Our Pool Leak Detection Methods
At Carlito’s Way Pool Leak Detection, I combine multiple proven techniques to locate leaks quickly, safely, and accurately. Whether you’re in Miami-Dade or Broward County, these diagnostics confirm exactly where water loss is happening before any repair begins.
How I Diagnose Pool Leaks
I use the right tool for the right leak—then cross-verify so you’re not paying for guesswork.
💨 Pressure Testing
The most reliable way to diagnose underground plumbing leaks. I isolate each line—skimmer, return, spa, main drain, water feature, or auto-fill— to pinpoint where water loss occurs in Miami and Broward pools.
- Detects leaks invisible from the surface
- Prevents costly structural damage by catching issues early
- Provides precise, measurable results (no guessing)
- Reduces unnecessary digging or repairs
Each line is sealed and pressurized while gauges monitor drops—confirming the leak for targeted repair.
🪣 Bucket Test + Leakalyzer®
The fastest way to determine evaporation vs. a true leak. I pair a classic bucket test with Leakalyzer® data that measures down to 1/10,000th of an inch—then confirm trends for Miami-Dade and Broward County pools.
- Separates normal evaporation from true leaks
- Confirms findings with high-precision data graphs
- Prevents unnecessary service calls or repairs
- Saves time and money before advanced testing
🎧 Hydrophone Leak Detection
Ultra-sensitive underwater microphones “listen” for air or water escaping through a leak—ideal for coastal or older pools in Miami and Broward.
- Finds leaks you can’t see visually
- Pinpoints exact locations without needless digging
- Works on complex pools with spas/water features
- Speeds repairs and reduces cost
🩸 Dye Testing
When leaks are suspected near lights, fittings, cracks, or tile lines, dye testing provides visual confirmation—great for quick checks around drains and skimmers in Miami and Broward County.
- Targets visible cracks, seams, and fixtures
- Offers clear, visual proof of a leak
- Confirms where repairs are truly needed
- Minimal disruption—no invasive work
🔊 Ultrasonic Listening
Highly sensitive devices pick up faint ultrasonic signatures from escaping water/air in pipes or structure—perfect for difficult cases across Miami-Dade and Broward.
- Detects leaks buried in concrete or under decking
- Avoids unnecessary breaking of surfaces
- Excellent when visual/pressure tests are inconclusive
- Pinpoints location to save time and repair costs

Leak Detection BEFORE Resurfacing: Protect Your New Finish
Carlito’s Way Pool Leak Detection • Miami-Dade & Broward County
Planning to resurface your pool? Make sure it’s watertight first. A hidden leak can ruin fresh plaster, inflate costs, and force you to cut into a brand-new finish. At Carlito’s Way Pool Leak Detection, we verify that your pool is sealed and ready for resurfacing using professional methods and documentation.
✅ Why Verify Leaks Before You Resurface
- Protect your new surface: Active leaks can cause blisters, cracks, and peeling in fresh plaster or quartz.
- Save money: Finding leaks after resurfacing often means cutting into the new finish to fix plumbing or shell issues.
- Fix hidden problems: Locate broken pipes, failing fittings, or structural cracks before they damage the new surface.
- Long-lasting results: A watertight pool holds chemicals and water balance better — extending the life of your new finish.
🔍 What We Do (Fast, Non-Invasive)
- Pressure testing of returns, skimmer, main drain, spa & features to isolate underground leaks.
- Dye testing around lights, tile lines, and fittings to confirm suction points.
- Leakalyzer® water loss verification to separate normal evaporation from true leaks (down to 1/10,000th of an inch).
- Photo/Video documentation of findings and included patch(es) when applicable.
🗓️ When to Schedule
Book your leak check before you accept resurfacing bids or at least 1–2 weeks prior to your scheduled plaster date. This gives time to verify, patch, and confirm that the water level is holding.
📍 Local Expertise You Can Trust
Owner-operated and fully insured across Miami-Dade and Broward. We coordinate with resurfacing contractors and provide clear reports for your records.
