Pool Inspection Services
Comprehensive pool inspections for buyers, sellers, and homeowners who want peace of mind.
Why Pool Inspections Matter
A pool is a significant investment and a complex system with many components that can fail or need maintenance. Whether you are buying a home with a pool, selling your home, or just want to know the true condition of your pool, a professional inspection gives you the facts. Pool problems are not always obvious to the untrained eye. What looks like a working pool might have hidden leaks, failing equipment, or structural issues that will cost thousands to fix.
We perform detailed inspections that evaluate every aspect of your pool system. You get a complete written report that clearly explains what we found, what needs attention, and estimated costs for any repairs or replacements. This information helps you make informed decisions and avoid expensive surprises.
What We Inspect
Our pool inspections are thorough and systematic. We check everything that matters:
- •Pool Structure: Shell condition, cracks, tile and coping integrity, deck condition
- •Equipment: Pump operation, filter condition, heater function, automation systems
- •Plumbing: Visible leaks, pressure testing, skimmers, returns, drains
- •Water Chemistry: Complete testing and balance assessment
- •Safety Features: Fence condition, gate latches, drain covers, electrical grounding
- •Electrical: GFCI protection, bonding, control panels, lighting
- •Cleaning Systems: Automatic cleaners, booster pumps, suction lines
- •Additional Features: Spa jets, waterfalls, slides, diving boards, covers
We document everything with photos and detailed notes. Your inspection report clearly identifies items that need immediate attention, things that will need service soon, and general condition observations. We explain technical findings in plain English so you understand exactly what everything means.
Buyer Inspections
If you are buying a home in Turlock with a pool, get it inspected before you close. Home inspectors often lack the specialized knowledge to properly evaluate pools. We have seen buyers discover major pool problems after purchase that cost tens of thousands to fix. Our pre-purchase inspections give you negotiating power and prevent buyer remorse.
Common issues we find during buyer inspections include hidden leaks, equipment at the end of its life, code violations, and deferred maintenance that requires significant investment. Knowing about these problems upfront lets you negotiate repair credits, ask the seller to fix issues before closing, or adjust your offer price. Sometimes we find problems serious enough that buyers walk away from deals, saving them from buying someone else's expensive problem.
Seller and Homeowner Inspections
If you are selling your Turlock home, getting a pre-listing pool inspection helps you avoid surprises during buyer inspections. You can address problems before listing or price the home appropriately. This speeds up transactions and prevents deals from falling apart over pool issues discovered late in the process.
Current homeowners also benefit from inspections. If you just bought a home and inherited a pool you know nothing about, an inspection educates you on what you own and what it needs. If you have owned your pool for years but never had professional evaluation, an inspection identifies maintenance you might be neglecting and potential problems before they become emergencies.
After your inspection, we can help with any needed repairs or maintenance. Many inspection clients transition to our weekly pool cleaning service to keep their pool in top condition going forward.
