Expert Assessment
What kinds of pool inspections do you do?
With over 20 years of industry experience, I provide expert pool inspections for insurance claims and pre-purchase home assessments.
Insurance Claims
Fire, flood, and storm damage assessment. I act as a neutral expert to distinguish between normal age-related wear and actual insurable damage. My reports provide fair, market-accurate repair estimates that help resolve claims quickly and honestly.
- Storm & hail damage evaluation
- Fire & flood impact assessment
- Structural integrity analysis
- Market-accurate repair estimates
- Insurance-ready documentation
Pre-Purchase Inspections
Don't rely on a general home inspector for your pool. I perform specialized testing to catch expensive problems — like plumbing leaks or structural failure — before you buy. My goal is to ensure your dream home doesn't come with a nightmare pool.
- Plumbing pressure testing
- Equipment condition evaluation
- Surface & structural assessment
- Code compliance review
- Estimated repair cost report

Licensed & Experienced
Not Just an Inspector — A Licensed Insurance Adjuster
Most pool inspectors can tell you something is broken. I can tell you why it broke, whether it's insurable, and exactly what it costs to fix — because I've built pools, repaired them, and worked the insurance side of the process.
My Texas All-Lines Insurance Adjuster License, issued by the Texas Department of Insurance, means I understand both the construction and insurance perspectives. This dual expertise gives my reports the credibility that insurance companies, attorneys, and homebuyers trust.

Licensed Adjuster
TX All-Lines Insurance Adjuster License #2270028 — a credential most pool inspectors simply don't have.
3D Documentation
When needed, I can create photorealistic 3D damage reconstructions for insurance claims and litigation support.
Questions
Pool Inspections — FAQ
What is the difference between an insurance-claim inspection and a pre-purchase inspection?
A claim inspection happens after an event — storm, hail, fire or flood — and its job is to separate normal age-related wear from insurable damage and put a market-accurate repair figure on it in language the carrier understands. A pre-purchase inspection happens before you close on a house: it looks for the expensive problems a general home inspection misses, such as plumbing leaks, equipment at end of life and shell or deck movement.
What does a pool inspection cover?
Plumbing pressure testing, equipment condition (pump, filter, heater, automation and lighting), the interior surface, tile and coping, the shell and deck for structural movement, a code-compliance review of barriers and drains, and photo documentation. The report closes with an estimated repair cost so you know what you are buying or claiming.
Where do you inspect?
In person across the Dallas–Fort Worth area. For claims, attorneys and carriers outside DFW, the remote option is forensic visualization built from your photos, plans and inspection files — see forensic visualization.
Why does an insurance adjuster license matter for a pool inspection?
Texas All-Lines Insurance Adjuster License #2270028, issued by the Texas Department of Insurance, covers the same lines of coverage a carrier's own adjuster works under. That means the report is written in the terms and format claims desks already use — cause of loss, pre-existing condition versus covered damage, and a repair scope priced to the market — instead of a generic checklist.
Can my general home inspector check the pool?
Most general home inspections stop at running the equipment and looking at the water. They do not pressure-test the plumbing, evaluate the shell and deck for movement, or price the repairs. With 20+ years building and repairing pools, that is exactly where this inspection starts.
Who hires you?
Homeowners filing a claim, homebuyers under contract, insurance carriers who need a neutral pool expert, national pool-inspection companies who dispatch their Dallas–Fort Worth jobs to a local inspector — mostly after a hail storm, fire or flood, and attorneys who need the damage documented — and, when a case calls for it, reconstructed in photorealistic 3D for litigation support.
