Pool Leak Detection Experts in Boca Raton, Florida

The way a pool leak is fixed depends on the source of the leak. All epoxy patches inside the pool or spa are included in the cost of the leak detection. Any other repairs such as underground pipes, new skimmer install, and permanent repairs made around fittings will result in an additional repair estimate emailed to you for your approval.

Common pool leak repairs are:

• Fittings Leak: Leaks near the pool’s lights, faceplates, or jets can usually be temporarily patched by applying a two-part pool epoxy
• Plumbing Leaks: These can be cracked or broken underground pipes located outside the pool shell. This requires a licensed contractor such as Florida Leak Locators, who is experienced in pinpointing leaks and pool repair, so you get it fixed properly the first time. Sometimes, the only option is to dig around the pool’s foundation to replace the section of broken pipe.
• Main Drain Leaks: Many leaks in a pool’s main drain are located in the sump itself.  Applying a temporary epoxy patch can stop the leak and a more permanent repair can be done in the near future. However, if you have a broken main drain pipe many times you can plug it and turn it off at the equipment side to prevent further leaking while waiting for the repair
• Skimmer Leak: This may be patched with epoxy for a temporary fix until the skimmer can be replaced

Left unchecked, the extra water leaking from the pool can cause your water bills to skyrocket, damage your lawn and landscaping, and even affect the foundation around the pool! A pool leak doesn’t go away on its own. It requires a professional leak location and repair service to fix the damage. Florida Leak Locators offer a one-year warranty on all repairs.
