Meet Your Des Moines Pool Builders

Shawn and Brandy Harmison are the owners of Premier’s Des Moines franchise. Shawn has a background in concrete as a supervisor for major commercial projects before starting his construction business. Brandy brings 13 years of experience as a scientist for one of the world’s largest scientific companies.

They see a sizeable gap in the Des Moines market, where many pool builders aren’t doing things the right way and they’re filling that gap by taking care of their customers and delivering a quality experience.

“Franchise” is almost a negative word in Iowa where everyone wants to support the little guy, but the Harmisons sit down with their customers and help them understand they could have started this venture on their own like other pool builders in the area. But once people witness the Premier experience firsthand, the franchise stigma quickly disappears.

Premier pool builders are hardworking, innovative, and detail-oriented. Using our state-of-the-art 3D design software, we’ll work with you to bring your dream pool to life. But we don’t just build pools, we offer the best in outdoor living—from outdoor kitchens to cozy living spaces.

Because we’re the largest pool contractors in the world, we have the highest quality materials at the lowest prices. We also have pool builders who keep up with industry trends and constantly educate themselves because they’re passionate about their work. With those elements combined, the value we offer is unparalleled.

Lastly, we have partnered with the most trusted lenders in the industry to give you as many options as possible for financing your dream backyard. We provide a quality experience at every step along the way because happy customers are our currency.

Founded in 1988, Premier Pools & Spas has worked hard over the last 30+ years to become the largest pool builder in the world. In that time, we have built over 75,000 pools by combining the buying power of a nationwide company with the customer service you only get from a family-owned business, which is why the DIY Network chose Premier to host their show, Pool Kings.

Buying a pool is a big decision for your family. That’s why Premier professionals emphasize clarity of communication throughout the process to ensure your peace of mind. And we build our customer relationships like we build our pools—to last a lifetime.

We’re ready to turn your backyard into your own slice of paradise. We’re here for you whenever you’re prepared to make your dream a reality.

You deserve the best. That’s us.
