Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I really need a pool inspection when buying a home?

Absolutely. A general home inspector checks that the pool holds water and the pump turns on, but they rarely evaluate equipment age, plumbing condition, or surface life remaining. Pool repairs can easily run into five figures — a dedicated inspection helps you negotiate or budget before closing.

What does the inspection report include?

Our report covers the pool shell condition, surface and tile assessment, all equipment with estimated remaining lifespan, plumbing and electrical review, safety compliance, decking condition, and a prioritized list of recommended repairs with approximate cost ranges.

How long does a pool inspection take?

A thorough inspection typically takes 60 to 90 minutes on site. We deliver the written report with photos within 24 hours. For urgent real estate transactions, same-day reports are available on request.

My River Place pool fills with leaves constantly — can you keep up?

Yes. River Place's canyon setting and dense tree cover create one of the heaviest debris loads in the Austin area. Our weekly service includes thorough skimming and leaf removal, and we recommend keeping a leaf net on the pool between visits during fall and cedar season. We also monitor phosphate levels closely since decaying organic matter is a primary algae food source.

Can you access pool equipment on steep lots?

We're used to it. Many River Place equipment pads are on hillside retaining walls or tucked behind decking. Our techs carry tools in rather than rolling carts and are experienced working in these constrained spaces.
