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.

I recently used Dedant pest and building inspection service and was very impressed with the overall experience. The inspection was thorough, professional, and detailed, and they took the time to explain their findings clearly. The report was comprehensive and easy to understand, which gave me much better confidence in making my property purchase decision. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and professional pest and building inspection service.

I've used Dedant twice and both times they provided a comprehensive building and pest report that was easy for me to understand. Price was competitive and turnaround from the time I provided my details online to the actual inspection the first time was less than 24hrs, and the second time I used them I provided my details on Friday afternoon and the inspection was two work days later. Dedant corresponded directly with the real estate agent to organise so I didn't have to do anything in regards to communicate between parties. If memory serves me correctly I received the report about 2.5hs or so after the actual insection. Overall I'm happy with the service provided.

Steve performed a pre settlement inspection for our son who is buying his 1st property. Steve did an excellent, very thorough job. He was also more than happy to chat with us after the inspection to answer any queries we had. Brilliant job.

We had a building and pest inspection from Dedant and were very impressed from start to finish. I called to get a quote and was provided all required information include an email with a booking link. I requested a booking Saturday for a Wednesday (very short notice) given Monday was the Logan public holiday. I got the booking email confirmed on Monday and it had an easy platform to send and receive messages to the company without having to call. The technician arrived promptly and we left him to do what he needed, he was extremely thorough and was at the property for just over 2 hours. He was knowledgeable about every issue and all questions we asked, talked us through the exact process required for termite barriers and provided all measurements to get us a quote. The quote and report was in depth and received very promptly. We would not hesitate to use this company again and will absolutely use them to do the termite barriers when we move in.

Very happy with the service as a whole and was super easy to book. Building and pest inspection was in great detail and noticed things I wouldn't even think to look at. The 70+ page report came back the same day (~6hrs after). Stephen was great to deal with and was happy to answer any follow up questions and concerns I had.

We used dedant to inspect this property when we bought it and they helped us get a bunch of things repaired before we moved in which saved us a huge pile of money. And we just used them for a presale inspection to now sell our home. They have been professional, very helpful. Fast to communicate and really gone above and beyond to be really helpful in dealing with on both occasions and I will definitely be using them in the future. Very grateful for their hard work for us.

I went with Dedant this year in March. Highly recommend Steve who did such a thorough job and guided my wife and I. We are new into the house market so there were many things we didn’t know and Steve supported us through it all. Fantastic admin team who are easy to talk through and organize everything.

As first home buyers, we didn't really know how or what to expect. However Sam went above and beyond with our new build and did a very thorough job on our house, giving us plenty of clarity and answering our questions as needed. Sam even gave us some tips and tricks which was greatly appreciated. Overall, awesome job & will definitely use again
