We have some calcium stains on the tile of our pool/spa combo. The tile is original from when the pool was built in 2010 (we just moved into the house and took over the pool earlier this year).
A local pool company sent an e-mail advertisement for a bead blasting service which they claim "will remove the white, crusty build up on your pool tile and make your tile look good as new." Their quote for our pool/spa is $1,300.
I was wondering what anyone thinks of using bead blasting to clean the tile? Are there any risks that the bead blasting could hurt the tile? Would this help extend the life of the tile so can wait some more time before replacing it? Are there alternatives to bead blasting that we should consider?
I'm attaching some pics of the calcium buildup on the tile, plus the whole pool/spa setup.
Thanks for any advice that you have!
