What is pool leak detection?
Swimming pool leak detection is a trained discipline that locates leaks in pool systems. Common techniques include hydrostatic testing, infrared testing, video cameras and laser technology to find and determine the leaks location and size. The training for a leak detection technician can take months to properly learn how to operate the equipment and technology. It is a discipline that takes strategy and some art to truly master over time.
How can I tell if there is a water leak under concrete?
Determining if you have a pool leak can sometimes be accomplished by watching out for these signs. Water leaks under concrete often cause dips and cracks in the concrete itself. Water can slowly erode the surface underneath the concrete and cause dipping of the slab. This lack of foundation for the concrete usually leads to cracking throughout the concrete. The cracks will likely grow quickly as the foundation underneath continues to erode.
Another obvious sign for water leaks can be large spikes in water bills. Sometimes, concrete can hide a leak and the only way for a homeowner to know is by looking at the bills. If you notice an unusual spike, it might be time to call a residential leak detection company that can use cameras and sensors to find a leak underneath the concrete. Sometimes it's not obvious, but here's a little list of the most common areas pool leaks occur.

Can I do my own pool leak detection?
You might be able to do your own leak detection for your pool, although it may be difficult to pinpoint the leak exactly on your own. There are a few trick and tips that a homeowner could perform that could help you determine if you have a leak. One of them is called a DIY Bucket Test. Where things will still get challenging is finding the leak location. This often takes more skill and better equipment (unless it's an obvious leak like in the tile). Then, even after you've determined whether you have a leak, you now need to determine how to fix the leak. That's a whole other question.
