Do You Build Gunite Pools?

Professional Pool Company — We Specialize in Custom Gunite Pool Construction

Yes — Professional Pool Company builds 100% custom gunite (concrete) pools.

Gunite pools are our specialty, and they are the standard for long-lasting, high-quality pool construction in Central Florida. Every pool we build is structurally engineered, steel-reinforced, and designed to match your property’s layout and your family’s needs.


1. What Is a Gunite Pool?

A gunite pool is a type of concrete pool built by spraying a high-strength cement mixture over a steel rebar structure.

Gunite pools are:

Unlike fiberglass or vinyl, gunite is built on-site, which allows for complete customization.

County/city inspections occur before gunite.

5. Gunite Application

High-pressure sprayed concrete is shaped by our experienced crew.

6. Curing & Structural Stabilization

Gunite cures for proper strength.

7. Tile, Coping & Decking

Surfaces are finished and your deck is installed.

8. Interior Finish

Quartz or pebble is applied depending on your selection.

9. Filling, Startup & Training

Your system is started, balanced, and you are trained on all equipment.


5. Benefits of a Gunite Pool Over Fiberglass

✔ Longer lifespan

Gunite often lasts 50+ years with proper care.

✔ No shell size limitations

Build the exact pool you want.

✔ Stronger structural integrity

Ideal for sloped yards and Florida water tables.

✔ Easier to repair and refinish

Interior finishes can be renewed over time.

✔ More luxurious appearance

Gunite allows for high-end finishes and designs.


6. Do We Build Fiberglass or Vinyl Pools?

No.

We focus exclusively on gunite because it produces the highest-quality, longest-lasting pools for Central Florida homeowners.

Fiberglass and vinyl are prone to:

  • Shell bulging

  • Fading
  • Size limitations
  • Difficult repairs
