Our Story:
Crafting Exceptional Pools & Outdoor Retreats
Premier Gunite Pools began with Gairad DeCastro’s passion for the outdoors and hands-on craftsmanship, leading him to launch a top-rated design/build company on Aquidneck Island in 2007. From humble beginnings to a sought-after pool contractor, we’ve built a reputation for creative, high-quality, and reliable inground pools. From coastal estates in Newport to private retreats in East Greenwich, we bring decades of expertise in designing backyard escapes where families unwind, entertain, and make lasting memories. Guided by the belief that “If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right,” we ensure every pool is built to exceed expectations.
Built on Quality & Customer Experience
From the beginning, Premier Gunite Pools was built on the belief that luxury pools should be more than just an installation—they should be a stress-free, full-service experience. That’s why we created the Premier Experience: an all-inclusive approach to pool design and construction that ensures exceptional results, clear communication, and a smooth process from start to finish.
Too often, homeowners face confusing timelines, unexpected costs, and the headache of juggling multiple contractors. We wanted to change that. The Premier Experience is our solution—a streamlined, all-inclusive process that delivers high-end results without the hassle.
Luxury Pools Designed for the Way You Live
From modern, geometric pools in Jamestown to natural freeform designs in Narragansett, every project is tailored to your home, your lifestyle, and your vision. Whether you’re dreaming of a sleek infinity pool, a custom spa, or a complete outdoor living space with a patio, fire pit, and outdoor kitchen, our team has the experience and expertise to bring it to life.

Client Testimonials
“We had always wanted an inground pool & thought it would be impossible with such a small yard. After a consult with Gairad in June 2020 he assured us it was possible & had the plans within a week. From start to finish Gairad, Matt & their crew were very professional, friendly & knowledgeable. Sure there were some unforeseen bumps along the way due to material shortages, totally out of their control but they worked through them with us. We are absolutely thrilled with the end result & we can not recommend Premier landscape enough.”
