Sean began his career in the swimming pool business at the age sixteen, doing much of the “dirty work” at his father’s pool company. After paying his dues, Sean took on more responsibilities such as organizing the warehouse and purchasing materials. In 1984, he opened Premier Landscape, a successful landscape design firm that eventually branched out into building fences, wood decks, patios, arbors and ponds. In 1989, Sean and his brother Peter joined forces with their father Tommie to form Premier Pools. Today, Sean supervises the company’s pool, cabana and outdoor living construction as well as landscape design. Married for 30 years with two sons, Sean, when he’s not working, enjoys spending weekends at the track pursuing his other great love – racing cars on the NHRA circuit. 

A 1985 graduate of Jesuit High School in Dallas, Peter’s first job was working alongside his brother Sean in the landscaping business. It was there that Peter developed his rare ability to design outdoor environments and water features with rock. It is a talent that comes naturally to him in that both his father and uncles were rock masons. When he joined his father and brother at Premier Pools in 1989, both his creativity and his reputation grew exponentially. Today, Peter has established himself as one of the premier pool designers in the business. He listens intently to what each client envisions before beginning the painstaking process of creating a plan that fulfills that vision. In his spare time, Peter loves spending time with his four children, biking, tennis, fishing and cutting horses. 

Tommie came to America from his native Ireland, where he served an apprenticeship in the building trades. His skills served him well and landed him a job at a top-rated pool building company in 1954. It was there that Tommie was able to perfect his craft. In 1959, Tommie followed the American dream and launched his own pool service and repair company. Over the years, he earned a reputation for building pools of enduring quality that required less maintenance. As the company expanded, so did Tommie’s responsibilities, which grew to include pool design, sales, marketing, and managing a growing workforce. Today, Tommie serves in an advisory role to Premier Pools and still receives referrals, many from a second generation of clients whose parents are satisfied customers.
