We’ll tell you
if you don’t
have a leak

Plenty of pools aren’t leaking at all — they’re just evaporating in the Texas heat. Drag the waterline down to match what yours did in the last 24 hours, and find out which one you’re looking at before you pay anybody a dollar.

That's evaporation

A DFW pool gives up about a quarter inch a day to summer heat and wind. Nothing is wrong. Don't let anyone sell you a leak.

Why DFW pools leak

This isn't bad luck and it usually isn't bad building. It's the ground your pool is sitting in.

The clay moves

North Texas sits on expansive clay. It swells through a wet spring and shrinks through a dry August, and it does that every single year, hard.

The deck and the shell disagree

Your deck rides the top few feet of that clay. Your pool shell sits deeper, in different soil. They move differently. Anything rigid bridging the two eventually tears.

The skimmer goes first

It's tied to both. That's why a cracked or separated skimmer throat is the most common leak in this market by a wide margin — and why we look there first.

The part nobody tells you

The water bill is not the reason to fix a leak. Even a bad leak runs maybe $60–100 a month in water. That's annoying, not urgent.

The reason to fix it is that water escaping under your deck is washing soil out of expansive clay, and voids in clay are how an $800 skimmer repair turns into a $30,000 deck-and-shell job three summers later. The leak is cheap. The waiting is expensive.

What a leak test gets you

A flat-rate visit, quoted on the phone once we know your pool. No trip charge, no hourly meter, no surprise on the invoice.

Do the bucket test first

Before you call us or anyone else, spend twenty-four hours and zero dollars. This is the same test we'd run, and you can do it yourself.

  1. Fill a five-gallon bucket about three-quarters full and set it on the second step, so it's partly submerged and at the same temperature as the pool.
  2. Mark both levels. Water inside the bucket, water outside on the bucket wall. A grease pencil or a strip of tape works.
  3. Turn off the auto-fill and leave the pump on its normal schedule. Then don't touch anything for 24 hours.
  4. Compare. Both dropped about the same? That's evaporation — your pool is fine. Pool dropped noticeably more than the bucket? That's a leak, and now you know for certain.
