Gunite Pool Construction Process

Here's How We Build It

First, we design your pool based on your property layout, family needs, and budget. No cookie-cutter shapes or generic designs.

Next comes excavation and steel reinforcement installation. We dig precisely and install rebar frameworks that give your pool its structural integrity.

Then we spray the gunite mixture under high pressure, forming the concrete shell. This creates the strongest possible pool construction that molds perfectly to your custom design.

Finally, we install plumbing, electrical, decking, and finishing touches. Your pool gets proper curing time before we fill and balance the water chemistry.

Luxury Gunite Pool Features

What You Get With Gunite

Gunite construction lets you add features that other pool types can’t handle. Integrated spas, negative edges, beach entries, and custom lighting all work seamlessly with gunite’s flexibility.

You can incorporate natural stone, tile work, and water features that create a true resort experience in your backyard. The structural strength supports heavy additions like rock waterfalls or elevated spas.

Jericho homeowners often choose gunite specifically for these customization options. Your pool becomes exactly what you envisioned, not a compromise based on construction limitations.

How long do gunite pools last in New York?

Properly built gunite pools in New York typically last 50+ years with regular maintenance. The concrete shell itself is incredibly durable and handles freeze-thaw cycles much better than other pool types. You’ll need to resurface the interior finish every 10-15 years, but the structural shell remains solid for decades. Many gunite pools built in the 1970s are still functioning perfectly today with proper care and occasional updates.

What does gunite pool installation cost in Jericho?

Custom gunite pools in Jericho typically range from $75,000 to $150,000+ depending on size, features, and site conditions. The wide range reflects the unlimited customization options available with gunite construction. Basic rectangular pools cost less, while complex shapes with integrated spas, waterfalls, and premium finishes cost more. We provide detailed estimates after evaluating your property and discussing your specific needs and preferences.

How long does gunite pool construction take?

Most gunite pool projects in Jericho take 8-12 weeks from start to finish, weather permitting. The timeline includes excavation, steel installation, gunite spraying, plumbing and electrical work, decking installation, and final finishing. Weather delays can extend the schedule, especially during winter months. We provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you updated throughout the process so you know exactly what to expect.

Do I need permits for a gunite pool in Jericho?

Yes, gunite pools in Jericho require building permits and inspections through the Town of Oyster Bay. You’ll also need electrical permits for lighting and equipment installation. If you have an HOA, architectural approval is typically required before construction begins. We handle the permit application process and coordinate all required inspections to ensure your pool meets local codes and regulations. This protects you legally and ensures proper construction standards.

Are gunite pools hard to maintain?

Gunite pools require regular maintenance like any pool, but they’re actually easier to maintain long-term than other types. The concrete surface can handle aggressive cleaning and chemical treatments that might damage vinyl liners. You’ll need weekly chemical balancing, regular skimming, and periodic brushing of the walls. Professional service typically costs $100-150 monthly during swimming season. The durability means fewer repairs and replacements compared to other pool construction methods.

Can gunite pools be built in winter?

Gunite pools can be started in winter, but concrete work requires temperatures above freezing for proper curing. We typically schedule excavation and steel work during colder months, then complete the gunite spraying when temperatures consistently stay above 40°F. This approach lets you get ahead of the spring rush and have your pool ready for summer swimming. Winter construction also means better contractor availability and potentially better pricing on materials and labor.
