Question 1

Do I need a pool inspection when buying a home in Austin?

Accepted Answer

Highly recommended. A standard home inspection rarely covers pool equipment in depth. Our inspection catches failing pumps, cracked plumbing, heater issues, and structural problems that could cost thousands after closing.

Question 2

What's included in a pool inspection report?

Accepted Answer

We inspect all equipment (pump, filter, heater, salt system, automation), test water chemistry, check coping, tile, plaster, and deck condition, and deliver a photo-documented written report within 24 hours with prioritized repair estimates.

Question 3

How much does a pool inspection cost in Austin?

Accepted Answer

Our pool inspections start at $225 for most residential pools in Greater Austin. Larger pools, spas, or properties with extensive equipment may be slightly higher, and we'll confirm before scheduling.

Question 4

How long does a pool inspection take?

Accepted Answer

Plan for 60–90 minutes on site. We need access to the equipment pad, pool deck, and any automation panels. The written report is delivered within 24 hours.

Question 5

Can you inspect a pool before I make an offer?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Realtors and buyers call us for pre-offer inspections all the time. We can often schedule within a few days so you have the report before your option period ends.
