looking for. Modern glass tile, classic porcelain, natural stone accents, we walk through options that work with your pool surface and style preferences. You see actual samples in our showroom so you understand how different tiles look in natural light and how colors interact with water. We give you honest feedback about what we think works best without pushing any particular direction.
Step 2: Detailed Written Estimate
You get a comprehensive proposal covering tile removal (if needed), surface prep, tile material, installation labor, and grouting. Everything’s itemized clearly so you understand where your money goes. No vague line items that mysteriously increase when the project starts. What we quote is what you pay, assuming we don’t discover actual structural issues (rare but sometimes happens with older pools).
Step 3: Scheduling That Works for You
We schedule your tile replacement with realistic timelines. Most waterline tile replacement takes 3-5 days depending on pool size and tile complexity. Full tile replacement (waterline, steps, spa, features) takes longer. We’re upfront about timing and coordinate around your schedule when possible. We know you want to use your pool, we work efficiently to minimize downtime.
Step 4: Tile Removal & Surface Preparation
If we’re replacing existing tile, we carefully remove the old tile without damaging the underlying surface. This takes patience and the right tools, contractors who rush this step cause damage that costs more to fix than they saved in time. We clean and prep the surface properly for new tile installation because proper prep determines whether tiles stay put or pop off.
Step 5: Layout Planning & Dry Fitting
Before any thin-set gets mixed, we plan the layout. Where do tiles start and stop? How do we handle curves, steps, and transitions? With decorative accent tiles, where do they go for best visual impact? We dry fit to make sure everything works before committing. This eliminates surprises and ensures the finished product looks intentional.
Step 6: Professional Installation
Our crews install tile using pool-specific thin-set and proper techniques for underwater applications. Tiles get set with consistent spacing, proper coverage, and attention to alignment. We work methodically because sloppy tile work is impossible to hide once it’s done. Either it looks professional or it doesn’t, there’s no middle ground.
Step 7: Grouting & Sealing
We use quality grout appropriate for pool environments, materials that resist chemicals, hold up to constant water exposure, and maintain their appearance long-term. Grout lines get finished properly and cleaned thoroughly. For certain tile types, we apply appropriate sealers to protect the installation and extend its life.
Step 8: Final Walkthrough & Pool Startup
We walk everything with you, explain care instructions, and answer questions about your new tile. We coordinate pool refilling and startup to make sure everything’s done in the right sequence. We don’t consider the job complete until you’re happy with how everything looks and your pool is ready to use.
Ready for tile that actually makes your pool look current?
We Specialize in Pool Tile, Not Just Tile
Pool tile is different from bathroom tile or kitchen backsplashes. It deals with constant water exposure, pool chemicals, UV radiation, and thermal cycling. We understand which materials perform well in these conditions and which ones fail. This specialization matters, pool tile isn’t something you figure out as you go.
Family-Owned Since 1998
We’re local owners who’ve been part of Broward County for over 25 years. Your neighbors are our neighbors. We see customers around town, at restaurants, at community events. Our reputation is personal and local. We do quality work because our name and our family’s livelihood depend on it. That creates accountability you don’t get from national chains or rotating crews.
Design Sense That Elevates Your Pool
We don’t just install tile, we help you choose tile that works with your pool surface, complements your deck, and creates the aesthetic you’re after. Contemporary, classic, colorful, understated, we guide you toward options that achieve your vision. This design component is what separates beautiful pools from pools that just have new tile.
Materials We Trust
We work with suppliers who provide quality tile that performs well in Florida pool environments. We’ve tested materials over thousands of installations and know what lasts. You’re investing in tile that should look great for 10-15+ years, we make sure the materials we use actually deliver on that expectation.
We Focus on Quality Over Volume
We work primarily with homeowners in Weston, Boca Raton, Parkland and Coral Springs areas where people understand that quality work costs more than cheap work and they value the difference. We’re not trying to do maximum tile jobs per month. We’re trying to do excellent work on every pool we touch.
Licensed, Insured, Here When You Need Us
Full licensing, comprehensive insurance, and we’re not disappearing after installation. We’ve been here 25+ years and we’ll be here 25+ more. If you have questions or concerns years down the road, we’re still here answering the phone. That reliability matters more than people realize until they need it.
