Glass Bead Blasting: Safe, Effective Pool Tile Cleaning
Servicing the East Valley, including Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa and Queen Creek.
Regular pool maintenance keeps your water clean, but it won't remove stubborn calcium deposits and hard water scale from pool tile. Arizona's hard water, high pH levels, and intense desert heat can cause calcium buildup that leaves pool tile dull and unsightly.
Arizona Bead Blasting specializes in professional pool tile cleaning using low-pressure glass bead blasting to safely remove calcium and hard water scale without harsh chemicals. Serving the East Valley and surrounding areas, our process restores the clean, natural beauty of your pool tile while helping protect tile and grout.
How Bead Blasting Cleans Pool Tile
Glass bead blasting — or pool bead blasting — is a shot-blast process that removes calcium deposits, dirt, grime, oil, grit, stains, and chemical residue. Fine glass beads are soft abrasive materials applied to pool walls and tile with a low air pressure stream to remove deposits gently. When done properly, calcium can be removed without damaging the pool surface.
Glass bead blasting cleans deposits from PebbleTec, stone and many other surfaces. It also removes embedded algae and brightens tile grout. Glass bead blasting is a safe and effective technique to completely remove the calcium and scale deposits from your backyard attraction. The results are far better than harsh acids and chemicals, which take more time and money to remove the scale.
What are glass beads?
Glass beads are manufactured from lead-free, soda lime-type glass, containing no free silica that’s made into preformed ball shapes. Glass beads produce a much smoother and brighter finish than angular media. Glass bead blasting produces a clean, bright, satin finish, without causing any damage to PebbleTec or stone. Glass beads are easy to vacuum and can be recycled approximately 30 times. Chemically inert and environmentally friendly, glass bead blasting is a great method for removing calcium deposits.
GLASS BEAD BLASTING FOR PEBBLETEC POOLS
Many media types can remove calcium deposits from a pool’s waterline. However, our experience has taught us that glass beads are the most effective for safely cleaning PebbleTec. It’s aggressive enough to remove the toughest stains and hard water deposits yet gentle enough not to damage tile or grout. Many companies that use pressure washing systems can’t clean PebbleTec, because the high pressure from the water will blow out the pebbles in your pool coating. Not only will glass bead blasting take a fraction of the time that a pumice stone or brush will, but it also does a better and more complete cleaning job than any other media.
A Cleaner, Brighter Pool Starts Here
Bead blasting pool tile requires specialized equipment, training, and experience. Arizona Bead Blasting uses professional low-pressure glass bead blasting to safely remove stubborn calcium deposits and hard water scale while protecting pool tile, grout, PebbleTec, and stone surfaces.
Unlike companies that apply sealers after cleaning, we believe properly cleaned pool tile should not need to be sealed. Polymer-based sealers can fade and become cloudy from Arizona sun and chlorine, leaving tile dull and hazy over time. Our goal is simple: safely remove the buildup and restore the clean, natural beauty of your pool tile.
With professional pool tile cleaning from Arizona Bead Blasting, you get a cleaner, brighter finish without unnecessary chemicals or coatings. We take care of the entire process so you can enjoy beautiful, professionally restored pool tile.
