Pool, Spa, & Fountain Leak Services Columbus

Leak Detection Without Destruction™ for Residential Water Features

Pools, spas, and fountains are the most complex water systems on a residential property. Below the deck and behind the shell, every feature runs through supply lines, return fittings, equipment connections, and structural joints, and any of those points can fail without showing a sign at the surface. American Leak Detection of Columbus offers pool, spa, and fountain leak services that find the source before water loss becomes structural damage.

Our leak specialists use proprietary detection equipment to locate the problem with precision, without opening your deck or draining the pool. As The Original Leak Specialist™, we know exactly where to look and what to test.

    "They showed up on time and gave good advice with a fair price."

    - Alda F.
    "They came in, investigated with smoke, and fixed the problem. For the first time in two months, my house doesn't smell like a restaurant toilet."
    “I had an awful rotten egg smell as soon as I bought our house. After calling two plumbers (who charged me a fee to tell me nothing was wrong), the Gas Company (no gas leak), and the Public Works Department, I finally called American Leak Detection. They came in, investigated with smoke, and fixed the problem. For the first time in two months, my house doesn't smell like a restaurant toilet. Highly recommend them!”
    - Sandi T.
    "I can't say enough good things about their service!"
    “I can't say enough good things about their service! We had a slab leak that flooded the master bedroom and they came as quickly as they could and then rearranged their work schedule so the repair could be made and we could once again have water turned on. The workmen were professional and efficient. I hope I never have to use that kind of service again but if so, they are he best.”
    - Carolyn R.
    "After 30 years in this house, we have had many service people come to do work. No one has ever delivered better than Daniel."
    “Tree roots had cracked my filter pipes and I was losing water badly. I was referred to American Leak Detection and set up an appointment. Daniel came out and did his best to diagnose the problem. He got very strange results and it was hard to determine the exact pipe(s) that were cracked but since I'd had a similar repair done 6 years ago and we could see evidence of the tree root damage from above, I felt confident we knew were the issue was and I contracted for the work. I was pleasantly surprised to see Daniel return to perform the work. I arranged to be home that day so I could see what he found. I supposed I hovered, taking pictures of the process, asking questions as he went along. He never got annoyed and answered every question with a smile. I don't think i ever saw anyone work harder. It was obvious from that start he had a lot of experience and knew what he was doing. Digging out the area had to be done mostly by hand which he did efficiently without complaints. He found multiple pipes cracked which explained the odd results during diagnosis. The job took longer than expected because it was difficult work and he ran out of daylight but on the job until he it wasn't possible anymore that day. Even though he was fully booked for the following day, his company rearranged his schedule so he could return the following afternoon. I returned home early from work and was able to see him complete the job. He even patched the deck with new concrete like an artisan, taking every care to make it as smooth and neat as possible. After 30 years in this house, we have had many service people come to do work. No one has ever delivered better than Daniel. He was competent, diligent, and pleasant. The cost wasn't cheap but it was fair. I don't mind at all paying for quality service.”

Signs Your Pool, Spa, or Fountain Has a Leak

Water features lose some water naturally. Knowing what separates normal loss from an active leak helps you act before the damage grows.

Common signs a leak may be present:

  • Water loss beyond a quarter inch per day
  • Wet, soft, or spongy ground near the pool, deck, or fountain basin
  • Equipment losing prime or running constantly
  • Visible cracks on the shell, coping, or surrounding deck
  • Autofill cycling more frequently than normal
  • A spike in your water bill without a clear explanation

Any of these signs is worth a professional inspection. Contact American Leak Detection of Columbus to get a confirmed answer.
