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.
I'm in West Austin — which page should I look at?
Depends on the exact location. If you're inside the City of West Lake Hills (78746), see our dedicated Westlake Hills page. If you're in the City of Rollingwood, use the Rollingwood page. If you're in the Lost Creek master-planned community (78735), use the Lost Creek page. For Far West and the other West Austin zip codes, this umbrella page covers you — we serve all of it weekly.
Can you service older pools with outdated equipment?
Absolutely. We work on pools of every era, including systems from Purex, original Jandy, and early Pentair equipment. When parts are no longer available, we know the modern equivalents that fit without requiring a full replumb. West Austin's older housing stock is full of these legacy systems and we see them every week.
