Deliver High Quality Pool Inspections Using Pro Pool Inspectors App with Founder, Dennis Boyd

·1 hr 3 min·4 clips
Dennis Boyd built the app because he once spent 4 hours writing a report after a 30-minute inspection.
Greg opens with a practical question about pool inspections and the value they can bring to a service business. Dennis explains that Pro Pool Inspectors grew out of problems his own team kept running into while trying to do the work well. The app was built by pool people for pool people. It is meant for someone who needs to go out, record data, make notes, take pictures, create a file, and email a PDF report. Dennis says the report output was designed to look creative, professional, and high end when a customer hits generate report. It includes a cover photo page. It also includes a welcome letter. A third page gives a color key so the customer knows how to read the information that follows. The conversation keeps coming back to the burden of writing inspection reports and the hours that can disappear into them. Dennis says the app was originally the tool his company invented so it could produce a comprehensive inspection report and give customers detailed information without spending tons of hours on paperwork. Greg connects that to his own experience of spending a long time assembling photos and writing up the details. Dennis agrees that the point is to save time without skipping steps. The host notes that when you are in a backyard, there are plenty of distractions. Dennis says that is exactly why the app helps keep the inspector on track. The discussion also widens into what a good inspector brings to the table. Dennis says nobody knows everything about the pool industry. He talks about continuing education and learning from mentors who still take classes after decades in the trade. The app reflects that same discipline. Its information is based on industry codes, including the ISPSC codes, ICC codes, National Electrical Codes, APSP manual language, and manufacturer literature. That gives the report a solid standard instead of a loose opinion. Greg and Dennis also talk about how inspections can matter for real estate work and for initial bids on new pools. The idea is that a strong inspection gives a team more information than usual and helps them answer questions and plan with more confidence. The tone stays practical throughout. It is part product explanation, part shop talk, and part reminder that inspection work is a craft that rewards detail.
