Most inspections take 60-90 minutes depending on pool size, equipment complexity, and the number of features being evaluated.

A pool inspection is crucial before closing on any home with a pool. Many home inspectors aren't pool specialists and may miss critical issues with equipment, plumbing, or structural integrity. Our inspection reveals hidden problems that could cost thousands in unexpected repairs—giving you negotiating power to ask the seller to make repairs, reduce the price, or provide a credit at closing. In some cases, the findings may give you the option to walk away from a bad deal altogether. It's a small investment that protects you from inheriting someone else's expensive problems.
Yes! If our inspection uncovers issues that need repair, we can provide full-service pool equipment repair for anything we identify—from pump and filter replacement to heater repairs and plumbing fixes. However, there's never any pressure or obligation to use our repair services. We provide honest, unbiased findings regardless of whether you hire us for follow-up work. Many clients choose to get multiple quotes for repairs, and we fully support that approach.
