Concrete Pool Construction in Central Florida
Poured-in-place concrete pools are engineered for structural precision and built to handle the most demanding site conditions. Pools-Now constructs concrete pools for residential and commercial projects where standard construction methods fall short.
When to Choose Concrete
- Hillside or Elevated Sites – Structural engineering for grade changes, retaining walls, and cantilevered designs.
- Load-Bearing Requirements – Rooftop pools, elevated decks, and structures requiring engineered load calculations.
- Competition and Athletic Pools – Precise dimensions, depth tolerances, and finish requirements for sanctioned facilities.
- Unique Structural Challenges – High water tables, unstable soils, or proximity to existing structures.
Construction Process
- Engineering and Design – Structural plans stamped by a licensed Florida PE.
- Excavation and Forming – Precision excavation with engineered steel rebar and formwork.
- Concrete Pour – Poured-in-place concrete to engineered specifications with proper curing.
- Waterproofing – Applied membrane or crystalline waterproofing system.
- Finish Application – Plaster, pebble, tile, or specialty coating to complete the interior surface.
- Equipment and Plumbing – Commercial or residential-grade filtration, heating, and automation.
- Deck and Hardscape – Poured concrete, pavers, or natural stone deck construction.
Finish Options
- White or colored plaster
- Pebble aggregate (PebbleTec, PebbleSheen)
- Glass bead finishes
- Full-tile interiors
- Specialty coatings and hybrid finishes
Concrete vs. Gunite
While gunite (dry-mix shotcrete) is sprayed onto rebar and shaped on-site, poured-in-place concrete uses forms for more precise structural control. Both deliver excellent long-term durability. We recommend concrete for projects requiring tight engineering tolerances or unusual structural requirements.
