Pool Inspection in Westlake Hills, TX

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.

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.

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.

Yes. The Pool Police has established weekly routes through every corner of Westlake Hills, including Davenport Ranch, the Camp Craft Road corridor, and the older Eanes-area neighborhoods. We're on the street week after week and have been since 2000.

It depends on how deep the deterioration goes. Surface stains, calcium nodules, and minor etching can often be managed for years with careful chemistry and targeted acid washing. Structural delamination or widespread pitting is a different story — we'll give you an honest assessment rather than pushing a renovation. Westlake Hills plaster surfaces commonly last 20–25 years before a full replaster is really necessary.

Austin Water supply to the 78746 zip code typically delivers calcium hardness of 180–260 ppm and total alkalinity of 80–120 ppm. The alkalinity pushes pH upward constantly, so we add muriatic acid on most visits to keep pH in the 7.4–7.6 target range. Older plaster surfaces tolerate this well as long as we don't let pH spike above 7.8.
