The short answers

Pool inspection in Highland Village, answered.

How much is a pool inspection in Highland Village?

A standard residential pool is $299. A larger pool, or one with a complex equipment set, is $399. Leak detection and equipment-specific diagnostics can be added and are quoted when you book.

How soon can you inspect a pool in Highland Village?

We usually have a time within 3–5 business days. The visit takes 1.5 to 2.5 hours, and the written report arrives by email within 48 hours. If you are buying, tell us your option-period deadline when you book.

What does a pool inspection in Highland Village cover?

Five systems: the equipment, the plumbing and electrical that can be seen, the safety features, the water, and the surface and structure. Each gets its own section of a written report, with photographs and a repair estimate for anything found.

Does a home inspection in Highland Village cover the pool?

Not automatically. In Texas a swimming pool is an optional system under the Real Estate Commission’s standards: a home inspector is not required to inspect it, and one who does is not required to open equipment or operate valves. A pool inspection is done by a pool technician, covers all five systems, and puts a repair estimate beside each issue.

  • Plumbing and electricalGood
  • SafetyRepair recommended
  • WaterGood

    Past its service date. Should be replaced before the pool is used.

    Repair estimate included

  • Plaster at the steps

Photographs of every piece of equipment and every finding
A sample of the written inspection report: a summary by system, then each finding with its photograph, its condition in plain words and whether a repair estimate is included.

What you leave with

A report you can put on the table.

An opinion is easy to argue with. A photograph of a worn motor, with what it costs to replace, is not. That is what the report is for.

  • Every finding photographed

    Colour photographs of each piece of equipment and of anything we found, so nobody has to take our word for it.

  • Written in plain words

    What it is, what condition it is in, and how long it is likely to last. No jargon to decode.

  • A repair estimate for each issue

    A ballpark cost beside every finding, so you know what it means in dollars before you sign anything.

  • A walk-through with the technician

    Follow along on the day and ask anything. You get a spoken summary before we leave.
