Shreveport Shotcrete/Gunite Pools
Custom concrete pools with unlimited shapes and features, engineered for Caddo Parish clay soil and built by one in-house team — from Cross Lake to Ellerbe Road.
Shreveport Shotcrete/Gunite Pools
Shotcrete — pneumatically sprayed concrete around a steel rebar cage — is the gold standard for custom pools, and it's especially well-suited to Shreveport's expansive clay soil. Unlike pre-fab fiberglass or vinyl, a shotcrete shell is a single-piece concrete structure engineered as a monolithic unit, which gives it the structural integrity to resist the ground movement that Caddo Parish clay dishes out each wet and dry season. Curves, beach entries, tanning ledges, vanishing edges — if you can dream it, we can form it in shotcrete.
Every shotcrete pool we build in Shreveport starts with a soil assessment of your specific lot — whether you're in the clay-heavy ground of Broadmoor, the established lots of South Highlands and Fairfield, or the newer developments along Ellerbe Road. The steel rebar layout is then engineered for that soil, the shell is sprayed to a density and thickness that exceeds Louisiana Department of Health pool code, and the entire build is permitted and inspected through Caddo Parish and the City of Shreveport under our residential pool license (#00138) and commercial classification (#74493).
From a Cross Lake waterfront property with a vanishing edge to a family backyard in Kingston with a beach entry and tanning ledge, we've been building shotcrete pools across Shreveport for over fifteen years. Your 25-minute complimentary virtual design consultation includes a 3D photorealistic render and a phased design plan PDF so you can see the pool — and the outdoor kitchen, fire pit, or pergola that completes the resort — before we break ground.

Shotcrete pools in Shreveport start at $68,900. Most custom builds range $90,000–$130,000 depending on size, shape, finishes, and features. Large pools with spas, water features, and high-end finishes can exceed $150,000. Financing available with 0% APR for 24 months.
Why Blue Tide
Every project is backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty and 24 years of combined construction experience.
A shotcrete shell is a single-piece monolithic concrete structure — the strongest pool type for Caddo Parish's expansive clay. The rebar cage is engineered for your specific lot's soil movement.
Free-form curves, beach entries, tanning ledges, vanishing edges, infinity edges, and custom depths. Shotcrete conforms to any design — no mold or liner limitations.
A properly built shotcrete shell lasts 50+ years. The concrete is pneumatically applied at high velocity for maximum density and strength, far exceeding Louisiana pool code.
We don't sub out the pool. Our team handles excavation, steel, plumbing, shotcrete, tile, coping, plaster, and decking — one team, one warranty, one phone call.
See your Shreveport shotcrete pool in a photorealistic 3D render before construction. Adjust the shape, depth, finish, and features digitally — no costly mid-build changes.
We pull all permits through Caddo Parish and the City of Shreveport and schedule every Louisiana Department of Health pool inspection. You never visit the permit office.

“They replaced our patio cover which we lost in the big ice storm. It took us a year and a half to find someone to fix it. It was Blue Tide Exteriors. It took them 2 days and it is so pretty. They worked with our budget. They did a great job.”
“Blue tide did an amazing job on my front deck! Great customer service — they went the extra mile to make sure my deck was perfect.”
“So appreciative of Jordan and his team. Super efficient and very reasonable for the work required.”
