Transaction-timeline pool and spa inspections for buyers, sellers, realtors and home inspectors. Written findings, delivered inside the inspection period.
A pool is frequently the most expensive single component of a property that nobody inspects properly. General home inspectors are explicit that pools fall outside a standard inspection scope, which is correct and also leaves a gap at exactly the moment a buyer is committing to the purchase.
An underground plumbing leak found after closing is the buyer's problem. Found during the inspection period, it is a negotiation. That timing difference is the entire value of a pool inspection.
During the inspection period, with findings documented in time to matter to the negotiation.
For sellers who would rather know before a buyer's inspector does.
Equipment condition alongside the shell and plumbing, not the shell alone.
Condo and HOA pool condition documented for board and reserve planning.
Recheck after repairs, before closing, to confirm the work held.
Documentation a buyer, seller, agent or board can act on directly.
Inspection periods are short and they do not move. Scheduling for real estate inspections is handled with that constraint as the priority, and the written report is delivered in time to be useful rather than in time to be filed. When an agent or a buyer's home inspector needs the findings explained, that conversation happens directly.
The inspection reports what is there. Leak and Subsurface Locators is licensed to perform repairs, and an inspection is not a mechanism for generating repair work. A finding is only reported when it can be shown, with evidence, in the report.

Inspection-period scheduling. Written report. Certified Pool Inspector, licensed CPC1457277.
No. Leak detection answers where a known loss is coming from. An inspection documents the overall condition of the shell, fittings, equipment and plumbing for someone making a buying, selling or budgeting decision, and establishes whether loss is occurring at all.
Yes, and that timeline is treated as the priority when scheduling. Call as early in the period as possible so the report arrives while it can still affect the negotiation.
Yes. Findings can be explained directly to an agent, a buyer's home inspector, or a board, without requiring the client to relay technical detail secondhand.
It is often worth it. A leak discovered by the buyer's inspector becomes a negotiation against the seller. The same leak found before listing is a decision the seller controls.
