One of the largest global franchise pool service brands, Poolwerx, continues its ambitious growth plans with the announcement of Franchise Owners Donald and Phyllis Lewis serving Riverside, Calif. The husband-and-wife team brings decades of professional experience, a strong service mindset and a shared goal of building a lasting family legacy through business ownership.
“Pools are where some of life’s best moments happen, and we’re thrilled to bring Poolwerx to Riverside to help protect those poolside memories,” says Phyllis Lewis, co-owner of Poolwerx Riverside. “What stood out most was the level of support and the depth of expertise behind the brand. Knowing we were entering business with proven systems, ongoing training and a strong network of franchise partners made the decision an easy one.”
Donald brings more than 25 years of project management experience to the business, including managing large-scale projects. His background ensures that Poolwerx has efficient operations, reliable service and consistent quality for customers throughout the Riverside area. Phyllis complements the operation with more than two decades of experience in human resources management and residential real estate sales, providing a strong foundation in customer service, team development and an understanding of homeowners’ needs.
Together, the couple is focused on elevating the pool service experience in their community. Having experienced inconsistent service as pool owners themselves, they are driven to raise the standard in an industry that directly impacts customers’ daily enjoyment and quality of life. They’re excited to bring Poolwerx’s proven system to deliver the professionalism and care pool owners deserve.
As demand for professional pool maintenance continues to rise, the owners believe Poolwerx’s structured training programs and ongoing support systems will be key drivers of long-term success. From comprehensive onboarding to accessible online training modules for both owners and technicians, the franchise model provides the tools needed to scale while maintaining high service standards.
“At Poolwerx, we look for franchise partners who lead with integrity and a genuine desire to serve,” says Blake Overduin, COO of Poolwerx USA. “Donald and Phyllis embody those values, and we’re proud to support them as they introduce the Poolwerx experience to Riverside. We’re excited to see the positive impact their team will have in helping local pool owners enjoy healthier pools.”
