How Leak Detection Works in The Villages
When trying to find a leak in a swimming pool, there is a lot of ground to cover! Swimming pool leaks can start small and become worse and worse over time so quick action is key to avoiding disaster. Water loss can occur in structures, plumbing and even in pool equipment itself. Don’t spend your time struggling with trial and error trying to track down leaks when you can call Puddle for quick and efficient results instead. Throughout The Villages, pool leak detection is an important process and our Puddle Pros are committed to getting the best results for our clients.
Part of what makes leak detection in pools so complicated is that there are many parts that keep them moving and each of these is vulnerable to damage and leaks. If you begin to notice that your water level is dropping or utility bills are high, don’t hesitate to call a Puddle technician to inspect structures, plumbing and equipment to ensure systems are running smoothly.
Pool Leak Detection: What to Watch Out For
The major indicators that you are dealing with a leak are water loss and higher water bills. If you begin to notice that there are puddles of water around your pool without reason, there is a good chance that you are dealing with an underground leak or a structural leak in an above ground pool. The longer that your leak is left untreated the worse your issues become so it is important for pool owners to be vigilant.
If you notice your water level dropping, it is important to ask: have you been dealing with higher outdoor temperatures? Has your pool been a high traffic space lately? It is common to experience some water loss if there are tons of bodies going in and out of your pool. High heats cause evaporation that will burn off pool water, causing levels to lower. With all this in mind, it is normal to lose roughly three inches of water a week but any more than that and you are dealing with a problem.
Some issues will be visible to the naked eye, like physical damage. Following bad weather patterns, storms or even construction accidents, there can be physical damage to poolsides and even pool liners. It is easy to spot a large crack or a tear but leaks often are obvious. For those issues that are more subtle, it is always better to call an expert leak detection company.
Puddle Leak Detection Services: The Best Pool Care in The Villages
Local pool professionals understand what your water systems are up against and this means knowing the most common areas to find leaks. In order to decipher whether you are dealing with a structural or plumbing leak. This can be done using dye tests and pressure tests.
Dye tests use coloured dye and strategic placement to identify and track down problem areas. By turning off the pool pump and placing dyes in, experienced technicians are able to follow trails to leaking areas. Dye weighs more than pool water so when applied it will be sucked into a vacuum created by tears in a vinyl liner as well as cracks in concrete pools.
Pressure tests use air flow to find cracks and leaks in systems. When a constant flow of air is applied to plumbing and return lines, it will create air bubbles when it encounters cracks or will cause gurgling sounds in saturated soil. These can be followed using speciality listening tools and a trained ear. From here, it is possible to isolate problem areas and organize leak repair services to fix your issues.
Each member of the Puddle team is highly trained and experienced, so you can rest easy that there is no leak out of reach. In addition to industry experience and resources, Puddle Pros are fully insured to provide peace of mind.
The Villages Leak Detection: Frequently Asked Questions
Can pool water features run during a water shortage in The Villages?
Under the criteria for SWFWMD's Modified Phase III water shortage order, a water feature that is an integral part of a swimming pool circulation system may operate as necessary, while aesthetic fountains are limited to four hours a day. That order covers all of Sumter County, part of Lake County and The Villages in Marion County and limits lawn watering to one day a week. Shortage orders change, so check SWFWMD or the Districts for the rules in effect.
Which The Villages neighborhoods do you cover?
We look after pools across The Villages, including Spanish Springs, Lake Sumter Landing, Brownwood Paddock Square, Village of Fenney, Lady Lake and Fruitland Park. The full list of areas is on our The Villages page. If you do not see yours, get in touch and we will confirm.
Can you test the plumbing lines as well as the pool shell?
Yes. Pressure testing checks the plumbing lines individually, which is how we tell a plumbing leak from a leak in the shell or liner. It is worth testing all the lines even when the leak seems obvious, because a second leak is easy to miss.
Should I keep the pool running while I wait for a leak test?
Keep the water level above the skimmer so the pump does not run dry, and note how much water you add and when. That record helps the test. If the level is dropping quickly, tell us when you book so the visit can be prioritized.
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.

Puddle pools has been servicing our pool for several years. Rick has always been very responsive and our tech, Jacob, is fantastic. I have recommended him to all our friends with pools.
I just want to share the amazing support I have received from Puddle Pools. Let's start with Anne Marie...I was having pump issues and the pump needed to be replaced. While we waited for the part, Anne Marie took care of the pool and made sure it remained clean despite the pump not working. Then the pump was replaced and it went great but Puddle Pools was receiving a warning light, so they came out proactively to repair it. Well, Brayden spent a good two hours working the issue and would not stop until it was resolved. Then I was having problems with the lights and they needed to be programmed. He again troubleshooted it and now they are fine. Lastly Rick and Sheila, I can't thank them enough for their proactive approach. When I got the email on how to properly handle the cold weather. I was like WOW that was so helpful!! Thank you Puddle Pools you guys are amazing!!!
We couldn't be happier with the services provided by Puddle Pool Services and in particular Jacob P! He does a great job, always pleasant and friendly! Thank you!
