Custom gunite pools designed for your backyard and built to last generations in Nassau County.
You’re not just getting a pool. You’re creating the space where your family will make memories for decades to come.
Gunite construction means your pool can take any shape you envision. That awkward corner of your yard? We’ll design around it. Want a spa that flows seamlessly into the main pool? Done. Thinking about a beach entry or infinity edge? All possible with gunite’s flexibility.
While your neighbors are dealing with liner replacements and structural issues, you’ll be enjoying a pool that gets better with age. Gunite pools in Lawrence typically last 50+ years because the material actually strengthens over time. Your investment pays dividends not just in daily enjoyment, but in property value that consistently outperforms other pool types in Nassau County’s competitive real estate market.
JAS Aquatics has been building custom gunite pools throughout Nassau County for years, and we understand what works in Lawrence’s unique environment. We know the soil conditions, the permit requirements, and the climate challenges that affect every pool we build.
You won’t find us cutting corners or using subpar materials. Every gunite pool we install uses the same commercial-grade construction methods, whether you’re in Lawrence, Cedarhurst, or anywhere else on the South Shore.
We handle everything from initial design through final inspection, so you’re not juggling multiple contractors or wondering who’s responsible when questions arise. One team, one point of contact, one commitment to getting your pool right the first time.
First, we’ll survey your property and discuss your vision. We’re looking at drainage, access for equipment, setback requirements, and how the pool integrates with your existing landscape. This isn’t a sales pitch – it’s a technical evaluation to make sure your project succeeds.
Next comes excavation and steel reinforcement installation. We dig precisely to engineered specifications and place rebar that creates the structural skeleton of your pool. This steel framework is what gives gunite pools their legendary strength and longevity.
Then we spray the gunite mixture under high pressure against the steel framework. This creates a monolithic concrete shell that’s incredibly strong and completely customizable. After curing, we apply your chosen interior finish – whether that’s traditional plaster, aggregate, or premium tile – and install all equipment and features.
Final steps include filling, balancing the water chemistry, and walking you through everything you need to know about your new pool. From start to finish, most gunite pool projects in Lawrence take 8-12 weeks, depending on complexity and weather.

Gunite gives you design freedom that other pool types simply can’t match. Want a kidney shape that perfectly fits your yard? Easy. Thinking about multiple levels or a connected spa? No problem. Planning an infinity edge that overlooks your landscaping? Gunite makes it possible.
The construction process also means you can integrate features that would be impossible or expensive to add later. Built-in seating, swim-up bars, beach entries, waterfalls, grottos – all of these become part of the pool’s structure rather than add-on components that might fail or look artificial.
In Lawrence’s climate, gunite’s durability really shines. While vinyl liners crack in cold weather and fiberglass can develop stress fractures, properly built gunite pools handle freeze-thaw cycles without issue. You’re not looking at liner replacements every 8-10 years or gel coat repairs. Just regular maintenance and decades of reliable performance.
