"The features beyond the main house carry real value — and real risk. Make sure no part of your investment goes unchecked before you close."
Pool and spa inspection is a thorough evaluation of a property's pool, spa, and related equipment — along with detached garages, shops, and other outbuildings. These are the features a basic inspection can leave out, yet they carry real value and real liability.
A pool or spa is a significant system in its own right, with pumps, heaters, plumbing, and safety features that all need to be working and safe. And a detached garage or outbuilding is essentially a second structure — with its own roof, electrical, and structural condition worth knowing.
Lane Ragsdale inspects pools, spas, and outbuildings throughout Fayetteville and communities across Southern Middle Tennessee and North Alabama. As a Certified Master Inspector (CMI®) licensed in both states, he makes sure the whole property — not just the house — gets a careful look.
A Lighthouse pool, spa, and outbuilding inspection covers the features and structures beyond the main house.
The shell, surfaces, decking, and visible structure of the pool or spa.
Pumps, heaters, filters, and the plumbing and electrical that run them.
Barriers, fencing, gates, and the safety elements that protect against accidents.
Detached garages, shops, and outbuildings — roof, structure, and electrical.
When you buy a property with a pool, spa, or extra buildings, you're buying those too — and any problems that come with them. A failing pool heater, a cracked shell, or a safety gap in the fencing can be costly and even dangerous.
Detached structures deserve the same scrutiny. A leaking garage roof, outdated wiring in a shop, or structural issues in an outbuilding are exactly the kinds of things worth knowing before you own them.
Having these features inspected means the whole property gets a careful, honest look — so nothing you're paying for goes unchecked, and you can budget for any repairs with your eyes open.
Your inspection delivers clear findings and photos covering the pool, spa, and any outbuildings — in the same plain language as the rest of your report.
From your first phone call to final report delivery, here's exactly what to expect.

It evaluates the pool or spa's visible structure and surfaces, the decking, and the equipment — pumps, heaters, filters, and the plumbing and electrical that run it — plus safety features like barriers and gates.
Yes. Detached garages, shops, and outbuildings are essentially separate structures, and Lighthouse can inspect their roof, structure, and electrical along with the rest of the property.
Absolutely. Pool, spa, and outbuilding inspections are add-ons to a buyer's or pre-listing inspection, so the whole property is covered in a single visit.
Lane evaluates the visible, accessible pool and spa equipment for condition and operation, and flags concerns. Specialized repairs or leak testing may call for a pool specialist, which he can point you toward.
