What's Happening to Your Tile
That white or gray crust along the waterline is mineral scale in most pools. Water evaporates against the tile all day and leaves its minerals behind. Give it a few seasons and the buildup thickens and spreads across the grout.
Some stains have a different cause. Metals in the water leave marks, and so does plain wear on the glaze. We look at photos of your tile before we talk about a fix, because the right approach depends on the surface and what's sitting on it.

How the Cleaning Works
We start by looking at your tile. The type of surface matters, and so does the age of the buildup. From there we pick a cleaning method that lifts the scale and leaves the glaze alone.
A thin film from last summer is a small job. A crust that has been growing for ten years takes more careful work. Photos let us tell you which one you have and what it will cost before anyone drives to your house.

Keeping the Tile You Have
When the tile itself is sound, cleaning brings it back and you skip the cost of retiling.
Some tile is too far gone. If it's cracked or coming loose under the buildup, a cleaning won't hold, and we'll say so when we see your photos.

The calcium removal page explains the white buildup in more detail. Stains across the whole pool surface point to an acid wash. And if the deck joints look rough while you're out there, pool deck sealing is the work we're named for.
