The best type of concrete for in-ground pools is known as shotcrete. Shotcrete is actually the name of the method where concrete is projected at high velocity onto the vertical surfaces of a swimming pool form. Upon impact, the concrete is instantly solidified to provide a build quality like no other. And with less formwork required, it adds multiple efficiencies to your project—stackable benefits you can count on. No other method even comes close to allowing the same level of customization and connection that shotcrete has to offer. Plus, shotcrete delivers a more stable base layer, so your project stands the test of time.
