Once again, Pool & Spa News ranks Elite Weiler Pools of Sarasota in the Top 50 Pool & Spa Builders for the year.
“New home construction in Tampa, Fla., increased 25- to 30 percent in 2005. Pool-building firms such as Elite Weiler Pools Inc. had their hands full.
‘There was a tremendous boom in home building,’ says John D. Kennedy, CEO of the Sarasota, Fla.-based firm (No. 35). ‘Many of our clients are national home builders. It was an extremely busy time.’
As a result of their numerous successes in the past five years, the company opened a second pool operation called Superior Pools of Southwest Florida Inc. (No. 25).
‘They’re two separate, stand-alone companies with basically the same owners, but we did this to be able to consolidate the geographic areas that we serve so we can better service our customers in terms of performing construction,’ Kennedy says.
