tile repair

Hi all, We have a fully tiled concrete pool built circa 1970 that's having some trouble this summer in Sydney, Australia. I'm finding the tiles are coming away from the pool surface in various places. This has happened before but not anywhere near as frequently as this summer. We bought the...

I have two related questions regarding tile and grout. In-ground 13,000 gallon gunite chlorine pool. Location: McKinney, Texas Pool Age: 18 years Q1: I've had one small section of 4 tile pieces that have fallen off. What would be the best product to re-attach the tiles? Since it's just...

Some of my pool tiles are cracked/chipped and coming off from the top. How do I glue it back? Is caulking good enough or should I get something else?

I have a pool slide where the tiles have been damaged by the two big Texas freezes over the last two years -- guessing water got underneath the tile and lifted it, causing a hunk to fall off and cracks to appear. I contacted one pool remodeling company to come out and bid and they want $9,000...

I have a waterline tile with 1"x2" little tiles. 3 consecutive ones fell off a couple of months ago. I want to repair it; what do I need to use as mud? Is there a mud I can use that will not require me to drain water and wait for it to be dry before application? Thank you. UPDATE: After doing...

Hi! We purchased a home in September of 2021 which came with a less than 10 year old Fiberglass Pool and Splash Pool. The Splash Pool drains into the main pool through 3 spillways. We live in Indiana and had a particularly hard winter. During some spring clean up we noticed that some of the...

We're building a gunite, in-ground pool and planning to go with a Primera Stone plaster finish. We included trim tile (step and bench edges) in our plans, but now we're being told that if we do that, there is no way to repair it down the road without re-plastering that area of the pool. Does...

Was nearing completion on a project. Waterline tile bought at floor and decor (dream Icelandic blue) and verified to be OK for pool use. Builder just wanted us to make sure before use, which we did, and showed him the website and the label at floor and decor, so it was installed. One week after...

Sooo...after the 'great freeze' of 2021 (second pic) it was clear that the tile on the waterfall was starting to separate, mostly near the corners, and no doubt due to frost getting under it. The tile on top has already been replaced and regrouted with an epoxy grout, but on the sides, it's the...

A bunch of porcelain tiles have separated from above the waterline in my faux infinity edge pool. What’s the best way to repair? Marine epoxy? Thinset? Do I need to grind out the old thinset first? Waterline is usually around the 3rd tile down. Pool is 6 years old. We were in the big Texas...
