Pool equipment and structural repairs can be surprisingly costly. An inspection tells you the true condition of the pump, surfaces, and safety features before you take ownership — so there are no expensive surprises after closing.
A pool and spa inspection evaluates the visible and accessible equipment, structure, and safety features of a residential pool or spa, and reports on its overall condition. It's the kind of specialized look a standard home inspection doesn't fully provide.
A pool can look inviting while its equipment is near the end of its life or its surface is due for a costly resurface. Understanding the real condition — and the safety features — before you buy helps you know exactly what you're taking on.

A pool and spa inspection looks at the equipment, the structure, and the safety features that matter most.
The pump, filter, heater, and controls — the systems that keep the pool running.
The pool or spa shell, surface, coping, and surrounding deck.
Visible plumbing, returns, skimmers, and fittings for the pool and spa.
Barriers, gates, and safety equipment that protect against accidents.
Pools are wonderful — until an unexpected repair hits. Resurfacing, equipment replacement, and leak repairs can run into the thousands, and much of a pool's condition isn't obvious to an untrained eye.
A pool can look great on the surface while the pump is failing, the plaster is near replacement, or the safety barriers don't meet expectations. An inspection separates cosmetic from costly, so you know what you're getting.
Whether you're buying a home with a pool or just want peace of mind about the one you have, an inspection gives you a clear picture of the equipment, structure, and safety before you commit.

A pool and spa inspection evaluates the visible and accessible equipment (pump, filter, heater, controls), the structure and surface of the pool or spa, the visible plumbing and fittings, and the safety features — and reports on the overall condition.
A standard home inspection focuses on the house and doesn't fully evaluate a pool or spa. Because pool repairs can be so expensive, a dedicated inspection is the best way to understand what you're taking on before you buy.
Yes. Attached or standalone spas are inspected right along with the pool — equipment, structure, plumbing, and safety features included.
An inspection identifies visible signs of leaks and conditions that can lead to them, and reports on the condition of the equipment and structure. A specialized leak-detection test may be recommended if signs point to a hidden leak.
