Our founder, Fred von Lewinski, founded Charlottesville Aquatics more than fifty years ago and has built more than 1,250 pools in the region. We are a family-owned local business with deep ties in the community. We want to help our customers create their ideal home retreat.

Not only do we build new pools, we also can renovate existing pools to have modern amenities, such as vanishing edges, waterfall features, and tanning ledges.

Summer pool season is incredibly busy for our team, starting with opening our customers’ pools for the year. This year we opened more than 800 pools quickly and efficiently and we’re proud of that.

We take excellent care of our customers from concept through opening day. Our services include ongoing maintenance of pools and spas so that you can relax and get the most out of your backyard retreat.   

What accomplishments are you most proud of?   
We have won nearly 200 awards for our pool designs over the years and we have been continuously in business for more than 50. We have had many repeat clients over the years who have also recommended us to others.  

What else do you want us to know?
We believe in the health benefits that come from swimming and soaking in your own backyard.  

What Chamber benefits do you appreciate as a member?
We enjoy the opportunity to meet other small business owners and learn about their businesses. The Chamber also provides opportunities for our sales staff to practice and refine their pitch and product knowledge.   

Would you recommend Chamber membership to others? What would you tell them?
Chamber membership is an important part of participating in local economic development. Chamber members support one another and maintain long-lasting relationships. Richard Carey, our sales manager, who is shown in these photos, enjoys attending Chamber meetings and meeting other members.
