Phoenix Custom Pool Builder, Owner-Run Since 1987
Why Phoenix Homeowners Trust Doug and Terry With Their Custom Pools
The Pentair Sta-Rite Difference
We fit Pentair Sta-Rite pumps, filters and heaters on every new pool and spa we build, and we have done so for over twenty years.
Here is the part most builders will not tell you: the brand matters less than the consistency. Any of the major manufacturers will build you a decent pump. What you actually want is a builder who fits the same line every time, because that is what makes the pool cheap to own five years from now.
Reliability in Extreme Heat
An equipment pad in Phoenix sits in direct sun through a 115-degree afternoon. Equipment does not fail in the showroom, it fails on the pad in July, and that is the only condition worth specifying for.
Serviceable for the Long Haul
Because we fit one line, our techs carry the parts and know the units. A mixed pad is somebody else's problem to diagnose, and you pay for the diagnosis.
What It Costs to Run
A variable-speed pump uses a fraction of the energy of a single-speed unit because it spends most of its life running slowly rather than cycling hard. That shows up on the power bill every month. We are not going to promise you a utility rebate, because those programs change and several Arizona pool-pump rebates have been withdrawn. Ask us what the pump actually draws and we will tell you.

What Building A Pool In Phoenix Involves
Most of what makes a Phoenix pool hard has nothing to do with the pool.
The Ground Fights You
Caliche runs through a lot of the Valley, and it is hard enough that hitting a seam can change the excavation plan on day one. We would rather find it during the site assessment than during the dig, which is why we walk the yard before we quote it.
The Heat Decides the Equipment
A pump rated for a temperate climate is not rated for a 120-degree equipment pad in July. That is the single most common place a cheap bid gets cheap, and it is invisible until the second summer.
Access Decides the Schedule
If a machine cannot get to the backyard, the dig is done by hand or through the side yard, and that is a real cost difference. We tell you that at the quote, not halfway through.
Ask us to walk your yard before you take any quote, including ours.
What Drives the Cost of a Phoenix Pool
We are not going to put a single number on this page, and here is why. A number on a website is either so wide it tells you nothing or so narrow it is wrong for your yard. What we can do is tell you exactly what moves it.
What Drives the Cost of a New Custom Pool in Phoenix
- Size and depth, which is the obvious one and usually not the biggest one
- Excavation conditions, mainly caliche and access
- The finish: plaster, pebble or tile, and the gap between them is wide
- Water features, lighting and automation
- Decking material and square footage
- Equipment specification, which is where the long-term cost lives
What Drives the Cost to Replaster / Resurface a Pool
- The surface you choose, and whether the existing shell needs repair underneath
- Waterline tile, which is usually replaced at the same time because the pool is already drained
- Whether the plumbing and equipment are due at the same time
- Square footage of interior surface, not the footprint of the yard
Reviews
That Name Doug and Terry by Name
After getting several quotes for upgrading our pool, we have decided to go with Terry/True Blue Pools mainly because of his ratings and BBB recommendations. In fact it was a very good decision for us because Terry did a very nice and good quality job on our pool. He gave us many options with very reasonable prices. He was at the site when it is necessary to check the ongoing work to make sure everything was going according to the plan.
I can recommend TRUE BLUE POOLS for anyone without any hesitation.
True Blue Pools was heaven sent!!! We sought proposals from many other pool companies for a pool PebbleTec resurfacing and tile decking replacement and upgrades. They provided very competitive costs and shorter time for completion. They also made every deadline and completed the project as they promised. They went to extra mile to make sure we were 100% satisficed. True Blue Pools will remain very successful because they earn your trust and are master craftsman. We will use them again if the opportunity arises.
Terry and his team did an amazing job building my pool and installing the filter. Him and Doug constantly checked on the progress throughout the process, and kept constant communication with me each step of the way. A family business where they get their hands on every job that they do, and constantly checked on every progress is always better than a commercial business. I would recommend True Blue Pools to anyone who would like a pool built in their home.
Our Step-by-Step Custom Pool Process
Schedule A Design & Layout Consultation
To start our simple step-by-step process, give us a call and schedule a meeting where we will work with you to design your pool and assess the best layout for your property with our 3-D pool builder!
Review Any Details & Estimates Before Building
Our second step involves a review of all the project details and estimates, ensuring that we align with your vision and expectations before proceeding with the construction of your custom pool and spa.
We Start Excavating & Install The Steel
Upon approval, we progress to the excavation phase, where we carefully prepare the designed area. Once excavation is complete, we begin the installation of the steel framework.
Plumbing For The Circulation & Main Drain System
After the steel framework is in place, our next step involves plumbing for the circulation and main drain system. This meticulous plumbing work is essential to create a system that maintains water clarity, hygiene, and overall performance.
Concrete, Tile & Decking Installation
Our next step is to pour and shape the pool’s concrete structure. Following this, we expertly install the tile and decking, bringing the aesthetic and functional elements to life!
Pool Interior Finish & Start-Up
In the final stages, we focus on the pool’s interior, applying the finishing touches that define your pool’s appearance and feel. Once this is done, we initiate the start-up process, ensuring all systems are operational and balanced.
