Gunite & Concrete Pool Construction

Gunite pools are the material of choice for discerning homeowners who demand permanence and creative freedom. Unlike vinyl or fiberglass, gunite allows us to sculpt any shape, depth, or contour imaginable — and and it stands up to Pennsylvania's freeze-thaw climate for decades when engineered for our soil. (Prefer the fastest install and lowest maintenance? We also install fiberglass — see our fiberglass pools.)

How a gunite pool is built. We set a steel rebar cage to the exact shape of your design, then pneumatically apply gunite — a dry-mix concrete — over it to form a dense, monolithic, reinforced shell. After curing, we tile the waterline, set coping, apply your interior finish, and integrate equipment. The result is a permanent structure, not a liner that needs replacing every decade.

Why it matters on the Main Line. The area's architectural diversity — from Colonial Revival to contemporary — calls for pools that complement each home. Gunite's sculptural freedom lets us design geometric pools for modern homes, freeform naturalistic pools for wooded lots, and vanishing-edge installations that turn a grade change into a dramatic feature.

Specialists, not generalists. Our gunite crews have built everything from clean lap pools to resort-style vanishing edges with integrated spas, in premium finishes like Pebble Tec, quartz, and Diamond Brite with glass-tile accents. Hayward automation is standard on every build.
