Custom gunite pools designed for Long Island living, built to last generations.
You’re not just getting a pool. You’re getting a backyard that works for your family for decades.
Gunite construction means your pool can be any shape, any size, any depth you want. No cookie-cutter designs. No limitations from pre-formed shells. Just your vision, engineered to handle everything Long Island weather throws at it.
The concrete shell we spray forms the strongest possible foundation. It flexes with ground movement, handles freeze-thaw cycles, and gives you options other pool types simply can’t match. Want a shallow play area that gradually slopes to an 8-foot deep end? Easy. Thinking about an attached spa or infinity edge? We build it as one seamless structure.
Your property value jumps the day we finish. But more importantly, you get that backyard retreat you’ve been picturing – the one where summer evenings actually happen at home instead of somewhere else.
We’ve been building custom gunite pools across Nassau County for years. We understand what works in Merrick’s soil conditions and climate.
Every project starts with the local building requirements and HOA considerations that matter in your neighborhood. We know which permits you need, how long they actually take, and what inspectors look for.
You’re working with contractors who’ve solved the drainage issues, soil challenges, and access problems that come up in established Long Island communities. We’ve built pools in backyards just like yours, for families with the same expectations you have.
First, we design your pool around how you actually want to use it. That means talking through everything from how often you entertain to whether your kids are swimmers or just want to splash around. The design phase includes 3D renderings so you see exactly what you’re getting.
Excavation happens next. We mark utilities, pull permits, and dig precisely to engineering specifications. The steel rebar framework goes in first – this is what gives your pool its structural strength for the next 50 years.
Then comes the gunite application. We spray the concrete mixture at high pressure, building up the shell in layers. This creates a monolithic structure that’s incredibly strong and completely waterproof. After curing, we apply your chosen finish – plaster, aggregate, or tile.
Finally, we install your equipment, fill the pool, and balance the water chemistry. You get a complete walkthrough of every system, plus maintenance guidance to keep everything running perfectly.
Ready to get started?
Your gunite pool installation covers everything from initial design through final startup. That includes all permits, excavation, steel reinforcement, gunite application, plumbing, electrical, equipment installation, and finish work.
We handle the details that matter in Merrick specifically. Proper drainage systems that work with local soil conditions. Equipment placement that meets setback requirements. Electrical work that passes Nassau County inspections the first time.
You also get options that only gunite construction allows. Built-in spas, beach entries, swim-up bars, grottos, and waterfalls all become part of the same concrete structure. No separate components that might leak or shift over time.
The equipment package includes variable-speed pumps, automated chemical systems, and energy-efficient heaters. Everything is sized correctly for your specific pool volume and usage patterns, not just grabbed off a shelf.
