    • Key Design Features & Benefits
      +
      Textured Surface for Confident Footing
      Smooth tiles can become risky once they are wet. Grimsby features a micro-textured, matte surface inspired by natural sandstone. The result is pleasant underfoot yet provides enhanced grip for pool steps, tanning ledges, spa floors, locker rooms and outdoor showers, helping to reduce the chance of slips around water.

      Stone-Inspired Glaze with Coastal Blue Tones
      Instead of a flat, single-tone color, each chip shows subtle waves of blue, grey and sand hues, echoing the movement of water and rock. This layered glazing gives every sheet a unique, stone-look pattern that hides small stains or water spots more effectively than plain solid tiles, keeping wet areas visually calm and easy to maintain.

      Built for Wet & High-Traffic Areas
      Pools, patios and commercial facilities expose tiles to chlorine, sun and constant foot traffic. Grimsby uses a dense ceramic body with low water absorption and kiln-fired glaze, making it water-resistant, stain-resistant and thermally stable. From residential pool surrounds to hotel spa corridors, the surface is designed to stay intact without fading or peeling.

      Versatile Format for Floors, Walls & Features
      Each 97x97mm (approx. 4"x4") chip is mounted in a 3×3 grid, creating a classic square mosaic that sits comfortably on floors, walls, pool coves, stair risers and waterline bands. The joint lines between chips follow the natural slope of the pool shell or shower floor, making it easier to form drains and gentle curves.

      Coordinated Color Palette for Layered Designs
      The Grimsby series offers a curated selection of coastal shades that can be used alone or mixed in the same project:
      • Grimsby Mist Blue – soft blue-grey with cloudy stone movement
      • Grimsby Sand Tide – warm sand and blue veining, ideal for beach-style pools
      • Grimsby Aqua Dune – turquoise and beige swirls for resort-like terraces
      • Grimsby Sea Grass – green-blue streaks that pair well with natural landscaping
      • Grimsby Ocean Crest – deeper blue waves for accents, borders or deeper pool zones

      Designers can zone a pool using different colors for shallow and deep areas or combine tones to create ombré effects and patterned inlays.

    • Simple Installation Outline
      +
      For professional installers, Grimsby follows standard pool mosaic installation methods:

      Prepare the substrate
      • Ensure concrete or screed is fully cured, structurally sound, clean and level.
      • In wet or submerged areas, apply an appropriate waterproofing membrane according to local standards.

      Set the mosaics
      • Use a high-quality, flexible thin-set mortar suitable for ceramic and pool installations.
      • Comb the mortar evenly with a notched trowel, then press each mesh-backed sheet into place, aligning joints between sheets.

      Check alignment & level
      • Tap gently with a rubber float to fully bed the chips.
      • Adjust sheets before the adhesive skins over to maintain consistent grout lines.

      Grouting
      • Once the mortar has cured, fill joints with a cement-based or epoxy grout designed for submerged or high-moisture areas.
      • Clean the surface with a damp sponge; avoid leaving grout haze on the textured glaze.

      Curing & commissioning
      • Allow adhesive and grout to cure fully before filling the pool or exposing the area to heavy use.
      • Follow grout manufacturer guidelines for first-time cleaning and maintenance.
    • Designer Q&A – Professional Insights
      +
      Q1: Can Grimsby be used on both floors and walls?
      Yes. The 97×97mm format and textured finish are engineered for floor applications in wet zones, while the stone-look glaze is equally attractive on vertical surfaces such as feature walls and pool sides.

      Q2: How does this mosaic tile perform in outdoor and freeze–thaw conditions?
      The dense ceramic body and low water absorption mean Grimsby is suitable for exterior use, including areas exposed to rain and pool water. In regions with freeze–thaw cycles, I recommend pairing it with a suitable waterproofing system and flexible adhesive to ensure long-term stability.

      Q3: Is the surface comfortable for barefoot use around pools?
      Absolutely. The texture is deliberately fine: enough to improve traction but not so rough that it feels abrasive. It’s a good balance for pool steps, children's shallow zones and spa benches where people sit or walk barefoot.

      Q4: Can I mix these ceramic mosaics with glass tile or larger porcelain pavers?
      From a design perspective, they combine beautifully. I often use Grimsby on the pool interior and pair it with large-format porcelain pavers on the surrounding deck, or add a narrow glass tile band at the waterline for extra sparkle. Just ensure all materials are rated for the same exposure conditions.

      Q5: How easy is it to keep the tiles clean in a busy pool or spa?
      The glazed ceramic surface is non-porous and resistant to staining. Routine cleaning with a soft brush and pH-neutral cleaner is usually enough. For commercial facilities, follow your pool maintenance plan; avoid harsh abrasives that could dull the texture over time.
