Let us help you modify your in ground pool and backyard with the right kind of lighting to fit your needs. Gappsi installed the lighting features surrounding all-natural stone patio and walls in this photo. The pool has Led Lights which are energy efficient giving off a nice clear yet soft glow and is available in an alternating multicolor effect or a single color (which you see in the photo). Wall washer lights reflect off the textured stone giving the illusion of running water down the Travertine veneer walls. Spot lights are installed under the trees behind the sheer descending water feature beside the pool. These spot lights are installed in the ground directed up at the trees bringing out their defined shape illuminating them at night. Floodlighting features are installed on the outside walls of the house to enhance the main sitting area where the tables and food islands are set up. The barbeque pavilion is also lit up by installing high hats in the ceiling and soffits. The high hats are a recessed lighting feature giving the chef and your guest the perfect ambiance for entertaining. Outdoor lighting is used for multiple reasons both decorative and functional. Different types of outdoor lighting and fixtures are used for specific uses for example brightening a pathway with lights gleaming down, illuminating a tree with light fixtures cascading upward, and accenting column pillars or water features. Outdoor lighting truly adds to the landscaping and event atmosphere at night. In this specific picture you’ll see by installing some unique customized outdoor lighting will get an elegant transformation after sunset.

Excavation of this Gunite swimming pool in Roslyn, NY is started by marking up and laying out the pool according to town setbacks. We proceed with framing and establishing the pool shell’s rough height. Then the excavator will dig and shape the hole, preparing it for rebar installation. After the # 4 rebar is installed, creating a cage that outlines what will be the final shape of the Gunite swimming pool. The Gunite cement shell is installed by applying a mix of sand and Portland cement through a pump system which is pushed through a nozzle with the force of compressed air. As the cement comes out from the nozzle, water is sprayed simultaneously to create a bond between the sand and cement, forming the Gunite pool shell. In this particular pool, we also molded an autocover box on the deep end of the pool, and swim out bench with the same Gunite cement process. On the shallow end of the pool steps were also shaped in Gunite expanding across the width of the pool. At this stage the Gunite pool shell will be left to cure for 28 days, and water will be sprayed on the concrete shell daily to help the shell petrify. Stub plumbing is installed through the Gunite walls for future connection of plumbing pipes. The skimmers are also placed in the pool before Gunite is sprayed, which encases them in concrete. Plumbing for the bottom drains, and pressure relief valve are placed in the floor, in case in the future the pool needs to be emptied and ground hydraulic pressure is under the pool due to high water tables. On top of the pool shell, along the length of the pool a groove is left in the shell for future installation of the Auto Cover track. The pool shell was constructed 10″ wide for the wall and 8″ wide for the deep end bowl and shallow area floor.
This pool house and patio of a private residence located on Long Island, features the design and construction, from concept to completion, by Gappsi Group. The quaint pool house is outlined with planting beds holding short voluminous green shrubs, with sweet and understated pink flowers adding a splash of color. The large gunite pool was custom designed and strategically plotted at the ideal location within the property survey. The pool’s amorphous shape is reminiscent of a natural lagoon, creating a tranquil environment. The custom-built natural stone spa, with an accompanying Scogli Di Mare Limestone step only adds to the serenity. The patio surrounding the pool and spa is made up of an array of mocha french pattern travertine, and lined with matching coping. The finishing touch on this backyard design, as well as an added entertainment factor, is the custom-built outdoor fire pit.
