What is a Gunite Pool?

It is a type of inground pool constructed using a pneumatically applied mixture of cement, sand, and water, known as Gunite. This method allows for creating highly customizable pools that seamlessly blend into any landscape or architectural style. Known for their luxurious appearance and their durability, these pools are highly sought-after by many homeowners.

The Construction Process for Gunite Pools

The construction process of a Gunite pool begins with meticulous planning and excavation of the pool area. Once the excavation is complete, a steel framework is installed to provide structural support for the pool’s shape.

Next comes the application of Gunite, which is sprayed onto the steel framework using specialized equipment. This process allows for intricate shapes, curves, and contours, making Gunite pools highly versatile in design.

After applying the Gunite, the pool surface is smoothed and finished with plaster, pebbles, or tile, depending on the homeowner’s preference. This finishing touch enhances the pool’s aesthetic appeal and provides a durable surface for years of enjoyment.
