Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in a pre-purchase pool inspection?

Our pre-purchase inspection covers the pool structure (shell, surface, tiles, coping), all equipment (pump, filter, chlorinator, heater if present), safety compliance (fencing, gates, signage), water quality testing, and a visual inspection of visible plumbing. You receive a detailed report with photos and repair cost estimates.

How long does a pool inspection take?

A comprehensive pool inspection typically takes 1-2 hours depending on the size of the pool and complexity of the equipment. We take our time to be thorough - rushing an inspection means missing important issues.

When will I receive my inspection report?

We provide your detailed written report within 24-48 hours of the inspection. For urgent situations like pending property settlements, we can provide a preliminary verbal report on the day with the written report to follow.

Should I get a pool inspection before buying a house?

Absolutely. Pool repairs can be expensive - shell repairs, equipment replacement, or safety compliance issues can cost thousands. A $300-400 inspection can save you from unexpected costs or give you negotiating power on the purchase price.

Can you certify pool safety compliance?

We can assess your pool fence and safety features against current regulations and identify any non-compliance issues. However, official pool safety certificates must be issued by a licensed pool safety inspector. We can recommend certified inspectors if you need formal certification.

Do you inspect above-ground pools and spas?

Yes, we inspect all types of pools including above-ground pools, in-ground pools, and spas/hot tubs. Each type has its own considerations and potential issues that we're trained to identify.
