Company History
Burbach Aquatics, Inc., began in 1978 when founder, David F. Burbach, opened up Burbach Municipal and Civil Engineers, LLC in Platteville, Wisconsin. Out of this office, Burbach would provide Engineering Professional Services to several communities in Southwestern Wisconsin. As the business expanded and grew, Mr. Burbach recognized that there was a need in these communities for a qualified engineer to help them with their swimming pools. A swimming pool project is a very detailed and complex infrastructure project, much different than your standard street or building infrastructure project. Having gained experience by helping several communities design new swimming pools or extend the life of their existing swimming pool, Mr. Burbach decided, early in his career, to focus solely on aquatic engineering and created Burbach Aquatics, LLC.
Burbach Aquatics, LLC. started providing Aquatic Engineering Professional Services to clients in Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota. Burbach Aquatics, exceptional customer service, detail to design and quality of our aquatic facilities we continued to expanded west, as Cities in Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Wyoming started asking for Burbach Aquatics assistance with figuring out the future of swimming in their communities.
The success of the aquatic facilities designed by the firm and growth of the business created a need for an expansion of the business once again which brought about Burbach Aquatics, LLC. becoming Burbach Aquatics, Inc.
Burbach Aquatics, Inc. has encountered many design challenges over the years from building a pool in the middle of the Mississippi river, to historic bathhouse renovations, or designing FEMA Storm Shelters that can withstand a F-5 tornado.
