Final Touches: Perfecting Your Pool Design

When it comes to building a pool, most people focus on the big-ticket decisions - shape, size, features, and materials. But the true magic of a beautifully designed pool lies in the finishing details that take a project from “nice” to “unforgettable.” At Noble Tile Supply, we know that these elements define how a pool looks, feels, and performs for years to come.

Whether you’re a builder guiding a homeowner or a homeowner selecting materials in one of our showrooms, these are the key details that complete a pool design.
 

Attention to Edges & Accents
Small choices make a big difference:

• Step markers to enhance safety and style
• Tile accents on benches, sun shelves, and raised walls
• Mosaic inlays for custom, artistic touches
• Spillway tile to highlight water features

These details help the pool feel intentional and elevated, while also enhancing function.
 

Lighting That Transforms the Mood
Nothing elevates a pool at night like the right lighting plan. Consider:

• LED color-changing lights
• Glow-edge perimeter lighting
• Lit water features
• Underwater accent lights for added dimension

The right lighting enhances safety and creates a resort-like ambiance after dark.
 

Finishing Fixtures & Accessories
Skimmer lids, drain covers, return fittings, and other small components all affect the final look. Matching these elements with your tile or finish adds a refined, cohesive feel.

Builders often choose:

• Color-matched fittings for a seamless aesthetic
• Upgraded fixtures to enhance performance and longevity

It’s a detail homeowners rarely think about—until they see how much more polished the pool looks with the right choices.

The Final Walkthrough: Ensuring Everything Aligns
Once materials and finishes are selected, the final walk-through ensures:

• Tile lines are precise
• Finish color matches expectations
• Coping transitions are smooth
• Water features are aligned
• All details reflect the original design vision

This step is essential to delivering a pool that’s not only beautiful, but flawlessly executed.
