Before your leak detection:

• Provide us with any gate/lockbox codes and/or keys to the pool area and equipment room ahead of time.
• Provide us with a contact name & phone number for someone on-site if possible.
• Ensure we can park a high-top van and trailer near the pool/spa area.
• Ensure we have access to the equipment room, a working electrical outlet and the breaker box.
• Have the pool/spa filled to the normal level and make sure the water is clean & clear.
• Have the pool/spa area CLOSED to the public and any other contractors the day of the appointment.
• Remove your pool/spa cover if you have one. 
• Ensure humans & pets are secured inside or separate from the pool area.

What's included in your quote:

The price we quote is a flat rate, with no additional hourly charges. When we find a leak we do not stop testing. We continue to test your entire system to ensure that there are no secondary leaks.

This fee includes the following:

• Pressure testing of all underground pool/spa plumbing (suction, returns, sweep and auto-fill)
• Sonar testing of any leaking underground pipes to pin-point leak(s).
• Underwater dye testing to locate any leaks in the pool/spa basin (skimmer, lights, bottom suction drain, pipe openings, cracks, etc). This part of the testing includes pressure-testing the bottom suction drain pipe as well.

*With sonar testing, only one leak can be pinpointed in any given pipe (the loudest leak heard). Secondary leaks can only be found after repair of the initial leak is complete. Re-testing is included in our repair pricing.
**For underwater testing the water must be clean and clear (can see the bottom and no algae). We can only dye-test the portion of your pool that is underwater, so please have the pool filled to its normal level.
​
​This fee does not include:

• Testing of any above ground equipment or extras such as solar system, water features or fountains, in-deck jets, floor cleaning pop-up system or heads. These are additional fees.
• Testing of any decorative rock associated with a pool, spa, fountain or water-features.
• Repairs
