CENTER MORICHES, NY — For more than 30 years, The Pool Man has operated from Center Moriches as a locally based swimming pool contractor serving homeowners across Eastern Suffolk County.
Owner Kevin Cherwinski remains directly involved in the business, particularly on construction and renovation projects. The company says customers work with Cherwinski from the first visit through the final walkthrough, while a dedicated service crew handles ongoing maintenance and routine pool care.
The Pool Man’s service area stretches across much of the South Shore and East End, including Center Moriches, East Moriches, Eastport, Remsenburg, Westhampton, Westhampton Beach, Quogue, Hampton Bays, Shirley, Mastic, Mastic Beach, Manorville, Brookhaven, Bellport and Patchogue.
Its work covers the full life cycle of a residential pool. The company offers custom gunite and vinyl inground pools, spas, tanning ledges and water features, along with vinyl liner replacement, heater installation and repair, weekly maintenance, seasonal openings and closings, equipment repairs and emergency service.
The Pool Man also holds a Certified Builder Professional credential through the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance, which lists the Center Moriches company as a service business associated with Cherwinski. A separate Long Island pool-industry directory lists the business as holding a verified Suffolk County home improvement contractor license.
According to Better Business Bureau records, the business dates to 1995, with Cherwinski listed as president. The BBB profile notes more than three decades in business, though the company is not BBB accredited and is currently not rated by the organization.
What distinguishes the operation most clearly is its owner-operated model. Rather than routing large projects through a distant sales or management structure, The Pool Man emphasizes direct involvement from Cherwinski on builds and renovations, while still maintaining the service infrastructure needed for weekly cleaning, water balancing, equipment checks and seasonal care.
That combination of construction experience, routine service and local coverage has allowed the company to remain a familiar name in Eastern Suffolk’s pool industry for more than three decades.
