Shotcrete Pools: The Strongest & Most Customizable Pools in Georgia
When it comes to durability, flexibility, and custom designs, shotcrete pools are the gold standard. At Pools Georgia, we specialize in high-quality shotcrete pool construction for homeowners in Fayette, Coweta, Spalding, and Henry Counties. Whether you want a classic rectangular pool, a freeform lagoon-style pool, or an infinity edge masterpiece, shotcrete allows for endless design possibilities.
What is a Shotcrete Pool?
Shotcrete is a high-strength concrete mixture that is sprayed onto a reinforced steel framework to create a solid pool shell. Unlike traditional concrete that is poured into wooden forms, shotcrete is sprayed under high pressure, allowing for seamless curves, unique shapes, and exceptional durability.
Benefits of Shotcrete Pools
- Long-Lasting Durability – Shotcrete pools last 50+ years with proper maintenance.
- Highly Customizable – Design any shape, size, or depth to fit your backyard.
- Stronger Than Traditional Concrete – Dense, high-strength structure with minimal risk of cracking.
- Smooth & Seamless Finish – Eliminates joints and weak points in the pool shell.
- Luxury Finishes Available – Compatible with tile, pebble, quartz, and polished plaster.
Why Choose a Shotcrete Pool?
Many luxury pool owners and resorts prefer shotcrete pools because of their durability and custom design capabilities. Unlike fiberglass or vinyl pools, shotcrete pools do not require liners, do not fade over time, and can be fully customized with tanning ledges, beach entries, spas, and waterfalls.

Shotcrete vs. Gunite: What’s the Difference?
Many people confuse shotcrete and gunite, but the difference comes down to the mixing process:
- Shotcrete: Pre-mixed concrete that is applied with high-pressure spraying. More consistent and requires less labor.
- Gunite: A dry mix that is combined with water at the nozzle during application. Requires skilled labor for consistent strength.
Both methods are stronger than traditional concrete, but shotcrete offers more uniform strength and a faster installation process.
