North Wales pool tiling, done while the guests are away.

Holiday parks, hotels and private homes

Along the North Wales coast there are holiday parks and hotels with indoor pools, often leisure pools with mosaic, curved walls and shallow play areas. Inland there are public leisure and school pools, and private pools in rural homes.

A fixed closure and a fixed reopening date

For a seasonal business, every week spent scoping and waiting for tiles is a week not spent on the work. Inspect late in the season and most of that is done before the closure starts.

Winter brings its own problem. A cold, unheated pool hall slows curing badly, so heating and ventilation during the works need agreeing early. Cure and refill times go into the programme from the start.

• Inspect during or just after the main season
• Order matched tiles early
• Keep the pool hall heated and ventilated for curing
• Leave a margin before reopening

Mosaic, curves and beach entries

Mosaic murals, curved steps and sloping beach entries are slow, careful work to repair. We discuss what is achievable before starting, including where an exact mosaic match will not be possible.

For longer jobs along the coast, the team stays locally. Changing rooms and poolside areas can usually go into the same off-season programme.

Rural homes

For a private pool well away from the coast, a clear set of photos tells us whether a visit is needed now and what it will involve. Several small repairs can often be grouped into one planned visit.
