SERVICE

Pool tiles begin to crack after sometime has passed, and most of them just simply break apart due to the force put on them by stepping; your only approach to a repair like this is to remove those damaged times and begin to plan for repair.

Replacing the times may be your most permanent solution rather than just repairing them with grout like some people do to save time and also to save some money too.

When you tiles simply crack without breaking, you may get away with a repair method rather then a replacement; if your budget allows it though just change them instead.

I began this swimming pool tile repair project with removing all the cracked times first. I then continued into carefully cleaning my surface area. Doing the cleanup will allow the thin-set to stick stronger due to its dry clean surface.

The smart approach here is to remove the grout in between good and bad tiles first, that way when you get ready to chisel the cracked tile out it does not damage the good one next to it; do this step with a flat tool to fit perfectly in between the two.

When you have all the tiles removed, and you also have the surface areas cleaned; you may now lay the thin-set across the surface and after the tiles side by side using the spacers. When you have giving the thin-set at least 1 hour to cure, you may now grout the tile lines and also after at least 15 minutes you may then wipe the dried grout with a wet Sponge.
