Pool Inspections in Toronto: What to Expect
Across Toronto, swimming pools are a popular feature for both homes and businesses. An accessible swim space is a huge selling feature but if they are not properly maintained, it is easy for pools, spas and hot tubs to become big liabilities. If you are looking to purchase or sell a property, or are starting to notice issues with your water system, our Puddle Pros provide in-depth assessments for pools. Professional Toronto pool inspections provide insight into overall conditions, including surfaces, pool equipment, water systems and more.
Quick action is key to avoiding disaster. If you begin to notice problems with your existing pool system, it is always better to call an expert for professional pool inspection services. Calling Puddle at the first sign of trouble can help to reduce the risk of costly damage and the expensive repairs that go along with it.
The Benefits of Having An Expert Inspect Your Pool
The most common times for pool inspections are during the sale or purchase of a property with a swimming pool. When buying a home with a pool, you want to make sure that you are making a sound investment and when selling, you want to make sure that you will not be dealing with the fall-out of a faulty water system after sales are finalized.
It is common practice for home buyers to book a home inspector before a sale. This will provide peace of mind and give insight into overall property condition but a standard home inspection often does not include swimming pools. Swimming pool inspections should include the condition of pool water, basins, liners, internal components, safety issues and pool equipment.
Visual inspections of swim spaces help to identify brittle plastics, worn areas and small tears in liners. Being able to identify small issues before they become disasters can help to avoid wide-scale damage. Most pools come equipped with safety features like railings and ladders, as well as additional equipment like diving boards or slides. Ensuring that these are properly secured eliminates the health and safety risk associated with swimmers pulling one of these over on themselves.
Taking a look at water systems can be confusing without the appropriate technical knowledge. Puddle pool inspectors are able to test individuals components like heaters, pool pumps, return lines and more, ensuring that water is flowing smoothly. Inspection results can help to assess to needs of a swim space and help in determining when and how repairs should/could be done and whether or not it is an investment that you want to make.
Level I pool inspections do not come along with written repairs but offer insights into condition and can help to identify safety issues, prolong the lifespan of components and avoid unnecessary costly repairs and replacements.
Toronto Pool Inspections: Frequently Asked Questions
What are the pool fence rules in Toronto?
Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 447 requires a pool enclosure permit and a minimum enclosure height of 1.2 m for a pool on a single residential property (1.8 m for multiple residential or non residential property). Gates must be self closing and self latching. A hot tub is exempt if it has a structurally adequate cover that is locked when not in use, so confirm details with the City before building.
How do I drain a salt water pool in Toronto?
Salt water pool water may not go to Toronto storm sewers because of its high chloride levels. Under the Sewers Bylaw it must go to the property's sanitary connection, be absorbed on site or be hauled away by an approved hauler.
When should I get a pool inspection?
The most common times are when buying a home with a pool, when selling one and when something seems wrong with the pool or its equipment. A buyer learns what they are taking on, a seller can deal with issues before they become negotiating points and an owner can catch small problems before they turn into replacements.
Do I need a separate pool inspection if I already have a home inspection?
Usually yes. A general home inspection often covers a pool only briefly, if at all. A pool inspection looks specifically at the structure, the liner or surface, the equipment and the water system, which is where the expensive surprises tend to be.
What does a pool inspection check?
We inspect the safety features, carry out a visual inspection of the structure and liner or surface, check that the equipment works as it should and test the water system. You come away knowing the condition of what is there and what needs attention.
Kalana and team are the best always on time and diligent and take care of our opening maintenance and closing every year! Thank you Kalana
Kalana provided exceptional service while replacing my pool liner, demonstrating professionalism and expertise throughout the process. I highly recommend him for anyone needing pool liner replacement.
Great group very professional and knowledgeable. Always leave the pool sparkling clean and always remove any garbage. Would highly recommend Kalana and his team.
I had been searching for a reliable pool company to maintain our pool and indoor sauna for quite some time, as previous companies failed to meet our needs—some excelled in outdoor services while others focused on indoor work. Fortunately, a close friend recommended Puddle Pool Services. Kalana, the manager, is incredibly professional and clearly knows his craft. They maintain a high standard of cleanliness, and I've never seen any mess left after their work is completed. I highly recommend them!
Kalana and his team serviced our hot tub. They arrived on time and performed the work without delay. I will definitely be contacting them again.
These folks go above and beyond when it comes to anything in my back yard oasis. I cannot rave enough about the amazing services they provide as well as they do what they say which is not the norm these days. This is going to be my second season using this awesome company and tbh they are Toronto's best kept secret as to pool/hot tube services. Keep up the amazing work and thank you for always being there and telling it like it is whether it benefits you or not.....constantly exceeding expectations!
