Trivest Partners Announces Formation of AquaVerse, a Platform Supporting Local Pool Service Brands

PALM BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Trivest Partners (“Trivest”), a private investment firm focused exclusively on partnering with founder- and family-owned businesses, today announced the formation of AquaVerse, a platform created to support, grow, and unify a family of pool service brands across multiple markets.

Today, AquaVerse is home to eight consumer-facing brands across Florida, Georgia, and Tennessee, including Pool Service Unlimited, Terry's Pool Service, PB Pool Doc, PoolTek Pool Services, Caribbean Pools, Yummy Pools, West Meade Pools, and Jeff Wilson Pool Service. Together, these brands serve more than 10,000 customers through trusted local teams dedicated to delivering exceptional service in their communities.

AquaVerse was formed in response to increasing demand for professional pool care and the growing need for independent operators to leverage technology, recruiting, training, and operational resources while maintaining the local identities that have earned the trust of customers in their communities. AquaVerse is led by Chief Executive Officer Josh Sevick and a seasoned executive team with decades of experience leading private equity-backed residential services businesses.

“Our goal with AquaVerse is simple,” said Josh Sevick, Chief Executive Officer of AquaVerse. “We believe great local pool service companies are built on relationships, reputation, and service. AquaVerse was created to support those businesses with the resources, infrastructure, and operational capabilities needed to help them continue growing while staying true to what makes them successful.”

“Customers won’t see disruption; they’ll see investment,” added David Flax, Chief Operating Officer of AquaVerse. “Our local teams remain at the center of everything we do. By adding best-in-class centralized key support functions, we can help our brands focus on serving customers while providing the tools and resources needed to support long-term growth.”

“Josh, David, and the broader AquaVerse team have built a strong foundation rooted in local market expertise and operational excellence,” said Reid Callaway, Managing Director at Trivest Partners. “We are excited to partner with the team as they build a family of brands that supports established pool service companies, invests in their continued development, and preserves the qualities that have earned the trust of customers in their communities.”

AquaVerse is headquartered in Palm Beach, Florida and is actively seeking partnerships with founder-led pool service operators who have built strong local reputations and are looking for additional resources to accelerate growth, develop their teams, and preserve their legacy.
