Buying a Home with a Pond
Buying a Home with a Pond? Let Us Inspect It First
A pond can be a beautiful bonus when you’re shopping for a new home — but without a proper inspection, it can also become an unexpected headache. Whether it’s a koi pond, waterfall, or decorative water feature, these systems require care, maintenance, and sometimes repair.
At Prestige Illumination & Ponds LLC, we offer professional pond inspections for homebuyers to give you peace of mind before you sign the dotted line.
🏡 Why a Pond Inspection Matters
Most traditional home inspectors don’t specialize in water features. That means key components of a pond system could go unchecked — including:
- Pumps, filters, and plumbing
- Liner integrity and leaks
- Algae and water clarity issues
- Fish health and habitat quality
- Structural stability of rocks, edging, and waterfalls
A pond that looks great might have hidden problems beneath the surface. We help you uncover them before it’s too late.
🔍 What’s Included in a Pond Inspection?
When you book a real estate pond inspection with us, we provide a full health and systems check, including:
- Visual and functional pump test
- Filtration and skimmer assessment
- Leak checks and water level tracking
- Fish and aquatic plant evaluation
- Condition of lighting, waterfalls, and edges
We’ll give you a detailed report with findings and repair estimates (if needed) — so you know exactly what you’re buying into.
