Why Ladysmith Pools Need Leak Detection
Having a swimming pool is great — as long as it isn’t leaking! When a pool, spa or hot tub springs a leak it means thousands of litres of water spilling out into surrounding areas. At home or in a commercial space, even a small leak can quickly lead to serious water damage, flooding, rot, mold and a whole lot of headache! If you suspect that you are dealing with swimming pool leaks, don’t hesitate to call a Puddle Pool Pro. Specialized Ladysmith pool leak detection is able to not only locate the leak but determine what sort of leak you are dealing with and isolate problem areas.
Proper leak detection services should assess different areas of your pool, testing for leaks to ensure that there is nothing hiding out behind the scenes. If you begin to notice displaced pool water or a reduced water level, it is important to call in detection services at the first sign of trouble. The longer that you wait, the worse the issue becomes and the more difficult the leak repair process will be. Puddle technicians have all of the right tools, resources and technical training to track down leaks in plumbing lines, structures or even pool equipment.
Swimming Pool Leak Detection: What to Watch Out For
Leak detection in pools is a complicated process on many levels. Just identifying whether or not you have a leak can be difficult. There is a big difference in losing a couple inches of water to evaporation and dealing with water leaks. There are a few key indicators that could be used to work out whether or not you are dealing with a leak.
Evaporation: This is a natural process that occurs when pool water is exposed to high heats. When the temperature is up, your water levels will go down. In a high use, high temperature space, it is common to see anywhere from 3-5 inches of water loss over the course of a week. If you find yourself losing much more water than this, it is a good idea to call in an expert.
Pooling Water: During the rainy season, puddles are common throughout Ladysmith and the surrounding areas but if you start to notice pools forming around swimming pools without reason, you may have a problem. If an above ground pool is leaking, it will flood lawns while inground pools produce underground leaks that saturate soil.
Increased Utility Bills: As a property owner, you have an idea of what your households bills should be every month. If you start to notice that water bills are on the rise, your pool might be to blame.
If you begin to notice one or all of these symptoms, it is a good idea to call in an expert. Visual assessments cover surfaces areas and vinyl liners but when you want real results, it is important to look below the surface.

Ladysmith Leak Detection: Frequently Asked Questions
Can a hot tub or spa leak be detected the same way?
Yes. Spas and hot tubs have plumbing, jets and fittings that can leak just like a pool. The same testing approach applies, adapted to the spa's equipment.
Does a vinyl liner pool leak differently from a concrete pool?
The usual suspects differ. Vinyl liners tend to leak through tears, punctures or around fittings and faceplates, while concrete and plaster pools are more likely to leak through cracks or at tile lines, lights and returns. Dye testing works on both.
How do I know if my pool is leaking or just losing water to evaporation?
Some water loss is normal, especially in hot, dry or windy weather and after heavy use. A leak is more likely when the level keeps dropping faster than the weather explains, when it drops even with the pump off, when the ground near the pool or equipment stays wet or when you are adding water every few days. A simple bucket test (a bucket of pool water on a step, comparing the two levels after a day) helps separate the two, and a leak detection visit confirms it.
How do you find a pool leak?
We test the pool in stages rather than guessing. Pressure testing tells us whether the plumbing lines are holding, and dye testing shows where water is escaping at fittings, cracks, lights, skimmers and returns. Checking both the structure and the plumbing matters, because a pool can leak from more than one place.
Is leak detection invasive? Will you need to dig up my yard?
Detection itself is non invasive. Pressure and dye testing are done from the pool and the equipment, without digging. Excavation only comes into the conversation if a leak is confirmed in an underground line, and then the testing tells us where to open up rather than searching blindly.
