FAQs
Your Questions, Answered
How do I know if my pool is actually leaking or if it's just evaporation?
Normal evaporation is typically 1/8 to 1/4 inch per day. If you're losing more than that, you likely have a leak. Try the bucket test: fill a bucket and place it on your pool steps for 24-48 hours. If your pool water level drops more than the bucket water level, you have a leak
How long does a leak detection service take?
Most pool leak detections take 2-3 hours to complete. Simple plumbing leaks may only take 1 hour, while complex pools with multiple features may require additional time to test all systems thoroughly.
Will you damage my pool or property while finding the leak?
No. We use non-invasive detection methods including acoustic listening equipment, pressure testing, and non-staining dyes. Unlike "search and destroy" methods used by some companies, our LeakTronics-certified approach locates leaks without unnecessary damage.
What should I do to prepare for leak detection service?
Fill your pool to its normal operating level and ensure the water is clean and clear. Remove any debris that might interfere with our equipment. We'll need access to your pool equipment area and may need to enter the pool for thorough inspection.
Do you fix the leaks you find?
Yes! We provide complete leak repair services including plumbing repairs, skimmer replacement, structural crack repair, and trenchless pipe repair using PipePoxy technology.
