Since 1988
Precision-built serenity, from consultation onward.
Shinnecock Pools has worked the same ten East End communities since 1988. In that time the houses have changed hands, the architects have changed names, and the pools we poured in our first decade are still being opened every May by the same company that built them.
That continuity is the whole offer. We build in gunite because it lasts, we renovate rather than replace when the shell deserves it, and we maintain what we build, so the person responsible for the property has one number to call and one crew that already knows where the valves are.
Most of our work arrives through an estate manager, a property manager, or an architect. We are comfortable in that role: discreet on site, precise in writing, and finished before the season opens.

What We Do
Three disciplines, one crew.
Built, restored, and looked after by the same people, with no handoffs between crews.
02
Pool Restoration
Re-plaster, re-tile, new coping, corrected hydraulics. We assess the shell first and tell you honestly whether it deserves restoring or replacing.

New Construction
Custom gunite pools and spas engineered for the site, accounting for grades, water table, and sightlines from the house. Drawn with your architect, permitted, and built once.

View the Full PortfolioHow It Works
Five steps, and very few surprises.
The same sequence whether we are pouring a new pool or restoring one from 1994, documented at each stage so whoever manages the property is never guessing.
New construction is currently booking approximately six weeks out. Renovation and service schedules are set season by season.
Begin Your Shinnecock Experience-
Conversation
A walk of the property with you or your representative. Grades, access, sightlines, and how the household actually uses the season.
-
Design & Drawings
Layout, depths, finishes, and equipment resolved on paper and coordinated with your architect or landscape architect before anything is committed.
-
Permitting
We file and carry the village and town approvals. East End permitting commonly runs about eight weeks, and we schedule around it rather than against it.
-
Construction
Excavation, steel, gunite, tile, coping, and finish, sequenced by our own crews. One site contact, written updates, a clean site each evening.
-
Stewardship
Startup, then weekly service by the crew that built it. Openings, closings, and equipment care handled for as long as you own the property.
Pool Service & Maintenance
Maintained with the same precision it was built with.
Explore Pool ServiceOn-Site Assessment
We walk the equipment pad, test the water using reagent-based testing rather than test strips, and review the shell and surfaces in person before recommending anything, so the plan reflects the pool’s actual condition and how the property is used.
Tailored Maintenance & Service Plan
Weekly visits, chemistry logs, and equipment checks are scoped to the property itself: more frequent through peak season, lighter in the shoulder months, and adjusted as the pool ages.
Ongoing Service
The same crew returns season after season, catching small issues early and reporting them to you before they become repairs.
Financing
Structure it however suits the property.
Some owners write one check. Others prefer to spread a pool, a spa, and the hardscape around it across a term. We work with an independent lending partner that specializes in pool and outdoor-living projects, so the option is simply there when it is useful.
- Reviewed privately, with no obligation and no effect on the project scope
- Covers new construction, renovation, and equipment upgrades
- Handled directly with the lender — we never see your financial detail
Financing is provided by an independent third-party lender. Terms, approval, and rates are determined solely by the lender.
In Their Words
What the East End says.
Serving The East End Since 1988.
Where We Build
Southampton, and the ten communities around it.
We stay inside a radius we can actually service well, and every property is within an easy drive of the yard, which is the whole point.
Common Questions
Answered plainly.
The questions estate managers and architects ask us most often. If yours is not here, it is a short conversation.
All QuestionsDo you work directly with property managers, architects, and estate representatives?
Yes. A majority of our work is coordinated through a homeowner’s representative: an estate manager, property manager, architect, or landscape architect. We are accustomed to reporting into that structure: a single point of contact, written updates, and site access coordinated around the household’s calendar.
How long does a new gunite pool take to build on the East End?
Plan on a full season from first drawing to first swim. Permitting on the East End commonly runs about eight weeks on its own, and current construction starts are booking roughly six weeks out.
We sequence excavation, steel, gunite, tile, coping, and finish so the noisy work lands outside the months the property is most in use.
What does weekly pool service include?
Water chemistry balanced and logged, surfaces and waterline cleaned, baskets and filters serviced, equipment and automation checked, and any issue reported to you before it becomes a repair.
Seasonal openings and closings, cover handling, and winterization are handled by the same team that already knows the pool.
Can an existing pool be renovated rather than replaced?
In most cases, yes. A sound gunite shell can be re-plastered, re-tiled, re-coped, and re-plumbed, and the equipment pad brought current with modern variable-speed and automation hardware.
We assess the shell, the hydraulics, and the surrounding hardscape first, then tell you plainly whether renovation or replacement is the better long-term decision.
Which towns does Shinnecock Pools serve?
Southampton, East Hampton, Bridgehampton, Water Mill, Sagaponack, Wainscott, Quogue, Hampton Bays, and Montauk, along with the surrounding East End and North Fork.
Is financing available for a new pool or renovation?
Yes. We work with an independent lending partner that specializes in pool and outdoor-living projects, with terms reviewed privately and no obligation. Financing is offered as a convenience alongside the project, never as the reason to begin one.
