Custom gunite pools designed for Long Island living, built to last generations.
Your backyard transforms into the space your family actually uses. No more wondering what to do on summer weekends or where to host gatherings that people remember.
Gunite pools handle Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles without cracking. They’re built into the ground permanently, becoming part of your property’s foundation rather than something sitting on top of it.
You get exactly the shape, depth, and features you want because gunite molds to any design. Add a spa, beach entry, or custom lighting—it’s all possible when you’re not limited by pre-formed shells.
JAS Aquatics has been building gunite pools on Long Island for years, and we understand what works here. Sandy soil, coastal weather, and local building codes all factor into how your pool gets constructed.
We’ve worked through every permitting office in Suffolk County. We know which inspectors are thorough and which engineering requirements apply to your specific lot.
Most importantly, we build pools that our own families would swim in. That means proper steel reinforcement, quality plumbing, and equipment that won’t need replacing in five years.
First, we design your pool around how you’ll actually use it. Family with young kids needs different depths than empty nesters who want a lap pool. We measure your yard, check utility lines, and create plans that work with your space.
Excavation happens fast—usually one day for most residential pools. Then comes steel reinforcement, which is where experience matters. Long Island’s soil shifts, so the rebar grid needs to be engineered correctly.
Gunite application is the critical day. It’s a concrete mixture sprayed at high pressure to create your pool’s structure. This has to be done right the first time, and it takes a skilled crew to get proper thickness and coverage throughout the entire shell.

Gunite pools are permanent structures that become part of your property’s foundation. Unlike vinyl liners that need replacement every 7-10 years, or fiberglass shells that can pop out of unstable ground, gunite pools are built to last decades.
You can add features that other pool types can’t accommodate. Infinity edges, beach entries, integrated spas, and custom lighting all work because gunite forms to any shape. Want to change something later? Gunite can be modified and expanded.
The surface options give you choices beyond basic plaster. Aggregate finishes, tile, and natural stone all bond permanently to gunite. Your pool’s appearance stays consistent year after year without the fading or staining that affects other materials.
