Leak Detection Service


Most pools will develop a leak at some point. It could happen due to weather temperature changes, ground movement, chemical damage, water erosion, or any numerous reasons. If your pool is losing water and you want a leak detection performed, we can perform a leak check on your pool using several means including sophisticated electronic devised to ensure all leaks are found. The leak detection will come with a digital report including photos. Finding all the leaks can prove to be very challenging. Once all the leaks are found and our digital report is ready there, we can let you know the best course of action to patch or repair it.
  • Before the leak detection can be performed the pool must be filled up to halfway up the mouth of the skimmer AND the pool must be clean and clear.
  • If you decide to perform the repairs with us, then a portion of the electronic leak detection would be credited to the repair as shown in the estimate for repair.
  • All repairs will have a 30-day warranty.
  • Underground repairs such as new skimmer and/or repair of broken line that is under the deck will have a 1-year warranty.

Leaks can be a tough and expensive issue if not handled timely and correctly the first time.  We understand this can be a frustrating circumstance.  We at Paramount Pool Services have over the years learned intricate methods to locating leaks and repair them successfully.  Our technicians are trained and equipped with state-of-the-art technology as well the most basic of methods to check all areas of the pool and spa.

We always say finding a leak is like trying to "locate a needle in a haystack" but it is not impossible. Our techs are trained to locate the leak with precision and offer repair solutions if one cannot be done onsite.  Most leaks are found in the body of the pool, in that case we find the leak and patch it with epoxy putty, hydraulic cement, or bytle tape. This would be included in the price of the leak detection. However, in some cases we find the leak in the pvc line(s) under the deck, such as the return line, skimmer line and such. In these cases, we will attempt to plug the leak for now and we will send you an estimate on the price of repair. You will still be responsible for the leak location charge. 

Our leak detection fees:
  • ​Fees start at $399.00 for standard 15’ x 30’ Pool. (If we can patch it right then and there with epoxy putty, hydraulic cement, or bytle tape then it is included in the price of the leak detection.)  (Standard leak repairs are guaranteed for 30 days, must be same leak.)
  • Certain issues may increase the fee (Dark finishes, all tile pools, waterfalls, cold water, spas, and/or larger pools.)
  • Standard leak checks are guaranteed for 30 days, it is only guaranteed for the same leak that was repaired.
  • Call back charges will apply if there is no leak found when called back.
  • All underground repairs are guaranteed for 1-year.

Our techs are trained to leave your pool in optimal performance, at times leak detections can take time but rest assured that we will find the leak(s) and repair them.  Our technicians will always ensure the safety of all baby gates and backyard fences, as well as ensure that they are closed properly when they are done with their job.  We record all our results within our Work Order Network System updated in real-time, all date stamped and accounted for.  All our trucks are GPS tracked for optimal time efficiency and accountability.  Our entire staff is connected to each one of our service accounts for quicker but efficient response times.


How to perform a BUCKET TEST to determine your pool is leaking:

  1. Have your pool filled to its standard level. This is usually halfway up the tile or halfway up the mouth of the skimmer.
  2. Using a 5-gallon bucket, fill it up ¾ of the way up the bucket and place it on the first step or second step inside the pool.
  3. With a pencil or such mark, the water level inside the bucket where the water level is. (This will represent the evaporation rate.)
  4. With a pencil or such mark, the water level on the outside of the bucket where the water level is. (This will represent the pool leak rate.)
  5. Come back in 24 hours to compare the inside water level to the outside water level marks. If the water level outside the bucket has dropped more than the water level inside the bucket, you likely have a pool leak and need to call a professional.
  6. You can re-do the test with the pool pump on then do the test again with the pool pump off.
  7. Make sure to turn any autofill valve off and close access to the pool.
  8. Make a note to check the bucket at exactly the 24-hour mark, as waiting longer than this can give inaccurate results. If it rains you will have to wait and start over when there is a clear forecast. Please understand in South Florida dry season a normal pool can lose up to 1 inch per week to normal evaporation, it can also increase if water features are constantly on, if you are heating the pool, and or if you have wind.

Customer Reviews:

I can't recommend Paramount Pool Services enough.  They not only know about pools but they know about products and customer support.  They came highly recommended and I understand why.  
-​Glen D.

The staff at Paramount Pools are top notch.  From the time I speak to someone on the phone to the time a technician meets me at home, their customer service is always above reproach.  I feel confident in their services and quality of work.  If any issues did come up, they knew how to resolve it and helped me understand my swimming pool and spa.  I will continue to use them and recommend them.
-Angela P.

It seems like companies today sacrifice quality service for a cheap price.  Paramount Pool Services is always fair in price and yet they don't sacrifice any quality of service and product.  
-Lestor H.

Andy and the team at Paramount Pool Services are truly top notch. I was referred to them by my local pool supply retailer, and never once regretted relying on them for pool issues. I have used them to help fix saltwater cell problems, motor troubles, plumbing leaks and heater issues. Each time, they have been able to diagnose the cause and provide an immediate (or near-immediate) solution. You cannot get a more professional crew and you will be elated by the quality and speed of their work.
