The walkways around the pool should be somewhat rough to avoid slips and trips into the pool. The pool linings need to be regularly inspected to ensure that cracks are filled to avoid future damages in the future. A pool inspector also checks for proper rainwater drainage for outdoor pools and any pitch or tilt in the decking. The surrounding areas of the pool need evaluation for the quality and safety of swimmers and onlookers. The roof gutters should be positioned to avoid rainwater from dripping into the pool. The inspectors also check on other natural features such as the landscape, which could influence the pool's enjoyment. All pool accessories need scrutiny for rusting and sharp edges that may cause injuries. The floating tubes also need to be replaced if any air leaks prevent potential risks and liabilities.
