Know What You're Getting Before You Take Ownership
A pool or spa can be one of the most appealing features of a home, and one of the most expensive to repair if something’s not right. Nighthawk Inspections evaluates accessible pool and spa equipment, systems, and safety features throughout Sacramento and Northern California so you know exactly what you’re taking on before you close.
PEACE OF MIND BEFORE CLOSING
Why Have the Pool and Spa Inspected?
A standard home inspection gives pools and spas a limited look. A dedicated pool and spa inspection goes deeper, evaluating the equipment, systems, and safety features that a general inspection doesn’t have time to fully assess.
Pools and spas involve pumps, heaters, filtration systems, electrical components, structural surfaces, and safety barriers, all working together. When one part isn’t performing the way it should, it doesn’t always show up during a showing.
A professional inspection gives you a clear picture of where things stand so you can plan accordingly, before you’re the one responsible for the repair bill.
