Common Signs of a Pool Leak
Not sure if you have a leak or just evaporation? Here are the common signs it's time to call a professional:
- Significant Water Loss: Your pool drops more than 1/4 inch per day.
- Soggy Spots in the Yard: You notice unexplained wet patches or mushy grass around the pool.
- Cracks or Settling: New cracks appear in the pool deck, or tiles become loose.
- High Water Bills: A sudden, unexplained spike in your water or electric bill (from the auto-filler running constantly).
- Algae or Chemical Imbalances: You struggle to keep the pool chemistry balanced, or algae returns quickly after treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my pool has a leak or just normal evaporation?
A simple "bucket test" can help. Place a bucket of pool water on your pool step and mark the water level in both the bucket and the pool. After 24 hours, if the pool has lost significantly more water than the bucket, you likely have a leak.
Will you have to dig up my yard to fix the leak?
Not usually. First, our detection methods are non-invasive. Second, many repairs (like those inside the pool shell or in the skimmer) don't require any digging. If a repair is needed for an underground pipe, our precise detection ensures we only access a small, targeted area.
How long does a typical leak detection and repair take?
Most detection inspections can be completed within a few hours. The repair timeline depends entirely on the location and severity of the leak. A simple fix may take an hour, while a more complex plumbing repair could take longer. We will always provide a clear time estimate.
Can a small pool leak really cause damage?
Yes. Over time, even a small leak can waste thousands of gallons of water and, more importantly, lead to soil erosion under your pool deck and foundation. This can cause costly structural damage if ignored.
