Precision Pool Leak Repair in Beverly, MA

Stop Wasting Water & Protect Your Pool Structure

In the North Shore region, the swimming season is too short to spend it fighting a losing battle with your water level. A leaking pool in Beverly is more than a nuisance; it is a ticking clock. Every gallon of treated water that escapes into the surrounding soil destabilizes the ground supporting your pool deck and patio. With our region’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles, moisture trapped behind a pool shell or under a deck can turn a minor crack into a major structural failure by next spring. American Leak Detection of Boston delivers specialized diagnostic and repair services designed to identify the breach and seal it, preserving your investment and your summer.

The Compound Effect of a Pool Leak

A leak is rarely just about water loss; it creates a cascade of costly operational issues. When water escapes, you are forced to constantly introduce fresh, untreated municipal water, which throws off your chemical balance and depletes expensive stabilizers. Your pump works harder to maintain circulation, often overheating or losing prime due to air intake. Worst of all, water saturation in the soil can lead to "washouts," causing pavers to sink and concrete decks to crack.

• Chemical Imbalance: Excessive consumption of salt, chlorine, or stabilizers due to dilution.
• Mechanical Stress: Air bubbles shooting from returns or the pump basket failing to fill completely.
• Structural Shifts: New cracks in the bond beam, lifting tiles, or sinking deck pads.
• Abnormal Loss: Losing more than 1/4 inch of water in 24 hours (excluding splash-out).

Systematic Diagnostic Protocol

We treat your pool as a complex hydraulic system, not just a container. Our inspection process is methodical and strictly non-invasive, designed to isolate the fault without digging up your yard based on a hunch. We begin by analyzing the entire vessel—checking the liner (vinyl), shell (gunite), fittings, and skimmers for structural defects.

We then move to the plumbing network. By pressure testing individual lines (suction, return, and cleaner lines), we determine if the failure is underground. If a line fails to hold pressure, we utilize sonic listening devices, hydrophones, and ground microphones to pinpoint the exact location of the break through the soil or concrete. For structural concerns around lights or skimmers, we employ targeted dye testing to visualize the water's exit path. This data-driven approach ensures we know exactly where and why the pool is leaking before we discuss a solution.

Turnkey Restoration: Diagnosis to Repair

We believe your problem isn't solved until the pool is holding water again. While some companies strictly limit themselves to detection, American Leak Detection of Boston is equipped to cross the finish line. Once we isolate the issue, our technicians can transition immediately into repair mode.

Whether it involves injecting a structural crack, replacing a skimmer, or excavating a section of underground pipe, we have the capabilities to execute the fix. This single-source solution eliminates the friction of hiring a second contractor and ensures the repair is performed by the experts who diagnosed the problem. However, we operate with full transparency: if you prefer to hand our diagnostic report to your own maintenance team or builder, you are free to do so. The data belongs to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I tell if it’s evaporation or a leak?

Perform the "bucket test." Fill a bucket with pool water, place it on a step so the internal and external water levels match, and mark them. After 24 hours, compare the loss. If the pool level drops more than the bucket level, you have a leak.

Will detection damage my patio or lawn?

Our testing is primarily non-destructive. We use pressure and sound to locate leaks. If the leak is underground and requires repair, we pinpoint the exact spot to ensure any necessary digging or deck removal is surgical and minimal.

Do you repair the leaks you find?

Yes. American Leak Detection of Boston is a full-service provider. We can move directly from detection to repair, handling everything from vinyl patches to plumbing excavation. You are not required to use us for the repair, but the option is there for your convenience.

What do I need to do before you arrive?

Please ensure the pool is filled to its normal operating level and that the water is clear enough to see the bottom. Clear access to the equipment pad is also helpful. We will provide specific instructions when you book.
