  • 10-12” thick gunite walls

    Most builders shoot 6-8” thick gunite; we exceed industry standards by shooting 10” thick structural walls in pools and 12” thick in spas, then honoring a full 28-day cure time to reach 4000+ psi compression strength – built to last, not rushed to finish.

  • Nationally Certified Builder

    We don’t build pools the way our granddaddy showed us – we build them to national standards set by Genesis and the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance, the gold standard in pool construction excellence. We’re continuously learning from the best pool designers and civil engineers in the world, because we’re never done improving our craft.

  • How long does the pool construction process take?

    On average, a custom gunite pool takes about 7-12 weeks from excavation to final clean-up. We don’t rush cure times or cut corners, so while it may take longer than a mass production builder, its built to last.

  • Why should I choose a concrete pool instead of fiberglass or vinyl?

    Concrete (Gunite) pools are fully custom – built to fit your space, your vision, and your features, with no size or shape limitations. Unlike fiberglass or vinyl, they’re structurally stronger, more durable, and easier to repair or remodel over time. If you’re investing in a long-term backyard upgrade and want a pool that will last a lifetime, concrete is the only option that truly holds its value.

  • What’s included in a custom pool build?


    At a minimum, your build includes excavation, steel, plumbing, gunite, tile, coping, plaster, equipment, installation, and start-up. We also include to-scale 3D renderings so you can see the design before we start. Want more? We can go as custom as you’d like – fully glass tile mosaic pools, fire accents, water features, covered patios, landscaping, artificial turf and pavers, hardscapes, outdoor kitchens, and more.

  • Do you offer financing?

    Yes – we work with Lyon Financial, the nation’s leader in swimming pool financing for over 40 years. They offer flexible terms, no prepayment penalties, and loans designed specifically for outdoor living projects. If you’re ready to build but want to spread out the investment, Lyon makes it easy and stress-free.

  • Can I customize the shape and features of the pool?

    Absolutely. Every pool we build is fully customizable – you choose the shape, depth, entry steps, tanning ledges, lighting, water features, and more. Not sure what you want? We have a library of design concepts to browse, ready for you to make your own.

  • Why should I choose a builder that’s nationally certified?

    Most builders rely on “the way it’s always been done.” We follow the latest national construction standards set by Genesis and the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance – and we’re continually learning from the top engineers and designers around the world.

  • How much does a custom pool cost?

    It depends on the size, layout, access, finish materials, and extra features. Most of our builds fall between $60k – $120k, but we’ll work closely with you to design a pool that fits your space and your budget without cutting corners.
