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.

Do you specialize in luxury pools with vanishing edges and premium finishes?

Yes. Rough Hollow and the broader Lake Travis luxury market is where we've built the most experience with vanishing-edge catch basins, integrated spa circulation, PebbleTec and glass tile care, and multi-zone automation systems. These pools require meaningfully different cleaning techniques than a standard plaster rectangle, and our weekly service protocol accounts for every difference.

What's the calcium hardness in Rough Hollow well water?

Rough Hollow well-water properties commonly test calcium hardness in the 450–600+ ppm range, among the highest in the Austin metro. Without active management, that calcium precipitates as white scale on tile, inside heaters, on salt cells, and on vanishing-edge weirs. Our weekly service uses sequestrant chemistry and precise pH control to keep calcium in solution rather than letting it deposit.

Can you work around elevated decks and cliff-side equipment pads?

Yes. Many Rough Hollow pools sit on steep hillside or cliffside lots with equipment tucked into tight elevated pads. Our techs carry tools in rather than rolling carts and are used to working in these constrained spaces. We'll coordinate access with you and any gate systems before starting service.
