Gunite pool and travertine patio East Islip NY

Gunite pool and travertine patio East Islip NY  We completed this project about 4years ago. We installed a new gunite pool 16×36 with a bluestone coping, auto cover and a fiorito travertine patio. The pool has a sundeck.  We have lined the steps edges with glass tiles. You can see they reflect light from one side. The pool is a sports pool. The deep end of the pool is the center. This side we have corner stairs. There is a bar area with stools inside the pool. In the lower patio area, chairs can be used as stools on the outside.  This is a sunken fire pit area with a bench and gas fire pit. On this we have a semi raised patio. The property slopes so the pool was built a step down from the original house patio. This is a gas fire pit used more as an accent and this is also a sitting area. The property sits on a beautiful lake. The house is about 100 years old.  We faced the walls of the pool to match the original bricks of the house to make it look like it’s been here as long as the house has been here.

 Gunite swimming  pool company | Hicksville Nassau County NY

 Gunite swimming  pool company | Hicksville Nassau County NY Gunite swimming pool company serving Hicksville in Nassau County NY. Gappsi provides all types of pool services and construction, including designing, construction, and maintenance. For this residential installation, an 18×36 gunite swimming pool was built with stadium stairs in the shallow area and a bench in the deep end. The installation began with the excavation of the swimming pool, installing gravel in the bottom of the pool, and the steel within the pool with 1-½ rebars. The swimming pool depth is 3 to 6 feet.  as a experienced  Gunite swimming  pool company we make professional suggestions and great advices to our clients
This particular swimming pool interior was finished with Diamond Brite midnight blue plaster, the darkest of the Diamond Brite pool finishes. Porcelain tile border was installed for the waterline under the pool coping and into the skimmers, also 3×3 inch tile marks were installed to define the steps and bench edges. In this particular installation we provided a safety auto-cover that opens with the turn of a key. This allows the homeowner to enjoy the pool longer in the season from early May to late October. This also saves money on energy consumption by keeping the pool covered when it’s not being used. The auto cover prevents the heat from escaping, this saves a lot on gas or electric and keeps the pool heater and pump to run for a minimum period of time. LED lights, an automation control panel, a Cartridge filter, a salt chlorine generator, and an ozone system were also installed. Cambridge pavers are installed around the swimming pool for the patio and bluestone was used for the pool coping and the auto-cover box.

The family in this East Islip home wanted a pool for entertaining that was built to last. Giuseppe Abbrancati, owner/designer of Smithtown-based Gappsi, Inc. suggested a gunite saltwater pool in a Sports Pool style design where both sides of the pool are shallow and the deep end is in the middle. “Gunite pools make a statement. They are a very customizable pool. That is why you see a sundeck, round steps, and LED lights inside the pool. You can shape the cement any way you want it and apply any finish. They are also highly durable,” says Abbrancati who has been building pools for the last thirty years. “The deepest part of this pool is six feet. It’s built like that so you can play volleyball in the pool and its fair ground,” he adds. Abbrancati designed a classic rectangular-shaped pool that is 16 by 32 foot in size and has that sleek modern look. “Everyone in the Hamptons has the gunite rectangular shape. It is the most elegant,” he says. The pool, he explains, is a cobalt blue diamond bright with quartz finish. Before the installation, the house – that is close to a hundred years old- had a simple concrete patio. in order to keep the character of the home, Abbrancati chose a brick looking veneer that would blend in with the existing bricks to make it look like the pool was always there. “I didn’t want the pool to look like it was an addition. I wanted it to look like it was built with the house 100 years ago,” he says. Travertine pavers were added throughout. Additional features of the property that Abbrancati built was a sunken down natural fire pit made from rocks and lava and an L-shaped bench for seating.
One of the corners of the pool features a blue stone counter three feet wide that is designed to enjoy snacks and beverages poolside.
Seating inside the pool with stools built inside the pool made from veneer with glass tiles is an ideal spot for socializing.
A twelve-foot long natural gas fire pit runs alongside the pool so you can roast marshmallows and eat smores right from the pool. The fire accent is also a beautiful decorative feature that adds ambiance.
A sundeck is accessible on the shallow end of the pool and an ideal place to place a lounge chair.
To keep the pool pristine an ‘auto-cover’ was installed. With a push of a button – located next to the sliding door- the auto-cover opens and closes.
The pool has a gas heater and the temperature can go as high as 104 degrees. The average setting is between 80 to 85. The heater goes on automatically and the technology enables the homeowner to set the temperature that is comfortable for them.
