Lake Aluma is an exclusive private-lake community northeast of Oklahoma City, with larger estate lots and homes to match.

Swim Tech Pools & Spas is licensed and bonded, and every project is overseen directly by owner Max Pester and his project managers, from the first design through the final fill. We build true gunite pools , sprayed concrete over steel , because the method is strong and flexible enough to handle Oklahoma’s shifting clay, and it lets us shape almost any design. Roughly 95% of our work in and around Lake Aluma comes from referrals, which only happens when the details are right: clean tile lines, solid decking, and equipment set up to run for years.

Around Lake Aluma, recent work has leaned toward architectural and resort-style pools with travertine decking, integrated spas, and outdoor living features designed for entertaining.
What ties our work together is craftsmanship you can see up close and backyards that get used hard through Oklahoma’s long season. We build with materials chosen to take the heat and the clay , true gunite shells, quality decking, and equipment meant to run for years , because in Lake Aluma, a pool is a long-term investment in the home, not a quick add-on.
Most custom gunite builds run about 8 to 12 weeks of active work once permits are approved, depending on design and decking. Oklahoma’s long season lets us build much of the year, and we’re known for finishing on or ahead of schedule. We give you a realistic Lake Aluma timeline at the design stage.

Oklahoma’s red clay soil shifts as moisture changes through the year, which can crack a weaker pool. We build true gunite shells , sprayed concrete over steel , because they are strong and flexible enough to handle that movement, and they let us shape almost any design you want for your Lake Aluma backyard.
Size, shape, finish, decking, and features like a spa, fire elements, or an outdoor kitchen all move the price, along with site conditions in your Lake Aluma yard. We give a clear, itemized quote after walking the property, and offer pre-approved financing if it helps.
We build through much of the year in Oklahoma, but starting design and permits in the off-season , fall or winter , often means your pool is ready for the start of summer in Lake Aluma. Booking early gives you the most flexibility on scheduling.
