Pool leak detection in Rockledge

Rockledge is the oldest incorporated city in Brevard County and has continued to grow since, so the pools between Cocoa and Viera vary widely in age. For that reason, we make no assumptions based on the age of a house. The plumbing under one deck is often different from the next, so our diagnosis comes from pressure gauges and acoustic equipment rather than from what usually goes wrong.

Method

How the leak is located

Acoustic listening detects what cannot be seen, and pressure testing shows which lines will not hold pressure. Together, they narrow the whole pool down to a specific line in a specific place. That is the difference between a repair that opens one small section of deck and one that searches for the problem.

A Rockledge visit usually runs as follows.

  1. Detect

    We confirm the pool is losing water and rule out evaporation. Then we isolate each plumbing line and pressure-test it; a line that will not hold pressure is the one with the problem.

  2. Locate

    Acoustic listening equipment narrows the leak down to one point along the line, and we mark the surface above it. Nothing is opened to find the leak.

  3. Repair

    The repair needs only a small opening at the marked point. If you schedule it with us, the same crew that found the leak makes the repair, and your written report covers what was tested, found and fixed.

A pool with the deck edge excavated to reach the return lines, soil piled beside the opening, a work canopy over the dig and a skimmer housing in the foreground.

Service area

Coverage

Rockledge is in Brevard County, on the mainland between Cocoa and Viera. Cocoa, Viera and Merritt Island are also confirmed service areas, and the Brevard County page covers the whole county. A travel fee may apply for locations 45 minutes or more from Melbourne, Florida. The amount varies by location, so please call for pricing.

Do you work in Rockledge?

Yes, along with Cocoa and Viera on either side of it.

The pool is decades old. Is it worth finding the leak?

Yes. Find the leak first, whatever you plan to do afterward. Refinishing over a leak that has not been located leaves the problem unsolved, and the pool ends up being drained twice.

What do I receive after the inspection?

You receive written findings on the invoice, which is what the person doing the repair needs to work from.

Is a leak under the house handled the same way?

No, it requires a different test. Finding failing water lines beneath a slab is slab leak detection, which we also offer.
