Who We Are

At XXVI POOLS, we believe that less is more—and excellence is everything. We build only 26 custom pools per year, allowing us to pour our full attention, creativity, and craftsmanship into each project. That’s not just a number—it’s our promise of quality.

We’re not chasing volume. We’re chasing perfection.

Each pool we build is a reflection of our values: integrity, transparency, and purpose-driven design. We take pride in doing much of the work ourselves, ensuring that every step— from excavation to final finishes—meets our exact standards. We're not just building pools. We're building spaces for families to connect, laughter to echo, and memories to be made.

Our mission is rooted in something deeper. We strive to honor God in our work, creating places where love can thrive and joy can flourish.

If you’ve made it this far, you’re not just looking for a pool. You’re looking for a masterpiece—built with intention, delivered with care, and backed by a company that believes in doing things the right way, every time.

Let’s make something extraordinary.

    Ryan LaGanke

    Ryan landed in the pool industry over six years ago following
    a four-year running career and acquiring a business degree from the University
    of North Alabama. This is where he would begin his walk with the Lord and then
    be positioned in the pool industry. He served in Operations Management, Project
    Management as well as Sales and Design for two of the larger builders in
    Northeast Florida. With several hundred projects managed and built, along with
    a few thousand designs completed, the Lord showed him a need in the marketplace
    for high-end owner/operators in this market. The thing Ryan found in his time
    in the industry is that people ultimately cared about communication and
    quality. XXVI Pools is here to serve the marketplace for people who value a
    close relationship during the construction of their new backyard. Through
    experience, Ryan understands what this is supposed to look like. We appreciate the
    opportunity to work with you from beginning to end.

    Sean Bohannon

    With over five years in the pool industry, Sean began his career designing luxury outdoor spaces before leading a team of designers and managing three high-end showrooms as Sales Manager. Holding a degree in Finance from the University of North Florida, Sean blends business insight with hands-on skill — from CAD design and structural planning to personally rebuilding engines, aircraft, and even an autonomous lawn mower.

    A new believer in Christ, Sean founded XXVI Pools with a desire to bring integrity and faith back into an industry that often overlooks both. Guided by patience, precision, and purpose, he believes that excellence is not found in rushing, but in building with intention — and with God at the center.
