Description of Work: Performed full leak detection on an in-ground swimming pool. Pressure tested skimmer line and return line. Performed electronic leak detection on vinyl liner. Located one leaking hole in liner. Patched the leaking hole. Replaced an old patch as well.

Member Comments: Overall, this was a good experience. I was losing 2 inches of water daily from my in-ground pool and could not find the leak. I called American Leak Detection and three other providers of pool leak detection services. Only American called me back same day. They have preset prices for their work. Within 2 days of my call they arrived as scheduled, found the leak and fixed it. Though they are expensive, I am happy with their work and responsiveness.

Review Source: AngiesList.com

Description of Work: We recently purchased a house with a pool that was loosing water at about 1 inch per day. American Leak Detection was called to find leaks, both in the liner and/or underground. Found 1 major leak in liner and 4 minor ones. They repaired them and gave me some advice on preventing further leaks

Member Comments: Very professional from start to finish. Took time to answer all my questions and I think their prices were very fair
