Why Kendall Homeowners Choose Us

Kendall pools face year-round use, shifting soils, and aging underground lines. I combine pressure testing, dye testing, and Leakalyzer® verification to pinpoint leaks and confirm the fix before I leave. Patches such as 5-minute hardener, epoxy, butyl tape, and threaded plugs are included in the initial detection price.

🎥 Real Job in Kendall, FL — Broken Return Line Found & Confirmed

This Kendall home was losing water due to a broken return line. I pressurized the return circuit to confirm the leak, then used surface acoustics at the deck boot to narrow the location. A small verification drill hole confirmed moisture at the target spot, allowing a precise repair plan with minimal demo.

What I Checked

  • Return, skimmer, and main-drain lines (isolated under pressure)
  • Equipment pad unions, elbows, and fittings
  • Shell, tile line, and fittings (dye tests)
  • Final Leakalyzer® run to confirm water loss = 0.0"

Included Patches = No Surprise Fees

  • 5-Minute Hardener + Epoxy: Instant stabilization + protective overlay
  • Butyl Tape: Preferred around lights/skimmers where flexibility matters
  • Threaded Plugs: Temporarily isolate broken suction or main-drain lines

These patches are included in the initial detection price when needed.

Kendall, FL Pool Leak Detection – Frequently Asked Questions

How can I tell if my pool is leaking or just evaporating?

A pool typically loses up to 1/4 inch of water per day to evaporation. If you're losing more than 1 inch every 4 days, you likely have a leak.

What is the most common area for pool leaks?

The most common sources are skimmers, return lines, light niches, and cracks near tiles or coping.

How much does professional pool leak detection cost?

Leak detection in South Florida typically ranges from $325 – $600, depending on pool size and complexity.

Can you fix a pool leak without draining the pool?

Yes — most leaks can be repaired underwater using specialized equipment without draining the pool.

How do professionals find underground pool leaks?

Professionals use pressure testing, ultrasonic listening equipment, dye tests, and Leakalyzer® digital measurement systems.

Will homeowners insurance cover a pool leak?

Insurance may cover leaks caused by sudden damage. Wear-and-tear or aging-related leaks are usually not covered.

Is it normal to lose an inch of water a day in a pool?

No — in South Florida, losing up to 1/4 inch is normal. More than that likely means a leak.

How do I know if my pool is leaking underground?

Warning signs include constant refilling, soggy ground near pool plumbing, unstable chemistry, or rising water bills.

What’s the difference between hiring a large leak detection company and an owner-operated specialist?

Large companies often rotate techs and charge more to cover overhead. With an owner-operator, you get personal service, consistent communication, accurate diagnostics, and honest pricing — without the risk of a “new trainee” guessing.
