Gunite Pool Construction Services
Gunite Shaped for the Mountainside
In Gatlinburg the mountain decides what is possible, and gunite is what you build when the lot will not accept a pre-made shell. It is formed and shot on-site, so we can step it into a hillside, wrap it around a mountain view, or work the narrow winding access that a one-piece fiberglass shell could never reach. That freedom is exactly what these chalet lots around areas like Chalet Village and Cobbly Nob demand, where extreme slopes and rock rule out anything off the shelf. We engineer the excavation, steel, retaining, and drainage for the ground we actually hit so the pool holds where the ground drops away, and we build for the cabin-rental market so it stays durable and keeps earning between guests. One project manager who knows these roads and these grades stays on the job from layout to first swim. We hold Tennessee contractor license 77919 and carry a 4.9 star rating across 41 Google reviews, backed by 16+ years building across East Tennessee.

Frequently Asked
How much does a gunite pool cost in Gatlinburg?+
Most custom gunite pools in Gatlinburg run $95,000 to $350,000+, depending on size and depth, the shape and features you want, your site access and slope, the retaining a mountain lot needs, the interior finish, and the decking. Because gunite is fully custom, we price it to your design and give you a detailed, no-obligation quote after we see the yard.
How long does it take to build a gunite pool?+
A custom gunite pool typically takes about 8 to 12 weeks, because it is formed, shot, and cured on-site rather than dropped in as a pre-made shell. That extra time buys you unlimited shape and features and the ability to work a steep lot. Permitting happens before the dig, and we lay out the full schedule up front.
Should I choose gunite or fiberglass?+
On a Gatlinburg mountain lot it often comes down to access. Choose gunite when the site is steep, rocky, or hard to reach, or when you want a fully custom shape, a beach entry, or an infinity edge that plays off the view. Fiberglass is faster and lower-maintenance where a crane can actually reach the yard. We build both and will tell you honestly which one fits your lot, your slope, and your budget.
Can you build a gunite pool on a steep or difficult mountain lot?+
Yes, and that is exactly where gunite earns its keep in Gatlinburg. Because it is shaped on-site, we can step it into a hillside, wrap it around a view, or work the narrow winding access that a one-piece fiberglass shell could never reach. We engineer the steel, retaining, and drainage for the grade so the pool holds where the ground drops away.
Do gunite pools hold up in East Tennessee winters?+
Yes. We engineer the shell, decking, retaining, and drainage for our freeze-thaw mountain climate and steep Sevier County ground, and we handle proper winterizing so nothing heaves or cracks over the seasons.
Can I finance a gunite pool in Gatlinburg?+
Yes. We offer pool financing so you can spread the investment out and treat the monthly payment like adding a room to the house, or like an upgrade that lifts what a rental cabin can charge per night. Ask us and we will point you to the current options.
