About Concrete Pools
Gunite Pools also known as Shotcrete Pools are forms of Concrete Pools. Gunite pools are made from dry concrete being mixed with water in a hose. Shotcrete is made from already wet and mixed concrete.
Once the Gunite or Shotcrete is sprayed onto the pool layout it needs time to harden in order to reach its full strength and durability. This process is called curing and takes about a month.
You can change the strength of your concrete pool depending on how many sacks of cement you add to the mix. More cement = stronger concrete.
Concrete Pools provide lots of advantages as they have nearly limitless customization options to fit any backyard, size, and design. They last a long time, and they look really nice. You can expect a well-done, properly maintained concrete pool to last 40 or more years.
