Family Owned

Andy Roach founded Sunny Arizona Pool Service in 2012, after a successful, fifteen year professional hockey career in Europe and North America. Andy lives with his wife, Laurel, and daughter, London, in beautiful North Scottsdale. The Sunny Arizona Pool Service team consists of Andy and three service technicians, including his younger brother DJ. 

Service Focused

Sunny Arizona Pool Service distinguishes itself from the competition through offering exceptional quality pool care, operational expertise and owner accessibility. All weekly service technicians have over four years experience in pool care and are thoroughly trained in all aspects and functions of pool equipment, so they are able to troubleshoot most issues. Any pool service technician can test your water, adjust chemicals and clean your pool, but if they don't have an understanding of how the equipment works, your pool may not be operating as efficient as it should be. If customers ever have an issue or problem with their pool, they can always reach owner, Andy Roach, directly by phone or email.
