Professional Pool Leak Detection Services in Houston, TX

Swimming pools typically have two main types of leaks that require different detection methods. A+ Leak Detection uses advanced technology and proven techniques to accurately locate leaks in your pool system, saving you time and money on unnecessary repairs.

With over 20 years of experience serving the Greater Houston area, we've helped more than 6,000 customers identify and resolve pool leaks. Our systematic approach ensures we find the exact source of your leak the first time.

Why Early Leak Detection Matters

Pool leaks aren't just about losing water - they can cause serious structural damage to your pool, deck, and surrounding property. Even small leaks can waste thousands of gallons of water monthly, driving up your utility bills and potentially causing foundation issues.

Our professional leak detection service identifies problems before they become expensive disasters. We use non-invasive methods whenever possible to pinpoint leak locations without unnecessary excavation or damage to your landscaping.

Our Proven Detection Process

Every leak detection job starts with a thorough visual inspection and water loss analysis. We then use specialized tools including pressure testing devices, electronic listening devices, and dye testing to locate the exact source of your leak.

Our certified technicians have the experience to distinguish between different types of leaks and recommend the most cost-effective repair approach for your specific situation.

Structural Leak Detection

Structural leaks are actual leaks from the vessel itself - imagine your pool is a bucket and the bucket has a hole in it. These leaks occur in the pool shell, tile line, or surrounding structures and can cause serious damage if not addressed quickly.

What causes structural leaks:

  • Pool shell settling and cracking over time
  • Tile line deterioration from chemical exposure
  • Expansion joint failure
  • Poor initial construction or materials
  • Ground movement and soil shifting

How we detect structural leaks:

Structural leaks are located with experience, specialized dye testing, and visual inspection techniques. Our team knows exactly where to look based on pool age, construction type, and common failure points.

Common structural leak locations:

  • Pool shell cracks in corners and deep end
  • Tile line separation at waterline
  • Spa spillway connections
  • Steps and bench seating areas
  • Light niches and return fittings
  • Expansion joints around coping

Plumbing Leak Detection

Plumbing leaks are usually PVC pipe and/or fittings that break underground. To accurately detect if and where plumbing leaks exist, we pressure test the plumbing system in your pool and spa one section at a time.

What causes plumbing leaks:

  • Tree roots growing into pipes
  • Ground shifting from poor drainage
  • Improper workmanship during installation
  • Low-quality materials used in construction
  • Freeze damage in winter months

Our detection process:

If our pressure test confirms a leak, we pinpoint the exact location using ultrasonic sound devices. This prevents unnecessary digging and minimizes damage to your property.
