Why Gunite
Truly Custom Built
Gunite is concrete applied with air pressure over a steel framework — which means the pool is formed in place, in your yard, to whatever shape, depth and vision you bring us. Vanishing edges, tanning shelves, deep ends, attached spas, sheer descents: if you can sketch it, gunite can become it.
It’s the most custom pool we build and the one that turns backyards into true resorts. We pair the shell with the tile, coping, decking and water features that finish the picture — one crew, start to finish.
- Completely custom shape, size and depth
- Attached spas, ledges and swim-outs
- Interior finishes: plaster, pebble or fiberglass
- Built-in water features and sheer descents
- Engineered for decades of Oklahoma seasons

Dig To Dive
The Gunite Build Process
Eight steps, one local crew — from the first drawing to the day you swim.
Design
The pool is designed as part of the home and landscape — shape, depths, ledges, spa, materials and equipment all planned before anything breaks ground.
Engineering & Approvals
Structural planning, utility locates and required permits are handled before excavation begins.
The Dig
Precise excavation of the designed shape, with grade and access managed to protect the property.
Steel & Plumbing
The rebar skeleton is tied, and plumbing and electrical runs are placed and pressure-tested.
Gunite Shell
The concrete structure is pneumatically applied, shaped by hand, and cured.
Tile, Coping & Decking
Waterline tile, coping and decking carry the materials of the home to the water’s edge.
Interior Finish
The plaster or aggregate interior is applied, defining the water’s final color.
Fill & Startup
The pool is filled, the equipment is started and balanced, and you’re walked through everything.
Investment
What A Custom Gunite Pool Costs
Every Imperial gunite build is priced to its design. Most projects land in one of four tiers, depending on size, add-ons, features and the elements you request.
Where your project lands depends on size and design, selected features, add-ons and requested elements — tanning ledges, integrated spas, water and fire features, finishes and decking all shape the final number. Your quote includes an exact proposal for your design.

Gunite Questions
Good Questions, Straight Answers
Gunite is built in place, so it takes longer than a fiberglass set — the trade-off for a fully custom pool. Site conditions, weather and your feature list drive the schedule, and we scope it honestly at your consultation.
Plaster, pebble or a fiberglass interior finish — each with its own look, feel and maintenance profile. We walk you through samples during design.
Yes — attached spillover spas, sheer descents, waterfalls and grottos are all built into the same shell and plumbing plan, which is exactly where gunite shines.
