Leak detection
Pool leak detection in Dallas–Fort Worth
A leak detection company finds where water is escaping so it can be repaired instead of guessed at. Most test the pool shell, fittings and plumbing lines.
Common testing methods
- Dye testing around fittings, lights, skimmers and cracks
- Pressure testing of suction and return lines
- Listening equipment to locate leaks underground or under the deck
- Underwater inspection of the shell and fittings
What affects the price
