    Pool Inspections in Whistler: What to Expect

    Every year potential home buyers in Whistler browse MLS sites and set their filters to “has pool and spa”. Having a pool or hot tub is a major selling feature for potential buyers but only if they are in good working order. There is nothing worse than signing on the dotted line, finalizing your sale and then finding out that you are dealing with pool leaks, structural damage or broken pool equipment. Puddle technicians offer Whistler pool inspection services for potential buyers, current owners and sellers for a better view of condition. 

    When buying a property it is common practice to schedule a home inspection. The average home inspector can give detailed accounts about structures, roofing, even plumbing and electrical but not many of them have experience with swimming pools. A quick overview of pool surfaces might be able to point out obvious damage like slab cracks but this won’t do much for small issues that will become bigger over time or issues with water systems. Instead, trust a local pool inspector who specializes in top-to-bottom assessments of both residential and commercial pools.

    Level 1 Pool Inspections: What to Expect From the Experts 

    Swimming pools might seem simple from the outside but nothing could be further from the truth! For as much as you can see, there are many more moving parts just out of sight — but Puddle technicians know what to look for! When you have an expert inspect your pool, it is broken down into multiple steps for the most thorough report possible. 

    Visual Inspections: Pools will show signs of stress but this is only useful if you know what to look for. A trained eye can spot large issues like broken tiles or cracked concrete but they can also look out for smaller issues like tears in vinyl liners that will grow over time.

    System Testing: Because swimming pools are made up of so many moving parts, we highly recommend testing the internal components that keep pool water moving. This means testing heaters, checking pressure gauges and return lines and running the pool pump. 

    Assessments of Surrounding Areas: Visual inspections will take stock of pool condition but also surrounding areas. In the event that there are signs of leaks in nearby areas, technicians will organize pool leak detection services and offer referrals to repair experts in your area. Puddle technicians will also assess safety features and accessories for peace of mind. This includes light testing of safety rails, ladders, diving boards and slides. 

    It is important to note that Level 1 pool inspections are designed to provide insight and peace of mind to potential buyers, sellers or homeowners who suspect there is something wrong with their swim space. These inspections do not come with a written report and can’t be used for permitting or insurance purposes. Call Puddle Pool Services today to learn more or book your appointment. 

    Whistler Pool Inspections: Frequently Asked Questions

    Do I need a permit for a pool in Whistler?

    In-ground pools always require a building permit from the Resort Municipality of Whistler, and a development permit may also be needed. The RMOW says all pools must meet fencing and gate requirements under the BC Building Code. Contact the RMOW Building Department to confirm what applies to your property.

    What affects the cost of a pool inspection?

    The size and type of pool, whether a spa or hot tub is included and the equipment on site all affect the price. Ask for a quote for your property and we will tell you exactly what is included. (Where the local franchise publishes inspection pricing, the local version of this answer quotes it exactly.)

    Will an inspection find leaks?

    An inspection includes checks for signs of leaks, such as water loss, wet areas and equipment issues. If a leak is suspected, dedicated leak detection testing confirms it and pinpoints the source.

    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.
