Custom Pool Builder in Tempe, AZ

Tempe has many established neighborhoods where homes and pools were built decades ago, alongside newer construction. Overflow Pool Construction & Repair builds new custom pools in Tempe and is especially well suited to the remodels and repairs that older Tempe pools need.

Owner Dane Palmero started in the pool industry in 1978 working on repairs and maintenance before moving into design and construction, so he knows how older pools are put together and what it takes to renew them.

A few of the pools and outdoor spaces Overflow Pools has designed and built across the Phoenix metro. See more in our photo gallery and project portfolio.

Overflow Pools handles the whole life of a pool in Tempe, from the first design to remodels and repairs years later. Our full list of pool services includes:

• New custom pools and spas, designed in 3-D before construction, including vanishing edges, sun shelves and spools
• Pool remodeling: plaster, pebble and mini pebble finishes, waterline tile, coping and decking such as travertine, flagstone and Kool Deck
• Water and fire features: sheer descents, natural rock waterfalls, bubblers and fire bowls
• Equipment and repair: variable speed pumps, filters, heaters and heat pumps, LED lighting, valves and automation
• Outdoor living: BBQs and outdoor kitchens, fireplaces and fire pits

A typical Tempe remodel might include a new pebble or plaster finish, new waterline tile and coping, resurfaced decking, and replacing an aging single-speed pump with an energy-efficient variable speed model. Lights, valves and automation can be modernized at the same time.

For new pools on smaller Tempe lots, we design compact layouts that still feel generous: a spool, a raised spa with a sheer descent, or a geometric pool that leaves room for a covered patio and seating.

Overflow Pool Construction & Repair is owned by Dane Palmero, who began in the pool industry in 1978 as an underwater pool repair specialist and has designed and built pools since 1982. He personally designs every project and is the author of the Ultimate Pool Buyers Guide.

Our work has earned a World’s Greatest Pools award, and we were chosen to build the custom big cat pools for the Phoenix Zoo, a project you can read about in No Kitty Pool: A Builder Tackles the Big Cats.

Should I replace the pump on my older Tempe pool?

Often, yes. A variable speed pump can run at lower speeds for most of the day, which typically uses far less energy than an older single-speed pump. We can install it and program it for your pool.

Do I need a permit to build a pool in Tempe?

Yes. New pools in Tempe require a building permit and inspections through the City of Tempe, along with a compliant pool safety barrier before the pool is filled. We plan for those requirements as part of the design.

How long does it take to build a pool in Tempe?

It depends on the design, the site and the permitting and inspection schedule. We give you a realistic timeline with your proposal, before any work starts.

Do you repair pool equipment in Tempe?

Yes. We repair and replace pumps, motors, filters, heaters and heat pumps, lights, valves and automation systems such as AquaLink, IntelliTouch and EasyTouch, and we find and fix leaks.

Do you offer budget-friendly pools in Tempe?

Yes, through our sister company Simply Fun Pools, which offers a range of fixed-plan pools built by the same team. For custom designs and water features, Overflow Pools handles the project.
