Question 1

What do you check during a pool & spa inspection?

Accepted Answer

We evaluate safety features (fencing, gates, bonding/grounding, drain covers), equipment (pumps, filters, heaters, lights, controls), and visible structure (plaster, coping, decking, skimmers).

Question 2

Do you inspect both in-ground and above-ground pools?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We inspect both, including attached spas and basic automation systems.

Question 3

Can new pools still have problems?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Even brand-new pools can have wiring issues, leaks, improper bonding, or mis-installed equipment.

Question 4

Do you test the water chemistry?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We collect a water sample during the inspection and drop it at a local pool supply store for professional analysis. We include a summary of the results in your report. (Note: this is a screening—ongoing chemistry management is the owner’s responsibility.)

Question 5

Most inspections take 45–75 minutes and can be scheduled alongside your home inspection.
