ABOUT POOL-EX
The people behind the pools
An owner-operated, Aylmer-based crew building and servicing pools across Southwestern Ontario since 2021.
Our Story
Built in Aylmer, for Aylmer
Pool-Ex started in 2021 with a simple frustration: too many homeowners were getting big-company runaround on the biggest backyard investment of their lives. Founder Ivan Hernandez believed a pool project should feel personal — one team, one point of contact, one standard of quality.
That's exactly how we still work. The person who quotes your project is on site when it's built, and the number you call is answered by someone who knows your project by name. It's why Pool-Ex is BBB A+ accredited and why most of our work comes from referrals.

What We Stand For
How we work
Do it once, do it right
We don't cut corners you can't see. Proper base work, proper plumbing, proper backfill — because a pool is only as good as what's underneath it.
Radical transparency
Line-item quotes, honest timelines and straight answers — including 'no' when something isn't right for your yard or budget.
Neighbours, not numbers
We live where we build — and we stand behind every pool we've ever built here.
