Pool and spa inspection
Pools are expensive to repair and carry real safety risks. Have the equipment and safety features checked before the pool becomes yours.
What I inspect
Equipment
Pumps, motors, filters, valves and heating systems are inspected and run through basic operation. I look for leaks in exposed plumbing and for electrical and heating defects.
Safety
Visible electrical components, bonding, steps, ladders and other ways in and out of the water.
The surrounding area
Barriers, fencing, gates, coping and decking, with specific recommendations where safety can be improved.
What is not included
- Operating equipment when weather or other conditions could damage it
- Testing automatic safety controls or automatic valves
- Entering the water or testing water chemistry
- Testing electric resistance heaters
- Judging the structural integrity of the shell
- Equipment that is shut down or doesn't respond to normal controls
Pool and spa inspection can be added to any package.
Common questions
Can you inspect a pool that has been winterized?
Only visually. Equipment that is shut down can't be operated, and the report will say which parts were not tested.
Is a pool inspection included in a home inspection?
No. It is an add-on that you can combine with any package.
