Pool Inspection
A pool inspection should be part of your home inspection. It represents a significant portion of a home’s value.
When we do home inspections, we encourage the homeowner or homebuyer to have a pool inspection done at the same time. Pool repairs and replacement can be quite costly; it just makes sense to have the pool and pool equipment evaluated along with the house.
Of course, you can have your pool inspected at any time. You don’t have to do it as part of a home inspection. If your pool or pool equipment hasn’t been fully inspected in 2 years or more, it’s time to get it done.
