Many factors need to
be addressed when choosing pool and changing room surfacing; drainage,
durability and anti-slip issues to name but a few.
The Windle family’s
pool sides were finished with carpet tiles which were becoming increasingly
dirty. They had considered several
options including rubber crumb and ceramic tiles, but long-term good looks were
a deciding factor so they continued their quest to find a flooring system which
would meet all their requirements which included safety for young children. Searching
on the internet brought them to the Tact website where they were impressed with
the versatile and environmentally friendly nature of Tact’s ingenious
interlocking floor systems, choosing Sand coloured Piazza Grade.
As the original
substrate was uneven, Tact’s contract team levelled up the floor and coping
stones, then applied a special primer to seal the concrete against the pool
chemicals before laying Piazza. The
tiles were also extended into the changing and shower room next door.
The installation
including the coating works took just two days.
Chris Windle was amazed at the final results. ‘Not only does the surface look fantastic, but
it is so simple to clean. Its’ anti-slip
properties are also reassuring with our grandchildren playing in the pool
regularly. An added bonus is the tiles
are easily lifted to effect access to skimmers and plumbing repairs without
damage to the TactTiles’.
Another perfect pool
project from the Team at Tact!
