Can you inspect a pool and spa in Glendale?

Yes, written up as its own part of the report. The median Glendale home dates to 1986 (ACS 2020-2024), so a backyard pool has usually been through more than one owner and more than one round of equipment. We document the shell, decking, barrier, gates and visible equipment as we find them.

Can you tell if the pool is leaking?

Not definitively. A visual inspection can flag evidence that suggests a leak, but confirming one takes dedicated leak-detection equipment and a specialist. If we see something, we will tell you what we saw and what it might mean.

Do you inspect the underground plumbing?

No. It is not visible and it is not accessible. We inspect the equipment pad and the visible runs.

Does the pool need to be running?

It helps a great deal. If the equipment is off or the pool has been drained, there is a limit to what can be assessed, and the report will say so.

Can I add this after booking?

Yes, as long as you tell us before inspection day so we can allow the time.

What should I expect from a home inspection on an older Glendale house?

Expect a condition report more than a defect hunt. The median Glendale home was built in 1986 (ACS 2020-2024). Inside the Glendale Townsite/Catlin Court Historic District the houses run older still, from a period of significance of 1892 to 1960 recorded when the district was listed on the National Register in 2007. That listing describes a neighbourhood as it stood in 2007 and says nothing about any individual house today. That gap is exactly what the inspection fills.

Pool & Spa Inspection for Glendale Properties

Glendale is a settled city rather than a growing one right now. It holds 93,736 housing units with a median build year of 1986 (ACS 2020-2024). In calendar 2025 it permitted 476 single-family units and no multifamily units at all (Census Bureau Building Permits Survey). It also holds the Glendale Townsite/Catlin Court Historic District, listed on the National Register in 2007. Its bungalows, period revival and ranch homes came out of the years between 1892 and 1960. Good Faith Inspection Co. inspects homes across Glendale and Maricopa County. Your color-coded report arrives within 24 hours.

Good Faith Inspection Co. inspects homes across Glendale with one goal: that you finish the inspection understanding the house rather than confused about it. We report what we find. We say plainly what we do not know. And we never soften a finding to keep a deal moving.

What Our Pool & Spa Inspection Includes

We look at the pump, filter and visible plumbing. The heater, where there is one. Timers and reachable electrical connections. The interior surface, tile and coping. The decking. The safety barrier and gate hardware. We report what we can see and run on the day. We do not pressure-test the underground plumbing, and we say plainly what a visual inspection can and cannot tell you.

Why Your Pool's Safety Barrier Matters

Pool barrier requirements exist for a reason and they are one of the few pool findings we will always call out clearly. A gate that does not self-latch, or a barrier with a climbable gap, goes in the report as a safety item regardless of how the pool itself is running.

Our Experience in Glendale

EPA drinking-water records list the City of Glendale as the public water system of record. It is a local-government surface-water system with about 63,000 service connections, serving roughly 234,766 people. That record covers drinking water only, and it does not prove any one address is connected to it. So we confirm what the meter and the fixtures at your property show.

The ground here is basin-fill aquifer in the Salt River Valley, inside the Arizona Department of Water Resources Phoenix Active Management Area (USGS, 2024). A 1999 USGS study of south-central Arizona tied land subsidence and earth fissures in the deep alluvial basins, the Phoenix metropolitan area among them, to groundwater overdraft. It recorded damage to buildings, roads, railroads, flood-control structures and sewer lines. That is a 1999 regional finding, and no source we work from maps a fissure inside Glendale's limits. On site we stick to what is visible: grading, roof drainage and any cracking we can photograph and describe. Working across Maricopa County means we know the questions a home in Glendale is likely to raise before we open the front door.
