FAQs

The construction of a concrete inground pool typically spans about 10 to 12 weeks from the time excavation begins. However, the timeline can vary depending on factors such as weather conditions, project complexity, material selections, and the permitting process. Our team will keep you informed every step of the way so you always know what’s next

Yes, we take care of all required permits for your project, including pool construction, electrical, plumbing, and gas line permits if needed. We coordinate directly with your local municipality to ensure everything is properly approved and compliant before work begins.

Both gunite and shotcrete are high-strength concrete applications used to form the shell of your pool. The main difference lies in how they’re applied:
•Gunite is a dry-mix process where water is added at the nozzle.
•Shotcrete is a wet-mix concrete sprayed through a hose.
 
At Silver Oaks Pools, we typically use Gunite for its consistency, strength, and smoother finish—ideal for the long-term durability of your pool structure.

We reinforce every pool with a steel rebar framework that follows precise engineering specifications. The rebar grid creates a strong skeleton for the gunite shell, helping the pool withstand ground movement and temperature changes. Proper curing and soil preparation are also key steps we take to minimize cracking and ensure structural integrity.

After the shotcrete phase, we allow the shell to cure for about 7 to 10 days before starting the next stages such as tile, coping, and decking. This curing time allows the concrete to reach the necessary strength for a long-lasting structure.

Your pool can be as unique as your lifestyle. We offer a full range of customization options including:

  • Pool shape and size
  • Tile, coping, and interior finishes
  • Decking materials (travertine, pavers, concrete, etc.)
  • Waterline accents and LED lighting
  • Integrated spas, tanning ledges, and swim-up benches

Every design is tailored to blend beautifully with your outdoor space.
