“I said ‘yes’ to Pool Scouts because of the industry, the location and the team. I met with the Pool Scouts team and realized the business model is very differentiated,” Stephnoski said. “They already adapted to the uniqueness of the Florida market while maintaining brand standards.”
Based in Virginia Beach, Pool Scouts is the premier pool service franchise that provides pool cleaning, maintenance and minor repair services in over 100 territories in 17 states.
