Pool Leak Detection in Lafayette Parish, LA

Stop Water Loss and Protect Your Pool Investment

Is your water level dropping faster than evaporation can explain? Are you seeing soggy spots in the yard or facing a sudden spike in your utility bill? These are not just annoyances; they are symptoms of a potential structural failure. At American Leak Detection of Gulf Coast, we specialize in pool leak detection, providing the precise answers you need to stop the waste. We don't guess, and we don't start digging at random. We use data-driven methods to pinpoint the source of the leak, protecting your property or business from extensive water damage.

The High Cost of Ignoring a Leak (The Problem)

In the Louisiana heat, a small leak can quickly escalate into a major financial burden. Water escaping from your pool can undermine the supporting soil, leading to deck settling, structural cracks in the shell, or liner failure.

Whether you have a gunite, vinyl, or fiberglass pool, the risks are the same:

• Chemical Waste: You are constantly replacing expensive chemicals that are leaking out along with the water.
• Structural Erosion: Water washing away the backfill can cause the pool walls to shift or collapse.
• Equipment Strain: Pumps run dry or work overtime to maintain pressure, shortening their lifespan.

We provide the definitive diagnosis you need to stop this cycle of loss.

Built for Lafayette’s Clay Soils and Climate (Local Expertise)

Pools in Lafayette Parish face unique environmental stressors that generic services often overlook. Our region’s heavy clay soils expand and contract significantly between our soaking rains and scorching summers. This ground movement puts immense pressure on plumbing lines and pool shells, causing fractures that are often invisible to the naked eye.

From the shifting grounds to the older established pools, our technicians understand the local geology. We know where to look because we know how local pools are built and how our soil interacts with them. We don't just look for a hole; we analyze the environment to find the root cause.

Don't let the Louisiana heat drain your wallet. If you suspect a leak, get a professional assessment before the damage spreads. Call American Leak Detection of Gulf Coast at (337) 564-3753 or request your service call now for a precision inspection in Lafayette Parish, LA.

The "No-Dig" Diagnostic Promise (The Experience)

We know that the idea of leak detection brings up images of jackhammers and destroyed decks. At American Leak Detection of Gulf Coast, we operate differently. Our philosophy means we use technology, not destruction, to find the problem.

We employ a systematic, multi-point inspection process:

• Hydro-Phonic Listening: We use underwater microphones to "hear" the sound of escaping water through the shell or plumbing.
• Static Pressure Testing: We isolate the plumbing lines to determine exactly which pipe (skimmer, return, or main drain) is compromised.
• Dye Testing: We use precise dye placement to visually confirm leaks around lights, skimmers, and structural cracks.
• The Result: You receive Upfront Pricing before we begin, and a detailed report after we finish. We explain exactly where the leak is and what needs to be done to fix it, empowering you to make the right choice for repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I tell if it's a leak or just evaporation?

Evaporation in Lafayette Parish can be significant, but there is a limit. You can perform the "Bucket Test." Fill a bucket with pool water, place it on a pool step (partially submerged), and mark the water level on both the inside and outside. After 24 hours, compare the drop. If the pool water drops significantly more than the water in the bucket, you likely have a leak that requires professional attention.

Do you repair the leaks you find?

We are a full-service solution provider. Our primary goal is accurate diagnosis. Once the leak is pinpointed, whether it is a vinyl patch, a skimmer crack, or a plumbing break, we can either perform the repair ourselves or provide you with a detailed scope of work to give to a contractor. We ensure you have a clear path to a fixed pool.

How much does leak detection cost?

We believe in transparency. Upfront Pricing is a core part of our business model. Because pool sizes and complexities vary (e.g., attached spas, complex water features), we provide a flat-rate quote for the detection service before we schedule the appointment. You will never be hit with hidden fees or open-ended hourly charges for the inspection.

Will your equipment work on green or dirty pools?

For the most accurate results, the pool should be clean and clear. Algae and cloudy water can interfere with visual dye testing and can sometimes mask the sounds our acoustic equipment needs to detect. We recommend ensuring the pool is as clean as possible before our technician arrives to ensure 100% accuracy.
