Bespoke finishes, carefully kept.
If your pool in Alderley Edge has bespoke mosaic, feature borders or natural stone around it, a repair has two jobs: fix what has failed and leave the original look intact. We carry out swimming pool tiling, tile repairs and regrouting in Alderley Edge with both in mind.
Repairs that do not stand out
Feature mosaics, custom colours and older tile ranges can be hard to match. We look for the closest suitable replacement, hold it against the existing finish in place, and talk through where any small difference would be least noticeable.
Grout colour matters as much. A regrout in the wrong shade can change the character of a pool, so the colour is agreed before we start.
If no match can be found, we can sometimes take original tiles from a less visible spot, such as behind a ladder or in a recess, use them where they will be seen, and put the new tiles in their place. We agree that with you first.

Pool halls, terraces and outdoor pools
Some homes have an outdoor pool or terrace alongside an indoor pool. External tiling has to cope with frost and repeated wetting and drying, so the tiles, adhesive, grout and movement joints all need more thought.
A poolside floor is walked on wet and barefoot. When a surround is renewed, we talk about slip resistance as well as looks.
Where a pool hall opens on to a terrace, the change from inside to outside needs a properly detailed joint. We check how these junctions were formed and whether they still do their job.
Close to our Warrington base
Alderley Edge is a short drive from Warrington, as are Wilmslow, Prestbury, Macclesfield and Knutsford. We take on private pools of every size here, and hotel and club pools nearby, and we work on pools right across the UK.
Stone, glass and mixed finishes
Higher-specification pools often mix materials: glass mosaic in the pool, natural stone on the surround, porcelain in the pool room. Each reacts differently to cleaners, grouts and adhesives.
We check compatibility before cleaning or regrouting and try products on a small area first. A chemical clean that is fine on porcelain, for example, can mark marble and many limestones, so the product has to suit the surface. Get it wrong and a refresh turns into a repair.
If the pool room is part of a wider renovation, we can advise on where the tiling fits in the order of trades.
Can you repair a damaged mosaic emblem in an Alderley Edge pool?
Often, yes. Depending on what tiles are available, we lift and replace damaged pieces or rebuild a section. We tell you how close a match is likely to be before any tiles come up.
Is it possible to change grout colour when regrouting?
Yes, a regrout is a chance to change colour. Look at a cured sample against the tiles first, because grout often dries to a different shade from how it looks when wet.
Do you tile outdoor pool terraces?
Yes. We take on external tiling and pool surrounds, using frost-resistant tiles and products suited to outdoor use, with movement joints left flexible.
