About DadPool · East Valley, Arizona
We’re Arizona dads. Our kids wanted to swim, too.
Arizona summers are brutal, and kids notice. A built-in pool costs upwards of $60,000. Public pools are a hassle. And setting up an above-ground pool yourself turns into a second part-time job.
So in 2025 we started DadPool: we bring the pool, set it up, clean it every week, and take it away when you’re done.

Local people. Honest work.
“We had a flawless experience from the first Instagram inquiry I sent all the way through the install. Nate was kind, communicative, and reliable and we are happy to spend our money supporting a local company doing honest work.”
Why DadPool Exists
Every family wants a pool. Not every family wants to own one.
It’s 112°. The kids want to swim. Again.
Without a pool at home, somebody has to make swimming happen. Swimsuits, towels, sunscreen, snacks, floaties, everybody in the car. Drive somewhere. Swim for an hour. Do it all again in reverse.
The usual fixes didn’t make sense to us either. Spending upwards of $60,000 on a pool you really want five months of the year is a lot of commitment. Buying an above-ground pool yourself means you’re the one setting it up, balancing chemicals, cleaning it, fixing the pump, and finding somewhere to store it.
So we built the option we wanted for our own families.
A pool for the months you’ll actually use it, with somebody else handling the pool part.
You swim. We handle the pool.

How we run DadPool.

1
The truth comes before the sale.
If your yard has no shade, we’ll tell you. If a pool size won’t fit, we’ll tell you that too.
And if we install your pool and the property turns out not to work, we take it down. You only pay for the time you had it.

Service is part of the pool.
We don’t drop a box in your driveway and wish you luck.
We deliver, set up, clean every week, troubleshoot, tear down and haul it away. All of it is included, and it’s why DadPool works.

You swim. You don’t become the pool guy.
Nobody dreams about testing chemicals on a Saturday morning.
If the pool needs a patch or a piece of equipment needs replacing during your rental, we handle it.

We treat your backyard like our own.
We show up on time, ready to work. We tell you clearly what’s happening and when.
And we leave your property better than we found it.
What It’s Like Working With Us
“They were dependable, professional, and made the entire process so easy from start to finish.”
Jenny’s family had us set up their pool, maintain it all summer, and take it down at the end of the season. She says they’ll be using us again.
The Question We Hear Most
“What if something goes wrong with the pool?”
Fair question. When you own a pool, the answer is “you fix it.”
With DadPool, the answer is us. We’re already at your house every week to clean the pool. If something needs a patch or a part during your rental, we take care of it.
And because we’re a small local team, you deal with the people who put the pool in your yard instead of a national hotline.
The pool is there for the part you actually want: swimming.
