What is a Gunite Pool?
Gunite pools are renowned for their durability and versatility. Constructed using a mixture of cement, sand, and water that’s sprayed over a reinforced steel framework, gunite allows for virtually limitless design possibilities. This method enables us to create pools of any shape, size, or depth, making it the ideal choice for a truly custom swimming experience.
