Testing Tuned to Jericho Homes

In Jericho, mature landscaping, irrigation overspray patterns, and seasonal ground movement can stress fittings, skimmer throats, and underground plumbing runs. We sequence leak tests to rule out evaporation first, then isolate skimmer lines, returns, main drains, and equipment pads with pressure + acoustic confirmation.

From neighborhoods near Jericho Turnpike (NY-25) and Hempstead Turnpike (NY-24) to areas closer to Cantiague Park and the I-495 corridor, we adapt methods to your pool’s surface, age, and access conditions for accurate results.

Jericho Leak Detection — FAQs

How do I know if I have a leak or just evaporation in Jericho?
If you’re losing more than ~¼–½ inch per day consistently (especially with the pump running), topping off often, or noticing wet spots/air in the system, it’s worth testing. We start by ruling out evaporation before isolating plumbing and fittings.
What do you need from me on the day of testing?
Gate/yard access, access to the equipment pad, and any notes on when the issue started (after storms, vacuuming, heater use, etc.). If you’re not home, we can send text updates with photos/video.
What tests are included in a standard leak detection visit?
Typically: pressure testing, dye tracing, acoustic listening, equipment-pad inspection, and line isolation (skimmer/returns/main drain) to pinpoint the most likely source. The exact sequence depends on your pool type and symptoms.
Can you test pools with heaters, spas, or water features?
Yes. We can isolate feature loops and valve settings to confirm whether the loss is coming from a feature line, the main circulation plumbing, or equipment pad connections.
Will you fix the leak the same day?
Sometimes—if it’s a simple fitting/union/valve leak or a small patch. Underground plumbing or structural repairs are quoted separately once we confirm the source and scope.
What does leak detection cost in Jericho?
Leak detection in Jericho starts at $385 + tax for standard residential testing. Repairs, parts, or advanced procedures are quoted separately after we pinpoint the issue.
What should I do before you arrive to improve accuracy?
If possible, don’t top off the pool the morning of your appointment, keep the system available to run, and note your current waterline level. A quick photo of the waterline + equipment pad helps us move faster.
