Phoenix Custom Pool Builder, Owner-Run Since 1987
Why Phoenix Homeowners Trust Doug and Terry With Their Custom Pools
The Pentair Sta-Rite Difference
Reliability in Extreme Heat
When summer afternoons in Phoenix climb past 110 degrees, your equipment pad takes the full heat for months, which is exactly why we install Pentair Sta-Rite pumps, filters and heaters on every new pool we build.
Serviceable for the Long Haul
Using one trusted brand across the entire equipment pad means parts that fit and technicians who already know your system, so when something wears out years from now, it gets repaired quickly instead of being replaced.
Energy Efficiency That Shows on Your APS Bill
Since July 2021, federal energy rules have moved most new inground pool pumps to variable speed, and Pentair reports savings of up to 90% on pool pump energy, a difference you will notice every Phoenix summer.

What Building A Pool In Phoenix Actually Involves
City of Phoenix Permits and Setbacks
Every new pool in Phoenix needs a city permit, and it must sit at least 3 feet from your property lines, so we draw your plot plan and handle the plan review, which averages five days.
Pool Barrier Rules You Must Meet
For your family's safety, Phoenix requires a 5-foot pool barrier with self-closing, self-latching gates that swing away from the water and latches at least 54 inches high. Our staff designs that fence line from day one.
Caliche, Hillsides and Utility Lines
Much of the Valley sits on caliche, a rock-hard layer that slows digging, while hillside lots and waterfalls lengthen the city and power lines need safe clearances, so we check everything during your site visit.

What a Phoenix Pool Actually Costs
What Drives the Cost of a New Custom Pool in Phoenix
The cost of a new custom pool in Phoenix comes down to a handful of choices you control and a few site conditions you don't. Size and depth set the excavation, steel and shotcrete, while features like a raised spa, waterfall, baja step or LED lighting each add their own line. Your chosen interior finish affects both price and lifespan, and caliche or tight yard access can add labor. Our staff always prepare the best plan according to your needs giving you the exact price at the end so there are no surprises.
What Drives the Cost to Replaster / Resurface a Pool
If your pool's surface feels rough or looks stained, the cost of resurfacing starts with its size and the finish you choose. Plaster costs least, while quartz and pebble finishes like PebbleTec cost more but usually hold up longer in Phoenix heat and hard water. New waterline tile, coping or crack repairs add scope, and many owners upgrade equipment while the pool is drained. We walk the pool with you, then provide an itemized quote with no hidden fees, making sure you get the actual price from the beginning.
Reviews Read Our 5-star Reviews
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.
We’re very happy with our experience with True Blue Pools. Doug and his team were always on time, professional, and very attentive to details. They were responsive, easy to work with, and clearly took pride in their work. The pool turned out great, and we really appreciate all their help throughout the project and with the follow-up afterward. We would definitely recommend them.
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.
