Corpus Christi Pool Pros provides professional gunite & shotcrete pool construction in Corpus Christi, TX for residential and commercial properties across the Coastal Bend. Gunite pool construction in Corpus Christi gives you a steel-reinforced concrete shell that can take any shape your lot allows and shrug off Gulf Coast salt air for decades. We handle the whole build in house: 3D design, permits, excavation, rebar, shotcrete, tile, coping, decking, equipment, and plaster startup. The sequence matters more than most homeowners realize, so here is what actually happens. We lay out the pool on the ground with paint and stakes so you can walk it before a machine touches the yard, then excavate to the design profile. Next comes the rebar cage, typically #3 or #4 bar tied on roughly 12-inch centers with the steel schedule stepped up on deeper ends and raised bond beams. Plumbing and electrical rough-in follow, then the shell gets pneumatically applied as dry-mix gunite or wet-mix shotcrete depending on the crew, the day, and the access. After the shot, the shell cures for something close to 28 days before finish work starts, and no amount of good weather makes that faster. Coastal Bend geology is the part that separates a real quote from an optimistic one. Sandy soil and a shallow water table across Flour Bluff, Padre Island, and much of the bayfront often mean well-point dewatering during excavation and a heavier steel schedule than an inland Calallen lot needs. We look at your specific site and neighboring construction before we price it, because discovering a water table halfway through a dig is how change orders are born. Typical inground gunite builds in Corpus Christi run from the mid-$40,000s into the mid-$70,000s. The shell is rarely what moves that number. Decking square footage, coping material, interior finish grade, and features like a raised spa, a tanning ledge with bubblers, or sheer descents are what separate a $48,000 pool from a $72,000 one, which is why we itemise them as separate lines rather than burying them in a single figure. Everything gets built with licensed electrical and plumbing trades, correct equipotential bonding around the shell, marine-grade stainless hardware on anything within reach of bay air, VGB-compliant main drain covers, and a written workmanship warranty on the shell and plumbing. If your yard is genuinely wrong for a gunite pool, whether that is access, setbacks, or budget, we will tell you during the design visit rather than after the deposit.
With 15+ years of experience, our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — gunite and shotcrete shells, fiberglass pool shells, pebble, mini-pebble and quartz interior finishes, glass and porcelain waterline tile, travertine and shell-stone coping, saltwater chlorination at roughly 3,200 ppm — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Corpus Christi and nearby communities including Portland, Robstown, Aransas Pass, Ingleside.

Materials, equipment and how we do gunite & shotcrete pool construction
The difference between gunite & shotcrete pool construction that lasts and gunite & shotcrete pool construction that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with gunite and shotcrete shells, fiberglass pool shells, pebble, mini-pebble and quartz interior finishes, glass and porcelain waterline tile, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Corpus Christi job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of pool work in the Coastal Bend means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
