HAL: “Bennett owes $50,155. The dig draw is due today.”
Sound familiar?

The pool is the easy part.

It's everything around it. The callback you forgot, the quote on a napkin, the permit nobody checked, the draw nobody asked for.

  • Leads, quotes, builds and money in one place
  • It tells you what needs you, before it costs you
  • Your crew, your customers and your books stay in step

Sell · Quote

Quotes from your price book. To the cent.

Your costs and your margins, never anybody else's. Price it the way you think: margin, markup, cost-plus or a fixed number.

  • We build your price book from your own price file
  • Shows the dollars, so margin and markup never get mixed up
  • It won't send a quote below your cost

Sell · Catch the misses

It catches the misses before they eat your margin.

It asks the questions that cost money when they're skipped, and figures the amounts that cost money when they're guessed.

  • Pipe and fittings worked out from the pool and the pad
  • Poolkrete, deck concrete and backfill figured, not guessed
  • Warnings when something isn't in the price

What one tap does
Build · Order

Order it with the job's PO. The replies file themselves.

Every job gets a PO number at the quote. Copy it in one tap, order from your suppliers, and their emails land on the right job.

  • One tap to your supplier and lender portals
  • Supplier quotes, invoices and deliveries filed by PO
  • Anything it can't match waits for you to review
Copy the PO, then check the job inbox

Build · The board

Every build on one board.

Your big steps across the top, in your own words. A color and a date in every box. Switch views in one tap.

Build · Schedule

Set dig day. The rest pencils itself in.

Move it and everything after it slides. Once three of your own jobs finish a step, it schedules with your real times.

  • No re-typing a schedule when one date moves
  • Learns how long your crews really take
  • Goes on your phone's calendar too

It rained. Fix the whole week in one tap.

Pick the day you lost. Every job shifts, the spacing between steps stays the same, and the texts are already written.

Build · Dig-day check

Nobody digs until it's ready.

Eight checks before the excavator rolls. It warns, it doesn't block, and “dig anyway” goes on the record with a reason.

  • Permit, HOA and 811 dates tracked on every job
  • Deliveries checked off as they land
  • Permit expiry warnings before they bite

Own it · The next 30 years

The pool is finished. The work isn't.

Over 30 years one pool needs liners, salt cells, pumps, heaters and covers. Today that work goes to whoever they find on Google.

Pools you've built
120
Each one needs this over 30 years

replacement jobs over 30 years. With MyPool, your name and number are on every one of those homeowners' phones, and their equipment is already on file with you.

Ceiling, not a promise: liners are for vinyl pools and salt cells for salt pools. Counts from typical part lifespans.
Pad QR tag
“Your pool's manual lives here.”

Laminated and zip-tied at the equipment pad. Scan it and their app opens, with your number on it.

Cover measurement on file
Reorder a safety cover with no site visit.

Saved with every pool order, cover bought or not. Years later, the reorder is a phone call to you.

Printable freeze card
The night it freezes, they know what to do.

Pump setting, valves, breakers and drain plugs, filled in for their pad.

Own it · At the kitchen table

MyPool sells your next pool, too.

Hand them your phone and show them the app they'll have for as long as they own the pool. Then show them what everybody else hands over.

The fine print, in plain English

Your business stays yours.

Promises we put in writing, because you're trusting us with the most valuable thing you own: your customer list.

Your customers are yours

We never contact, market to or sell to your homeowners. That holds even if Boltarra is ever sold.

Your data is yours

Export your jobs, customers, quotes, costs and records any time, at no charge. We never sell your data.

Month to month

No contract, no setup fee, no per-user fees. If you want out, you're out.

Walled off by the database

Every dealer's records are sealed off by the database itself, not just by the app. Nobody sees yours.

Support only with your say-so

You turn support access on and off yourself, and every look is logged where you can read it.

Works beside what you use

Keep QuickBooks, your phone and your bank. Poolhouse fills in around them instead of replacing them.

Poolhouse by Boltarra

Less paperwork. More pools.

Quote it, build it, and own the next thirty years of it, from one place, with your name on everything your customer sees.

KL

Built by Kenny Lewis after 13 years building pools in Oklahoma. It runs Southern Sky Pool and Spa and Oklahoma Pool Cover Company every day.

Launch price · first 100 dealers
$199 / month
  • Everything in this tour, with MyPool for every customer (Beth is extra)
  • Keep $199 for as long as you stay
  • No setup fee, ever. We build your price book
  • Month to month. $299 after the first 100
One short pipe order, one wrong pump or one under-figured deck pour can cost you more than a year of Poolhouse ($2,388).
