Pool Coping Colors
- Almost silver, pewter is more muted and a shade darker. This color is a medium gray that slightly darkens the water, giving the pool a more contemporary look than lighter pool coping shades.
- This version of white is slightly off, hiding mild dirt from foot traffic better than bright white. This color still shows other dirt very easily and reflects sunlight, which can be uncomfortable on very sunny days without sunglasses.
- A dark, almost vermilion red, burgundy darkens the water a great deal when used to tint the whole of the pool. Because of this, burgundy is more regularly used as an accent color, surrounding the perimeter of the pool but not penetrating far below the water.
- With a shade reminiscent of baked clay, terracotta brings a natural feel to the pool. Although this color darkens the water, it works well as a contemporary pool color as well as an accent color for the perimeter of the pool.
- This shade is a light and muted pink dampened by a shade of purple. The shade slightly darkens a pool's interior and water but brings an organic feel to the pool.
- Seafoam green is used both as a main color and an accent color for pool coping. This shade resembles the green of the beach surf as it rolls in from the blue of the ocean. The color has a similar effect on water in the pool, with bluer water toward the center and green near the edges.
- A shade darker than the sparkling blue of the water, teal slightly darkens the pool water, giving it the almost turquoise look of an island shore or lagoon. This color works well with white accents.
- A bright red, Sunset red works well as an accent color and as part of a pattern. This color is compatible with both light and dark colored pools but will darken the pool water if used underwater.
