Resurfacing in Goodyear
Goodyear does two things differently. City water customers need a drain authorization before the pool is emptied, and the city advises against refilling in January to March because that's when sewer charges are set. Plan the schedule around both.
- Tap water
- From the City of Goodyear or Liberty Utilities. Most of the area north of I-10 is on Liberty. The city says hardness varies across Goodyear.
- Draining your pool
- Goodyear Water and Sewer customers need a free Pool Drain Authorization through GOODYEAR311. It takes 24 to 48 business hours and expires 20 days after approval.
- Where it can go
- On your property or into a sewer cleanout on private property. Letting it run onto other property, public right of way or open space is illegal.
- ZIP codes we cover
- 85338, 85395
Where these facts come from: City of Goodyear, Pool Drain Authorization application; City of Goodyear water services FAQ. Rules change, so check with your city or water provider before you drain.

What to know in Goodyear
Get the drain authorization
Apply through GOODYEAR311 under Water and Sewer a few days before the job. It's free, takes 24 to 48 business hours, and is good for 20 days, so time it with your start date.
Avoid a January to March refill
Goodyear bases sewer charges on first quarter water use, so it advises against filling a pool in January, February or March. Refilling then can raise your sewer bill all year.
