Gunite Pool Design + Installation

Create your dream backyard with a custom Gunite pool from Nelson Land. Durable, flexible, and built to last, we handle every
step—from design to final touches—delivering expert craftsmanship and a personalized outdoor retreat.

Design + Installation: What to Expect

Step 1: On-Site Consultation + Design Planning

We start with a comprehensive consultation to understand your vision, budget, and site conditions. We’ll discuss pool shape, depth, features, surrounding hardscapes, and landscaping. Our designers create a custom 2D or 3D layout to bring your dream pool to life.

Step 2: Permitting + Site Preparation

Our team handles all necessary permits and inspections, ensuring full compliance with local codes. We then excavate the site and prepare it for structural steel installation.

Step 3: Structural Framework + Gunite Application

We build a steel rebar framework for strength and shape. Then, gunite is sprayed and sculpted to form the pool shell. This is a key step that ensures structural integrity for decades to come.

Step 5: Interior Finishing & Pool Decking

Choose from a variety of premium finishes—tile, plaster, pebble, or quartz. We also install coping, decking, and surrounding hardscape to complete the look and functionality of your pool area.

Step 4: Plumbing, Electrical + Equipment Install

We install all plumbing lines, filtration systems, electrical components, and smart pool automation features. Our systems are energy-efficient, easy to use, and built to last.

Step 6: Final Inspection & Pool Start-Up

We complete a thorough inspection, clean the pool, fill it, and walk you through the system controls. We’ll provide care tips and offer ongoing maintenance support if needed.

Hurricane Melissa Relief Effort

On October 28, 2025, Hurricane Melissa made landfall in Jamaica with 185 mph winds — the strongest storm in the island’s history. While our Jamaican employees were safe here in Missouri, their families endured devastating loss to homes, crops, and livelihoods. These team members have been with us for nearly 20 years — they are family. In January, Stephanie and I will be traveling to Jamaica to deliver essential supplies and support rebuilding efforts firsthand. We’ve established a Hurricane Melissa Relief Fund, beginning with our personal donation of $25,000.

If you feel called to help, we would be incredibly grateful.

To contribute, please contact:

Lake Office: 573-392-9993 OR St. Louis Office: 363-244-5651

You may also reach out to Stephanie and I (Scott) directly with any questions.

Thank you for your compassion and generosity.
