Desert Tropics Custom Pools has been in the custom swimming pool business in the Valley since 2001. Our owner is also the Qualifying Party for our license and has a hands-on approach throughout the construction process. We don’t strive to build the most pools in the Valley, we strive to build pools that enhance the lifestyle of our customers, where both the designs and construction stand the test of time. We never use a template to put a pool in your yard. Each pool is custom product, professionally designed to meet your lifestyle and enhance the value of your home and your everyday enjoyment. Since so much of our business comes to us by referrals, we know the importance of customer satisfaction and we strive to give every customer the best swimming pool experience possible.
Our personal approach to pool building ensures continuity throughout the process, allowing you to relax in knowing your project will turn out exactly as you had envisioned.
At Desert Tropics Pools we strive to understand our customers' dreams, desires and vision for the design and function of their swimming pools and outdoor environment. While the custom design is the foundation for a superior experience, please take the time to review some frequently asked questions and inspiring ideas for optimizing your experience building your own custom swimming pool.
Our Process
When you call on Desert Tropics Pools for a pool project quote, we don’t come out and SELL you a pool. Or first meeting is to LISTEN to your ideas, evaluate and discuss the options available and to determine what style and overall feel you are trying to achieve. After an assessment of the area is performed and careful measurements are taken, our designers then create a detailed, professional pool and hardscape design for your review using the best 3D design software available to the industry. We will continue to fine tune the design until it is exactly what you envisioned.
After the design is finalized, leave the rest to us. We take care of the permits, inspections and even teach you how to operate your new pool once it is completed.
