Custom Gunite Pools

Custom Gunite Pools in Katy

A gunite pool is the most flexible way to build, because the shell is sprayed as pneumatically applied concrete over a steel rebar cage rather than dropped in as a preformed shape. That means any depth, any outline, a tanning ledge, a vanishing edge, or an attached spillover spa is on the table. Baddogtavern builds custom gunite pools from layout and excavation through steel, plumbing, shell, tile and coping, deck, and the interior finish you choose.

Why Homeowners Choose Gunite

• Total design freedom. The shape is not limited by a factory mold, so a narrow Cinco Ranch lot and a wide Firethorne yard each get a pool built to fit.
• Built to last. A properly cured gunite shell with a quartz or pebble interior finish holds up for decades, and a pebble finish commonly lasts 15 to 25 years.
• Engineered for Katy clay. We size the steel, drainage, and deck for the expansive gumbo soil around Mason Road so the shell and coping stay tight through the seasons.

Our Process

We stake the layout in your backyard, excavate to plan, tie the rebar cage, and set the plumbing before the crew shoots the gunite shell. After it cures we set waterline tile and coping, pour the deck with the NEC 680.26 bonding grid, apply your interior finish, and run startup. A typical custom build near the 77494 area runs eight to twelve weeks depending on weather and the Harris County inspection schedule.
