Drew Holderby started Copper State Pools in 2009 after working in the Paramedic & Fire Department for 10 years. It was no coincidence as cleaning pools helped him get through college and get a degree in Biology at Arizona State University.

Back then, he saw the mistakes that other builders made — the cookie-cutter, splash-and-dash approach that unwitting homeowners had to suffer with.

And that’s why when he founded Copper State Pool Services, his goal was to build pools and backyards that clients will find both stunning and functional — a place where they could build a lifetime of memories.

Along the way, Copper State Pools received the following certifications and awards:

We firmly believe that the backyard should be a DESTINATION, and designed accordingly with practicality and functionality. Anyone can design something that looks good on paper. But to design AND build it so that it looks amazing and a joy to use?

That’s what makes us stand out.

To achieve this, we approach the design process with “the end-user” in mind. We take no short-cuts and always keep our clients up to speed because we want to bring their vision to life without sacrificing functionality and practicality.

At Copper State Pool Services, we make memories happen.
