Concrete construction that transforms your backyard into a permanent luxury retreat designed exactly how you want it.
You’re not just getting a pool. You’re getting a backyard centerpiece that your family will use for decades without the headaches that come with cheaper alternatives.
Gunite pools don’t need liner replacements every few years like vinyl pools. They don’t crack like fiberglass when the ground shifts. They’re built from steel-reinforced concrete that gets stronger over time, not weaker.
When you want to add a spa later, or change the finish, or install that waterfall you’ve been thinking about, gunite gives you those options. Other pool types lock you into what you bought on day one.
JAS Aquatics has been building custom gunite pools throughout Nassau County for years. We understand Long Island’s soil conditions, water table challenges, and local permit requirements that can trip up contractors from outside the area.
Every gunite pool project starts with evaluating your property’s plot and characteristics. Sloped yards, tight access, existing landscaping—we’ve handled it all in neighborhoods just like yours.
We never take shortcuts or abandon projects midway. When you’re investing this much in your property, you need contractors who finish what we start.
First, we’ll visit your property to discuss design options and assess any site challenges. You’ll see exactly where your pool will go and how it’ll integrate with your existing landscape.
Next comes excavation and steel reinforcement installation. This is where gunite pools get their legendary strength—rebar framework that creates the structural foundation for decades of use.
Then comes the gunite application itself. Concrete and sand mixture is shot at high pressure over the steel framework, creating a solid shell that’s shaped exactly to your specifications. After curing, your pool gets its interior finish, plumbing connections, and final details.
The entire process typically takes 6-8 weeks depending on weather and complexity, but you’ll know the timeline upfront so you can plan accordingly.

Your gunite pool can include features that other pool types simply can’t handle. Infinity edges that seem to disappear into your landscape. Beach entries that let you walk gradually into the water. The spas are integrated with spillover effects.
Because gunite is formed on-site, there are no size restrictions or shape limitations. Kidney-shaped pools that flow around existing trees. Geometric designs that complement modern architecture. Compact plunge pools for smaller yards or massive resort-style installations for entertaining.
The concrete construction also means you can add diving boards, slides, or heavy stone water features without worrying about structural integrity. Your pool becomes exactly what you envisioned, not what was available in a catalog.
