Pool Inspections for Buyers and Owners
What a pool inspection covers
Plumbing integrity
Pressure checks on the lines and a water-loss assessment to catch leaks before closing.
Equipment age and condition
Pump, filter, heater and sanitizer identified by model and date, with expected years left.
Deck and coping
Base failure, cracking, drainage and trip hazards around the whole perimeter.
Safety and code
Barriers, gate hardware, drain covers and bonding checked against current requirements.
A budget, not a verdict
You get a written report with what needs doing now, soon and later, each with a number.

Why home inspections miss pools
Pools are usually excluded
Most general home inspections note the pool exists and stop. The expensive questions go unanswered.
What we catch
A brittle liner, a scaled heater and a leaking return line are five figures the seller does not have to mention.
Annual checks too
Existing owners use us every autumn to catch equipment problems while parts are still available.

Inspection questions
Ask us an inspection question
How fast can you inspect before closing?
We prioritize real estate timelines and can usually be out within a few days with the report right after.
Can you inspect a closed pool?
Partially. We can assess equipment, deck and structure, but a covered winter pool limits liner and leak testing.
What does an inspection cost?
A flat fee that is a rounding error against what a bad pool costs. Leak detection is priced separately if needed.
Will you give me repair numbers?
Yes, real ranges. The point is a negotiating position and a budget, not a list of concerns.
Do you inspect above-ground pools?
We focus on inground pools and spas, which is where the costly surprises live.
