Why do I need a separate pool inspection when buying a home?
General home inspectors often do not have the specialized knowledge required to evaluate complex pool equipment and structural integrity. Hiring a dedicated pool professional ensures no costly deficiencies are overlooked.
What does a realtor pool inspection include?
Our comprehensive pool inspections include a detailed visual evaluation of the pool’s interior surface, decking, coping, and the entire equipment pad, including pumps, filters, and heaters.
How long does a typical real estate pool inspection take?
A thorough evaluation usually takes between one and two hours, depending on the size of the pool, the complexity of the equipment, and whether a spa is included.
Will I receive a written report after the inspection?
Yes, you will receive a highly detailed presentation and document outlining our findings. Many of our clients use this report to help them determine their next steps when buying a home.
Do you inspect the spa during a home purchase as well?
Yes, we offer complete realtor spa inspections to evaluate the functionality of the jets, blowers, heating elements, and controls alongside the main pool.
Do you evaluate newly constructed pools?
Yes, we conduct new pool inspections to ensure your pool builder delivered exactly what was promised and that all equipment functions optimally before your warranty expires.
I already own my home; can I still get a pool inspection?
Absolutely. Whether you simply want peace of mind or have concerns about aging equipment, a professional evaluation is a great way to understand the current health of your backyard investment.
Do you teach new homeowners how to operate their pool?
Yes! Beyond the inspection itself, we take time to help you get acquainted with your system. Our goal is to make sure you understand the basics of daily operation and general upkeep.
Will an inspection help me save money in the long run?
Yes. Catching failing equipment, malfunctioning heaters, or structural issues early can save you thousands of dollars in the future.
What specific spa components do you evaluate?
During a spa inspection, we meticulously check the heaters, air blowers, jet functionality, filtration systems, and the structural integrity of the spa shell.
Do you check the pool automation systems?
Yes, we review all control panels, timers, and smart features to ensure the automation systems are communicating correctly with your pumps and heaters.
How do you assess the condition of the pool surface?
We perform a thorough visual check of the plaster, pebble, or fiberglass surface to look for signs of cracking, extreme scaling, or delamination that could compromise the pool structure.
