Can you inspect the pool and spa with the house in Phoenix?

Yes, as its own section of the report. A Phoenix pool often sits behind a house built around 1985 (ACS 2020-2024 median). A pool keeps its own history, though. We report the shell, decking, barrier, gates and visible equipment on what we find at the pad, not on the year the house went up.

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 does a home inspection in Phoenix usually cover?

The whole house, tuned to its age. The median Phoenix home was built in 1985 (ACS 2020-2024). Roof covering, drain lines and the oldest mechanical equipment get close attention on most jobs. You get one list that separates what to budget for from what is routine, and you are welcome to walk it with us.

Pool & Spa Inspection for Phoenix Properties

Phoenix is the Maricopa County seat and Arizona's capital, and it is building in two directions at once. In calendar 2025 the city permitted 3,154 single-family units and 6,694 units in buildings of five or more (Census Bureau Building Permits Survey). The homes already standing are older than that mix suggests. The median build year is 1985 (ACS 2020-2024). Good Faith Inspection Co. inspects homes across Phoenix and Maricopa County. Your color-coded report arrives within 24 hours.

Good Faith Inspection Co. inspects homes across Phoenix 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 Phoenix

The City of Phoenix Water Services Department provides both water and wastewater service. USGS records it as the largest water utility in the state, serving more than 1,700,000 customers across a 520 square mile service area (a 2021 city figure, cited by USGS in 2024). Scale like that tells you nothing about one property line. That is the part we walk.

City of Phoenix plan review has a rule about soil. When a slab-on-ground foundation goes in without a geotechnical investigation, the designer has to rule out loose, soft, organic, expansive or collapsible soils and unprepared fill in writing (city technical policy TRT/DOC/00282, issued 2020). That shows the city takes those soils seriously at permit time. It is not a measure of how common they are, and it says nothing about what sits under any one house. We report the grading, drainage and cracking we can see and document, and we do not guess at the rest. Working across Maricopa County means we know the questions a home in Phoenix is likely to raise before we open the front door.
