Custom Gunite Pools

Gunite pools designed around your property, your family and the way you want to use the backyard.

The work

Gunite pools designed around your property, your family and the way you want to use the backyard.

Every Skinner pool is drawn for the specific yard it goes into — the shape of the lot, where the sun falls, the sightlines from the house and how much deck you want around the water. Construction is gunite: a steel-reinforced shell sprayed in place, which is what lets a pool take a genuinely custom shape with features like a sun ledge, a raised wall or an integrated spa built into the same structure. We finish the tile, coping and surrounding deck as part of the same build, so the pool and the space around it are designed together rather than handed to a second contractor afterwards.

Questions

About custom gunite pools

What is a gunite pool?
Gunite is a concrete mix sprayed over a steel-reinforced frame that is shaped on site. Because the shell is formed in place rather than dropped in as a pre-made unit, the pool can be built to whatever shape and depth the design calls for, with ledges, benches and raised walls formed as part of the same structure.
Can you work around an existing patio or landscaping?
Yes. We walk the property before anything is designed so the layout accounts for what is already there, where equipment and access need to go, and what you want to keep.
