Mike Henry
President & Founder of Paragon Pool & Spa — over 50 years of hands-on pool industry experience.
About Mike Henry
Mike Henry began his career in the pool industry as a laborer in the early 1970s, working for a large pool company. Over the years, he immersed himself in every stage of pool construction — from excavation to finishing — gaining hands-on expertise that would become the foundation of his business.
After working his way up and developing deep knowledge of pool design and sales, Mike branched out on his own and founded Paragon Pool and Patio, Inc. in 1990. His vision was simple: provide homeowners with well-built, private pools backed by honest service and competitive pricing.
Today, more than 35 years later, Mike is still on-site for every Paragon project, personally supervising to ensure everything goes according to plan. That hands-on commitment is what sets Paragon apart from larger competitors.

Irene Boyd
Pool Construction
“Twenty-one years ago, we decided to put in a pool in our backyard. We talked with, and carefully evaluated, every local pool builder. We decided to go with Mike Henry and Paragon Pools, and all these years later we are happy we did. Mike was professional and effectively built a pool that stood the test of time. It's been a blessing for our family and friends.”
