Custom gunite pool construction typically starts around $40,000 and can range up to $100,000 or more depending on size, shape, and features like tile, lighting, and water features. Because every pool is custom-built to your yard and vision, we provide a detailed quote after your free consultation.
Gunite pool construction is built on-site and generally takes several weeks to a few months from groundbreaking to final walkthrough, depending on the scope of your project, permitting, and weather. We keep you informed at every phase, from excavation through plaster curing.
No — Pinnacle Exterior Construction specializes exclusively in custom gunite inground pools. Gunite offers greater durability, design flexibility, and long-term value compared to vinyl liner or prefabricated above-ground options, which is why it’s the only pool construction method we build.
Gunite pools are built by spraying a mixture of cement, sand, and water to form a durable concrete shell, custom-shaped to your exact specifications. Unlike fiberglass, which comes in pre-formed shapes and sizes, gunite construction allows for fully custom shapes, depths, and features — built to last for decades with proper care.
We build custom pools throughout South Louisiana, including Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Lafayette, Prairieville, Gonzales, and Denham Springs.

We also dig our own pools in-house rather than using subcontractors, which lets us control grading and quality throughout.
Absolutely. Every pool we build is customized to your property and preferences, including pool shape and size, plaster color, tile, coping, and add-ons like LED lighting, deck jets, and cool decking.
