Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my pool is leaking or just evaporating?
In Austin's summer heat, pools can lose up to a quarter-inch per day to evaporation alone. The simplest test is the bucket method: fill a bucket to match your pool level, set it on the step, and compare levels after 24 hours. If the pool drops more than the bucket, you likely have a leak.
Can you find leaks without digging up my yard?
Yes. We use pressure testing, dye injection, and electronic listening to pinpoint leaks before any excavation. In most cases we can identify the exact location without touching your deck or landscaping. Digging only happens at the confirmed leak point.
How long does a leak detection visit take?
A typical leak search takes two to four hours, depending on pool size and plumbing complexity. We aim to identify the source in a single visit so you can make a repair decision right away.
Is The Pool Police on a route through Rollingwood?
Yes — we have a long-running weekly route through Rollingwood proper and the surrounding 78746 area. Because Rollingwood is a small incorporated city, our same tech knows virtually every pool in the neighborhood and has typically serviced many of them for years.
My 1970s Rollingwood pool has original plumbing — can you still service and repair it?
Yes. Rollingwood has a lot of original 1.5" PVC and copper plumbing from the 1970s and early 80s. We know which equipment brands still offer compatible fittings, which modern pumps work on legacy plumbing without a full replumb, and when a retrofit is genuinely required versus optional. We'll give you honest guidance rather than pushing a full renovation.
How do you handle the Zilker-area oak leaf drop?
Rollingwood's canopy is one of the densest in Austin. We skim at every visit, monitor filter pressure closely through fall, and run phosphate-removing chemistry during peak leaf-drop season to prevent the decaying organic matter from feeding algae. Customers whose pools sit directly under mature oaks often benefit from a leaf-net cover through November.
