Safety Is Personal

Building pools is only half the job. Keeping families safe is the other half.

Why Safety Defines Us

At Sunkiss Pools, we believe building the pool is only half the job. Ensuring that every family who enjoys one of our pools does so safely is the other half — and it’s the half most pool builders never talk about.

This commitment is deeply personal for our founder, Bryan Stradling. Having experienced the loss of someone close to drowning, and having once pulled his own little sister from the water, Bryan carries a simple conviction: no child should ever drown in a pool he built.

“No child should ever drown in a pool we built.”

The Question Most Builders Never Ask

One question we ask every customer that most pool builders never bring up: “What are your plans for a pool barrier?”

It sounds simple, but it’s a question that has actually won us jobs. Customers tell us they met with four or five other builders and not one asked about barriers.

We discuss barriers early in the process, educate our customers on what their municipality requires, and make sure the right solution is planned from the start.

Pool Fencing

A minimum 4-foot barrier around the pool area, required by most Arizona municipalities.

Self-Closing & Self-Latching Gates

Gates that close and latch automatically, preventing unintended access to the pool area.

Door Alarms

Alarms on doors leading to the pool area that alert you when they are opened.

Pool Covers

Safety covers that can support weight and prevent accidental submersion.

VGB-Compliant Drain Covers

Anti-entrapment drain covers required by the Virginia Graeme Baker Act to prevent suction injuries.

Swim Lesson Sponsorship

Sunkiss Pools has sponsored swim lessons for children in our community — family members, friends, crew members’ contacts, and customers’ referrals. Last year alone, we invested approximately $6,000 to provide swim lessons for 20 to 25 people.

This isn’t a marketing program. It’s personal. It started because we believe that every child near a pool should know how to swim.

Essential Safety Tips

  • Never leave children unattended near water, even for a moment.
  • Designate a responsible adult as a "water watcher" during gatherings.
  • Learn CPR — it can make the difference between life and death.
  • Ensure your pool has a compliant barrier and self-latching gate.
  • Enroll children in age-appropriate swim lessons.
  • Keep rescue equipment (life ring, reaching pole) near the pool.
