Pre-Purchase Swimming Pool Inspection

What is a Pre-purchase swimming pool inspection?

Service area Logan | Redlands | Ipswich | Brisbane

If you are purchasing a home with a swimming pool, a pre-purchase inspection of the swimming pool can save you from surprises later.

A pre-purchase pool inspection can save you headaches by identifying any major issues with the structure or equipment.  This is a visual inspection of the pool surface to ascertain the condition, the pool coping (the edging that surrounds the pool) the pool equipment and water balance.

Swimming pools can have a range of finishes / surfaces that wear at different rates.  Just like your home, the pool surface might need renovating or maintenance over time.

When a house with a pool is bought or sold in Queensland, there are legal obligations.  QBCC is the governing body on this, and provide information on this topic here.

Dedant can help with this.

Dedant Building and Pest Inspections can generally organise a swimming pool inspection with a swimming pool expert at the same time as the house inspection to save time.  You are welcome to attend and discuss the findings with the inspector.

What people say about Dedant

Very happy with the service and was better value than all the competitors that I quoted. Thanks ! Will definitely use again next time I’m purchasing a property :-).
I was very happy with the timeliness and thoroughness of the inspection. These things need to happen quickly if you want to secure that property, from this experience I'd say you'll have no worries with Dedant.
I had a really positive experience with Dedant. Our building and pest inspector was super thorough, took his time and was very detailed. He was also very nice and took 30 minutes to explain his findings and his opinions on the property. I would 100% recommend Dedant
We are very satisfied with Steve from Dedant who completed a pre-purchase building and pest inspection for us. He was very thorough and even gave us a cursory call to run through his findings. We received the report on the day too. Overall the team was very professional and efficient highly recommend their services.
Good price, quality service. The gentleman who came to inspect was very professional. He gave us a briefing as soon as he finished the job and an hour later I had the report with color photos. Thank you, team.
Very easy to deal with. Organised my inspection within 24 hours at short notice - much appreciated!
We contacted Dedant to do a pre-purchase building and pest inspection for us and with a tight timeframe they were able to schedule us in for the very next day. Stephen did our inspection and he was very friendly, extremely thorough & took the time after to explain any findings/recommendations to us and answer any questions we had. The entire process from start to finish was seamless and they really offer such a competitive price given the outstanding level of service you get. I would not hesitate to book them again and will recommend them to my friends who are looking to purchase in the future. Thanks so much Stephen & the Dedant team!
I went to this company solely on the google reviews and that proved to be the best decision. The company gets 5 stars from me for the 3Ps (price, professionalism, and punctuality). The inspector was an experienced and expert one who did a fantastic job. The communication post inspection was exceptional too. Overall, they've gained one more loyal customer.
An excellent job of building and pest inspection. I highly recommend their services!
A quality service, quick availability and fair pricing. The report was very detailed and clear. Very happy with Dedants service!
Nice professional. Report was available same day. Was well formatted and very detailed. Price was very reasonable for 2 PCI. Easy communication.
I booked Dedant to complete a practical completion inspection on an interstate investment property which I couldn't inspect myself. Blown away by the thoroughness of the inspection and attention to detail- They did a better job than what I could have done! Would highly recommend Sam who completed it and was available to answer any questions I had after reading the report.
Dedant made the process simple from start to finish. They were really helpful when I booked over the phone, and the inspection report was very detailed, pointing out some minor issues in our new build. Great service, I highly recommend!!!
Dedant were professional, thorough and did a great job at making us feel confident in our B+P inspection knowing that any major issues were going to be identified. Can't recommend them enough!
Had great experience dealing with Dedant team. It was very easy to make the bookings and the team communicated on timely manner from start to the end. The building inspector was very friendly and explained everything in layman terms during the inspection and reassurance provided. The report was very clear and concise with all the details. I highly recommend Dedant Building and Pest Inspection.
Very fast with booking and best price around, very thorough inspections. I could not make the inspection but was emailed the report with lots of pictures showing everything in detail which made getting ready to move in easy with knowing exactly what I needed to buy/fix
Very thorough inspection of our new property giving us peace of mind with our big move. Thank you!
Rick from Dedant was very professional and thorough and got the report back to us in a very timely manner. Dedant were great to communicate with in the lead up and were very affordable. Would highly recommend!
Booked in with Dedant for a Building and pest inspection on my new property towards the end of last week, despite the short notice they managed to get the inspection done on Monday by lunch time.

Rick who inspected my property was very professional with a down to earth personality who was eager to get the job done very efficiently, thanks to Rick’s extensive knowledge in the industry I was made aware of few concerns he’d found at my property.

I was impressed with how quickly the report was sent through to me after the inspection, thanks guys.

Would definitely recommend these guys any day…
Punctual, thorough, professional, informative. Dedant were a pleasure to deal with, and detected much more than a different company who provided the first report for the sellers. I highly recommend.
Stephen did our inspection to purchase, he was very thorough and did an excellent job on feedback and the report. Would highly recommend him.
Repeat customer here! Thank you for always providing an excellent report and customer service. Much appreciated.
Very thorough building and pest assessment, highly recommend and well worth the money spent to get a comprehensive report of the property
Would highly recommend Dedant Building & Pest Control. An appointment was made very promptly by the receptionist who was very pleasant and informative. We also attended the inspection of the home that we were going to purchase. The inspector took his time, throughly went over every detail of the home. We asked a number of questions that were answered to put our mind at ease. And to our surprise we had the full report & photos of the home later that evening. Also an email was sent asking us if we were happy with the report and if we had any questions or needed anything explained they would be happy to speak to us. Well done Dedant 10/10
I had a great experience using Dedant for my pre-purchase building and pest inspection. Stephen was timely, thorough, and friendly. I have no complaints, the price was clear and reasonable, and I would use them again!
They did thorough and professional assessment of the property. They were easy to deal with. Report was provided in a timely manner. The inspector Greg was very helpful.
The team helped me with the Pest Inspection.
Seamless and easy to deal with.
I couldn't be happier with the service I received from Dedant Building & Pest. I used them for the first time a year ago when purchasing my first home, and they had inspected my property and sent me the review within 28 hours of initially calling them. It really made the process less stressful for me.
Last week I was fortunate enough to purchase my second home, and I used Dedant again. And once again, they completed the job the next day, and I had the completed inspection review by the day's end.
I greatly look forward to using Dedant Building & Pest again. I couldn't recommend more!
Dedant was great! Donna in the office was super helpful and they carried out the inspection in record time. The report was thorough and was sent over within 24 hours. I will use them for all of my properties moving forward.
Thank you to Dedant for the great pest and building inspection service. The inspector was professional, careful, and friendly. The report was detailed and very helpful. I’m very happy with the service and would definitely recommend Dedant to others.
Excellent service, prompt replies and sending through detailed inspection report.
What a brilliant company. I would recommend Dedant Building & Pest anytime, a hundred times over. Professional, informative, prompt and reliable . Simply the BEST , thank you Dedant TEAM.
The team at Dedant were great to deal with. The booking process was easy, our inspector was professional and very thorough, clearly well experienced in the building trade. Very happy with their service.
Absolutely amazing service. The inspector was on time and made thorough check on the property. Received the report few hours later with detailed explanation.
Thank you so much. I ‘ll definitely recommend.
Second time using Dedant, great service and friendly team.
I can't fault the service we received from Dedant. I needed a pest and building within 7 days to satisfy the conditions for buying a property, Dedant was available for the very next day. On the day of service, again we can't fault the service, our inspector was thorough and ran us through everything that was found on the property AND we received the report same day. I would 100% recommend this company and use them again!
We had a fantastic experience with Dedant Building and Pest Brisbane. Booking was quick and easy, the pricing was fair, and the service was reliable. After making an offer on a property, we called to schedule an inspection and secured a booking within just two days.

The inspection itself was thorough yet efficient. Our inspector, Rick, was not only knowledgeable but also very friendly and professional. He arrived early, allowing us to start ahead of schedule, which was a great bonus. Rick also reassured us by letting us know we could contact him with any questions about the report—a gesture we really appreciated.

The report was completed promptly, arriving just a few hours after the inspection. We were extremely impressed with the entire process and would definitely recommend Dedant Building and Pest Brisbane to others. We would be happy to use their services again in the future!
I had great experience with them, the guy was super detailed with the inspection and gave me all the information as the buyer, the team were great when I had further questions about the report. Would highly recommend them
Definitely recommend, the team booked us in so quickly and then we got the report same day as inspection.
Rick was amazing!
He was very thorough with his inspection and explained everything to us and even gave advice on extra questions we had. 10/10 service ❤️
As a first time home buyer, Dedant was the most excellent choice we could have hoped for in relation to our building and pest inspection needs. From the beginning they were swift in booking us in straight away and Rick was very knowledgeable and friendly. We received our report the same day as the inspection and we couldn't have been more happier with the service provided. Thank you Rick!
Very nice, accommodating, professional and thorough building a pest inspection. Thank you
Excellent service from Ded Ant. Rick, our inspector, was extremely meticulous and experienced. He conducted a thorough inspection, explained his findings clearly, and provided valuable insights. I highly recommend this professional and reliable company to anyone needing a detailed building and pest inspection!
I came across Dedant from a google search and I was not disappointed. Rick was very thorough with his work, very approachable and friendly and took the time to explain his findings during a follow-up call. He was patient with explaining details that are unfamiliar and did so with patience and easy to understand terms. 10/10 all round!
