Pool Leak Detection in Houston, TX
Houston pools take a beating from hard water, freeze-thaw cycles, and shifting clay soil. We have spent years finding leaks across the city — from Memorial Park bungalows to Energy Corridor estates — and most jobs are diagnosed in a single visit.
Local Context
What We See in Houston
Houston’s expansive clay subsoil moves with the seasons, which is why plumbing-line leaks under the deck are so common here. We pressure-test every line before recommending repairs.
Whether the issue is a slow drop you only noticed last week or an autofill that has been running for months, we will diagnose it. Most Houston jobs are located in a single visit and many are repaired the same day.

FAQ
Houston Pool Leak FAQ
How do I know if my pool is leaking or just evaporating?
Run a bucket test. Fill your pool to the middle of the waterline tile and mark the level with tape. Fill a 5-gallon bucket to the top and set it on the top step. Run the pool normally for 24 to 48 hours with any water features turned off. If the pool dropped more than the bucket, you have a leak. If they dropped about the same, it is just evaporation.
How do I prepare for a leak detection visit?
Make sure the pool is full to its normal level, the pump and filter are running, and that we have clear access to the pool, the equipment pad, and the breaker. If you have dogs, please secure them — we work around the entire backyard.
Do I need to be home for the service?
No, as long as we can access the backyard, the pool, and the equipment pad. We will call you with findings and email a written report. Payment can be handled by phone.
How much pool water loss is normal?
In Texas summer heat, around ¼ inch per day from evaporation is normal. Significantly more than that suggests a leak — and the bucket test is the quickest way to confirm.
Will leak detection damage my pool or deck?
No. Our detection methods — pressure testing, acoustic listening, dye testing — are completely non-invasive. We locate the leak before any repair work begins, and you approve the repair separately.
