Commercial · Wellington, FL
Since 2016, Prime Pool Builders Wellington has built competition pool and aquatic center projects for schools, HOAs, and fitness facilities that need predictable schedules and measurable performance. We handle everything from site prep and structural engineering to gutters, timing-ready plumbing, deck work, and start-up in Wellington.
Prep and base work set the accuracy of a competition pool, so we start with survey-grade layout, elevation benchmarks, and a clear plan for lane alignment, wall straightness, and deck slopes. Our crews handle clearing, excavation, dewatering when needed, and compaction with stabilized subgrade, then form the shell with steel rebar cages tied to engineering, including steps, bulkheads, and equipment pads. We rough-in plumbing with properly sized suction and return lines, main drains with compliant covers, and dedicated lines for vacuum and features, then place concrete with tight tolerance checks before cure.
South Florida ground conditions demand smart drainage and durable finishes, especially for high-bather-load aquatic centers. We build around the water table with hydrostatic relief planning, under-deck drainage, and positive deck pitch to trench drains or area drains, reducing ponding and slip risk. Finish options include competition-grade tile lane markings, slip-resistant pool deck coatings, broom-finish concrete, and durable coping materials such as precast concrete, brick, or stone with properly tooled joints. For water quality and clarity, we spec commercial pumps, cartridge or high-rate sand filtration, automated chemical control (ORP/pH), and UV or ozone add-ons when required for combined chlorine reduction.
Wellington clients choose us because we treat a competition pool like a piece of athletic infrastructure, not a backyard amenity. You get clear submittals, equipment cut sheets, and coordination with civil, MEP, and facility stakeholders so drains, electrical, and controller locations land where the plans show. Our builds prioritize straight walls, consistent depth transitions, stable deck elevations, and serviceable mechanical rooms with labeled valves, unions, and isolation points. Licensed and insured project management keeps inspections moving and helps reduce downtime for schools, parks, and clubs.
Before turnover, we walk the deck and mechanical area with your team and verify circulation balance, vacuum ports, skimmer and gutter performance, and pump priming behavior under real operating conditions. You receive an as-built oriented closeout packet including equipment model numbers, valve maps, start-up readings, and maintenance basics for filters, chemical feeders, and controllers. We can train staff on backwash procedures, chemical automation setpoints, and daily log practices, then support the first weeks of operation with follow-up checks. The result is a competition pool that is easier to maintain, safer to operate, and ready for lap swimming, meets, and heavy daily use.

Yes. We provide a free written estimate after an on-site evaluation to confirm access, elevations, utilities, and scope.
Timelines vary by design, permitting, weather, and material lead times, but most gunite pool builds run several weeks from excavation through plaster and start-up. We provide a schedule outline with your estimate.
Often, yes. If the shell is structurally sound, a remodel may include resurfacing, tile and coping, deck repairs, new skimmers and returns, and a full equipment upgrade.
We coordinate permitting and inspection steps required for pool construction, including electrical and barrier-related items, based on the project scope.
We build custom shapes and practical features like spas, sun shelves, benches, LED lights, water features, and automation-controlled systems, based on your layout, setbacks, and budget.
A competition pool has to do more than hold water. Lane geometry, consistent depths, deck drainage, and reliable circulation all affect safety, meet readiness, and long-term operating cost. Prime Pool Builders Wellington builds competition pool and aquatic center facilities for schools, HOAs, parks, and fitness centers, managing the project from engineered layout through start-up and staff handoff. Since 2016, we have focused on build quality you can measure, straight walls, stable elevations, and mechanical systems that service teams can maintain without guesswork.
Our competition pool process starts with preconstruction coordination: design intent, bather load targets, equipment room needs, and how swimmers and staff will move through the deck. We build the structure with reinforced concrete, properly tied steel, and precise forming, then install plumbing sized for turnover rate and hydraulic performance. Depending on the program, we can integrate perimeter overflow gutters, lane-marker tile, recessed wall fittings, and dedicated lines for vacuum and training equipment.
Wellington facilities also need materials that stand up to sun, chemicals, and constant use. We install durable coping and deck systems with correct pitch to trench drains or area drains, plus expansion joints and sealants where they belong. Mechanical rooms are laid out for serviceability with labeled valves, unions, check valves, strainers, and accessible controllers. If your health department or design team calls for supplemental sanitation, we can add UV or ozone to help manage chloramines while keeping water clear for competition.
At turnover, you get a documented start-up, water balance targets, and a walkthrough that covers filtration maintenance, controller operation, and basic troubleshooting. If you are planning a new aquatic center or replacing an aging facility, we can provide a free written estimate and a clear construction plan for your competition pool so you can budget, schedule, and operate with confidence.
Call now or send a request and we will reach out within one business day to schedule your free, no-obligation estimate in Wellington. We assess the project, review the details, and give you a written quote before any work starts, so you know exactly what to expect.
