About Us

COMPREHENSIVE, SAFETY-FOCUSED, AND DETAIL ORIENTED POOL MANAGEMENT

Headquartered in Raleigh, Wake Aquatic Partners specializes in delivering tailored pool management solutions. Serving a diverse clientele, including HOA Communities, Golf Clubs, Fitness Facilities, Municipalities, Swim Clubs, Hotels, and Homeowners, our dedicated team of certified technicians and management professionals collectively bring over 100 years of expertise to every engagement. 

Established in 2021 by three partners at a swim club in Rolesville, NC, Wake Aquatic Partners was born with a singular goal – to extend our perfected guest experience and safety training programs to elevate swim clubs across North Carolina. At Wake Aquatic Partners, we go beyond managing pools; we cultivate lasting community partnerships grounded in a commitment to quality over quantity. This approach guarantees that each of our valued partners receives an unparalleled level of industry-leading service, setting a new standard for pool management service.

"This pool season was great. The amount of compliments we received about cleanliness and attention to our pool was 100x more than we had ever received in previous pool seasons. Really appreciate the work you and your team did."
