Leak Detection — FAQs

How do I know if I have a leak or just evaporation in Westbury?
If your pool is consistently losing more than about ¼–½ inch per day, needs frequent top-offs, or you notice wet spots/air bubbles at returns, it’s worth testing. We start by ruling out evaporation, then isolate plumbing to confirm the source.
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 loss started (after storms, vacuuming, heater use, etc.). If you’re not home, we can send updates with photos/video and a clear next-step plan.
What tests are included in leak detection?
Typically: pressure testing, dye tracing, acoustic (sonic) listening, equipment-pad inspection, and line isolation (skimmer/returns/main drain) to pinpoint the most likely source.
Can you test pools with heaters, spas, or water features?
Yes. We can isolate features and test auxiliary lines/valves to confirm whether the loss is coming from a feature loop or the main circulation plumbing.
Will you fix it the same day?
If it’s a straightforward fitting/union/valve issue or small patch, sometimes yes. Underground or structural repairs are quoted separately and scheduled quickly once we confirm the source.
How much does leak detection cost in Westbury?
Leak detection in starts at $385 + tax for standard residential testing. Repairs and parts are quoted separately after we confirm the source.
What should I do before you arrive?
If possible, don’t add water the morning of, keep the pump available to run, and note the current waterline level. A quick photo of the waterline and equipment pad helps us move faster when we arrive.
