Local Know-How

Why Plano Pools Leak

The older parts of town, like Whiffletree, Los Rios, and Park Forest, started going up in the ’70s, so a pool that went in with the house there could be pushing 50. Later on, building moved west through Deerfield and Willow Bend and kept going up to Kings Ridge after 2000.

Plano’s on black clay, the kind that swells up in the rain and shrinks and cracks in a dry spell, so your pool gets pushed around a little every year. A pool that’s been in the ground since the ’80s has had a few decades of that.

The February 2021 freeze also cracked pool plumbing all over DFW. If your pool started dropping that spring and never quite stopped, a cracked pipe is a good bet.

Pool Leak Detection and Repair in Plano

We don’t price a repair until we know what broke, so every job starts with finding the leak. If you’ve already figured out what’s wrong, our Plano pool repair page has more on fixing it.

How We Find Leaks

Initial Inspection

First we look over the shell, tile, deck, and equipment, and check the yard for wet spots. We'll also ask when you first noticed the water going down.

Dye Testing

We put a little dye next to each fitting, light, skimmer, and crack and watch whether any of it gets drawn in.

Pressure Testing

Each line gets plugged and pressurized by itself, so we can tell which pipe is losing water.

Acoustic Detection

Then we listen along that pipe with acoustic equipment until we hear the break.

Structural Evaluation and Report

If the shell or deck has moved, we'll say so and get a licensed Texas engineer involved. Then you get a report showing where the leaks are.

Signs Your Pool Might Be Leaking

When it’s really hot out, a pool can lose about a quarter inch a day to evaporation, and that’s normal. Anything past that is worth a closer look, especially if you’re noticing any of this:

You’re topping it off more than once a week
The water bill’s up and you haven’t changed anything
Wet or mushy ground near the pool or the equipment pad
New cracks in the deck, the coping, or the tile
Algae that keeps coming back even though the chemistry checks out
Air in the pump basket, or bubbles coming out of the returns

The FAQ below has a 24-hour tape test you can do yourself before you call.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does pool leak detection cost in Plano?

A small pool with plumbing that’s easy to reach costs less to test, and a big one with more lines to check, or lines that are hard to get to, costs more. Either way, you’ll know the price before we start. Repairs are priced separately and average about $2,500.

What's the most common leak you find in Plano?

Skimmers and underground pipes are the two we see most, and both usually come down to age. The seal around the skimmer finally lets go, or an original pipe cracks at a joint. After those, it’s cracks in the shell.

How do I know if it's a leak or just evaporation?

Do a 24-hour tape test. Shut off the autofill, stick a piece of tape on the wall right at the water line, and mark where the water sits. Leave it for a full day without adding any water, then take a look. When it’s hot out, a pool can lose about a quarter inch a day to evaporation, so if it’s gone down more than that, you’ve probably got a leak. Losing water just as fast in cooler weather as you do in July is another sign.

How long does a repair take?

Skimmer and crack repairs are usually done in one visit, and pier work typically takes two to three days. An underground pipe repair depends on where the break is and what’s sitting on top of it, so you’ll get a timeline with the estimate.

Are tree roots a problem in the older neighborhoods?

They can be. Big trees near a pool can work their roots into the plumbing over the years, and sometimes into the shell. It’s mostly an issue where the trees have had decades to grow. If a root has damaged a line, the pressure test will show it.

Get Your Plano Pool Leak Fixed Today

Stop watching your water disappear. Leaks don’t get better on their own, and the water you’re losing ends up in the clay around your pool, which only gives it more reason to move.
