Our Company

Swimming Pool Inspection Services (SPI) was established in 2010 by WD Michlin as a way to provide reliable, unbiased inspections for insurance adjusters in Southern California. Over the last fifteen years, SPI has grown to encompass a nationwide network of swimming pool inspectors and experts, and has performed inspections all across the country.

The idea for SPI began in 2009 after helping pools in Southern California come into compliance with the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (VGBA). This law required pools and spas to switch from having only one main drain to having two, in order to minimize the force of suction on any one drain. Soon after, SPI began providing inspections for pools and spas that had been affected by Southern California’s wildfires.

Over the years, the services that SPI provides have increased; our inspections are comprehensive, and in addition, we provide engineering inspections and many more related services. At SPI, our goal is to help the insurance, asset and risk management fields easily identify problems with pools, spas, hot tubs, fountains, waterscapes and decking as well as pinpoint the cause of loss for insurance claims, both for residential pools and commercial pool facilities.
