Your Tiling Window Is
Measured in Days, Not Months
A pool build has one tiling window — after the shell cures, before the client expects to see water. Tile that arrives too early sits on site taking up space and risking damage. Tile that arrives too late pushes your whole schedule and burns your crew's paid days waiting.
On top of that timing pressure, you're the one standing in front of a local inspector who wants to see frost-proof certification and DCOF slip data before signing off — not a generic spec sheet that doesn't actually answer the question being asked.
The Five Questions Every Pool Builder Asks First
Straight answers, no sales pitch — this is what governs every pool project quote we send.
MOQ
From 50 m² per project — enough for a single residential pool interior and waterline. No container minimum, so a boutique pool builder can order for one job at a time.
Lead Time
Stocked colours ship within 7 days — timed to land after your shell's 28-day minimum cure. Custom gradients or colours take 30–45 days; tell us your pour date and we work backward from it.
Packaging
Paper-face mounted sheets available on request for submerged applications — full tile-to-thinset contact once the paper is removed, no mesh interference on pool floors and walls.
Certifications
ASTM C1026 frost-proof rating, DCOF ≥0.60 slip resistance data, and chlorine/salt-water resistance documentation — issued per order, ready for your local inspector.
Project Support
Installation guidance covering thinset coverage, epoxy grout cure time and fill-rate recommendations — written for your crew, not just your procurement team.
Series Most Specified by Pool Builders
Based on project history from our pool contractor client base — these are the categories that hold up under years of chlorine, sun and foot traffic.
From Shell Pour to Fill Day
Project Brief
Share pool size, colour direction and your shell pour date. We work backward to confirm a delivery date.
Sample Confirmation
Physical samples sent for client sign-off — critical for gradient or custom colour choices before ordering.
Production Scheduling
Order timed to your cure schedule — stock colours 7 days, custom colours 30–45 days from approval.
Delivery to Site or Yard
Tile lands within your tiling window — not weeks early taking up storage, not late holding up your crew.
Installation Support
Technical questions from your crew during tiling route to a real person, not a ticket queue — same day where possible.
We Work Backward From Your Fill Date
Pool construction has a fixed sequence: shell pour, minimum 28-day cure, tiling, grout cure, then fill. Tile that shows up at the wrong point in that sequence either sits idle risking damage, or arrives too late and stalls your crew. We plan every order around your actual timeline, not a generic dispatch schedule.
Tile Landed the Day Cure Time Ended — Zero Downtime
"We gave them our pour date and they worked the delivery around it. Tile showed up exactly when our crew was ready to start — no storage headache, no waiting around. Inspector signed off on the DCOF paperwork without a second question."
