Construction disputes involving swimming pools often require a qualified trade professional to evaluate the installation and determine whether the work meets accepted construction practices and manufacturer installation standards.
Florida Pool Tech performs detailed defect investigations for homeowners, attorneys, insurance professionals, and property owners seeking an objective evaluation of swimming pool construction issues.
Pool Construction Defect Investigation
Swimming pool construction involves multiple specialized trades including structural work, hydraulic plumbing, decking systems, tile installation, waterproofing, and equipment installation. When these components are improperly installed, significant functional and structural problems can occur.
Our defect investigation process typically includes:

• Evaluation of tile, coping, and waterline installation
• Inspection of pool equipment and hydraulic plumbing systems
• Deck slope and drainage analysis
• Identification of installation sequencing issues
• Photographic documentation of construction conditions
• Straight-edge and level verification where applicable
Following the inspection, Florida Pool Tech can provide a written report documenting observed conditions and recommended corrective measures.
