What’s Included with Our Comprehensive Pool Inspection Service

Whether you’re a homeowner, prospective buyer, or landlord, our pool inspection service gives you actionable information about visible conditions and operating systems. Our team evaluates the following areas during an inspection:

• Pool shell, deck and coping: We look for visible cracks, leaks, wear, and surface issues affecting the pool shell, decking, coping, and finish.
• Pool equipment: Pumps, filters, heaters, valves, lights, timers, and control systems are reviewed for condition and operation.
• Plumbing and circulation: We inspect visible piping, drains, skimmers, and returns for leaks, damage, or blockages that restrict water flow.
• Water chemistry: We review water clarity, sanitizer levels, and the pool’s overall chemical balance.
• Safety features: We assess visible drain covers, barriers, gates, handrails, and other installed safety equipment.

Each inspection is adapted to your goals, whether you’re preparing a home for sale, maintaining a rental property, planning a pool renovation, or checking the pool before its seasonal opening. The findings identify pool repair needs, maintenance issues, and safety-related concerns that deserve attention. Unusual water loss, equipment malfunctions, corrosion, and worn pool surfaces are documented when visible during the inspection.

Electrical Safety Around Pool Equipment

Grounding, electrical bonding, and ground-fault circuit interrupter protection are important considerations around pools. Grounding connects electrical equipment to the earth, while bonding brings metal pool equipment and structural components to the same electrical potential. Ground-fault circuit interrupter protection, commonly called GFCI protection, shuts off power when it detects an electrical current imbalance.

Pool wiring and electrical components are governed by NFPA 70, the National Electrical Code. Because electrical evaluation requires appropriate qualifications, concerns involving wiring, grounding, bonding, or GFCI protection should be reviewed by a qualified electrical professional.

Drain Covers for Pools, Spas & Hot Tubs

Drain covers are important safety features at suction outlets in pools and spas. Federal safety requirements for pools and spas call for compliant covers designed for the outlets where they’re installed. A loose, damaged, missing, or incompatible cover warrants attention from a qualified service provider.

If your property includes an attached spa or hot tub, ask whether it’s included when scheduling your pool inspection. Confirming the scope in advance helps ensure the water features you need evaluated are addressed during the visit.

Pool Inspections for Property Transfers

A general home inspection might not include a swimming pool. A dedicated pool inspection is a separate, non-invasive visual examination focused on the pool shell, accessible equipment, visible plumbing, water condition, and installed safety features.

Our digital inspection reports are designed for buyers, sellers, agents, and home inspectors who need clear documentation for property transfers. Montgomery doesn’t require a pool inspection for every home sale, but mortgage lenders and insurance companies frequently request one. Check the specific documentation requirements with your lender, insurer, homeowners association, or real estate professional.

Residential Pool Barriers & Gates in Montgomery

The City of Montgomery regulates pool and spa construction, alteration, and maintenance through its adopted International Pool and Spa Code. Residential pool barriers must be at least 48 inches high. Gates must be self-closing, self-latching, and designed to swing away from the pool.

An inspection can document the visible condition of barriers, gates, and latches, but it isn’t a formal code certification. If an inspection identifies a concern, we explain the finding and recommend an appropriate next step.

Our Pool Inspection Process: What to Expect

Our process is straightforward and thorough. Here’s what to expect from scheduling through report delivery:

1. Booking & Prep: Contact us to schedule an inspection when it works best for you. We’ll confirm the details and outline any simple pre-visit steps, such as making equipment accessible or ensuring water levels are adequate.
2. On-Site Assessment: Our uniformed technician arrives on time, explains the inspection steps, and answers your initial questions. The visit length depends on the pool’s size and features.
3. Digital Report Delivery: After completion, you receive a same-day digital report with our findings, supporting photos, and clear recommendations. The report provides useful documentation for conversations involving a real estate transaction, insurer, or homeowners association.
4. Personal Walkthrough: We review the results with you, answer your questions, and offer practical guidance on repairs, upgrades, or next steps.

Each step is documented with photos and practical notes. If you’re a first-time pool owner, landlord, or handling a remote property purchase in Montgomery, this transparency makes informed decisions easier. You’ll understand the pool’s visible condition, the items that deserve attention, and the recommendations in your report.
