Gunite Pool FAQ's

What is gunite?

Gunite is a concrete blend of sand, cement, and water that’s applied through a high-pressure hose. Once it cures (dries), gunite becomes rock hard, forming a thick, solid structure.

Why does a concrete pool take longer than a fiberglass pool to install?

A fiberglass shell goes right into the yard as soon as it is dug, with the plumbing and stone base installed. With a concrete pool, the gunite or shotcrete needs to cure and the final finish needs to be brushed and cared for up to 30 days after installation.

A stone patio surrounds a curvy fiberglass pool with built-in fountains, lounge chairs, potted plants, and a small house in the background, bordered by trees—perfect for relaxing or entertaining with outdoor living at its finest.

Stone-lined hot tub and pool with lounge chairs and striped umbrella, overlooking a grassy waterfront and distant houses under a cloudy sky—perfect for enjoying outdoor living.
