In-Ground Gunite Pool Installation

Excavation
Your pool layout will be marked in your backyard and you and your dealer will begin gathering all of the necessary permits. Make sure that any tress and areas that you want to protect are clearly marked and out of the way. Heavy equipment will be brought in to dig the hole. Make sure that your dealer has properly checked for underground utilities before construction begins.

Framing
Your installer will set and secure the substructure of the pool to keep it in place. The bottom of the pool is then shaped and smoothed. At this point, it is beginning to look like a pool. At this time the builder will also frame the surrounding deck and walkway areas.

Finishing
Depending on the type of pool you have chosen, it is now time to install the interior finish. Gunite pools are finished with pneumatically applied concrete. Vinyl pools will have a liner installed. Fiberglass pools will have a one-piece shell installed. Once this is complete, the pool will be filled with water and the builder will complete the deck, coping and walkway areas.

Accessories
Accent pieces, hardware and water filtration systems are now ready for installation. Now is the perfect time to install the appropriate safety signage.

The final touch…and voila! The paradise of your dreams is a backyard reality – step right in!
