Gunite Pool Construction in Conroe & Magnolia, TX

Gunite is the gold standard for custom in-ground pools — a steel-reinforced, sprayed-concrete shell that can take any shape and last for decades. McNeill Services builds gunite pools across the Houston-north metro, owner-managed from dig to finish.

Why McNeill

Why Build With Gunite

  • Any shape, fully custom — gunite lets us build the exact pool your yard and family want, not a drop-in mold.
  • Steel-reinforced strength — a rebar-and-gunite shell built to handle Texas soil movement and last for decades.
  • One crew, full lifecycle — excavation, steel, gunite, tile, decking, and plaster all coordinated by McNeill.
  • Owner on the job — Josh oversees the critical stages personally so the shell is built right.
How It Works

Our Gunite Construction Process

  1. Layout & excavation

    We stake the design and dig the shell to shape and depth.

  2. Steel & plumbing

    Rebar is tied and plumbing and electrical rough-in is set.

  3. Gunite application

    Concrete is sprayed and shaped to form the structural shell, then cured.

  4. Finish-out

    Tile, coping, decking, and plaster complete the pool.

Common Questions

Gunite Pool FAQ

What's the difference between gunite and fiberglass pools?
Gunite is a custom-built concrete shell — any shape or size — while fiberglass is a pre-molded shell. Gunite is more durable and fully customizable.
How long does a gunite pool take to build?
Most gunite builds run roughly 8–12 weeks depending on size, design, weather, and approvals.
Does the gunite need to cure before plaster?
Yes. The shell cures for a period after spraying before tile, decking, and plaster go in.
Do you build the deck and patio too?
Yes. We handle the pool, concrete decking, and covered patio as one cohesive project.
