Swimming Pools and Pool Safety Inspections

The inspection of swimming pools and swimming pool safety fencing does not form part of a Pre-Purchase Building Inspection however at BuildandPest.com we do an overview of swimming pools and associated structures. Recommendation for further investigation would be noted in the report if evidence of considerable movement or cracking was observed. Unusual wet areas around a pool would also be reported on as would erosion and excessively cracked and settled paving. Pool fencing that is in poor condition, is easily climbable or has large gaps that would allow children to enter the pool area would be reported on.
