About Edgewater Premier Pools

Meet Edgewater Premier Pools

Hill Country’s Trusted Name in Luxury Pool Design & Craftsmanship

At Edgewater Premier Pools, we don’t just build pools — we build relationships, transform backyards, and elevate the standard for what it means to create outdoor luxury in the Texas Hill Country. With deep roots in Kerrville and Fredericksburg, our company was born from a desire to raise the bar on quality, transparency, and customer experience in the pool industry.

Our founders saw too many neighbors left frustrated by poor communication, unclear pricing, and subpar results from out-of-town companies. That’s why we started Edgewater — to offer something better: a refined, reliable, and high-integrity approach to custom pool design and construction. From day one, we’ve been focused on delivering a process as exceptional as the final product.

Built by Hill Country Natives with a Passion for Quality

From Friendships to Foundations — How Edgewater Was Born

Edgewater Premier Pools was founded in 2020 by Bradley Harvey and Rusty Risinger — lifelong friends and seasoned builders who grew up in the Texas Hill Country. With over four decades of combined experience in construction, business, and client service, Brad and Rusty shared a vision: to create a custom pool company that prioritizes trust, clarity, and quality from start to finish.

Brad, a Texas State-trained engineer with a business background, brings meticulous structure and a systems mindset to every project. Rusty, a second-generation craftsman and full-time paramedic, combines design intuition with a tireless work ethic and deep understanding of trades.

Together, they launched Edgewater as a hands-on, client-first company — and even today, they stay closely involved with every project, ensuring no detail is overlooked.
