Hicksville Leak Detection — FAQs

How do I know if I have a leak or just evaporation?
If your Hicksville pool is losing more than ~¼–½ inch per day consistently, needs frequent top-offs, or you notice air bubbles / wet spots, it’s worth testing. We start by ruling out evaporation before isolating plumbing.
What do you need from me on the day of testing?
Gate/yard access, access to the equipment pad, and any notes on when the loss started (after storms, vacuuming, heater use, etc.). If you’re not home, we’ll text updates with photos/video.
What tests are included in leak detection?
Typically: pressure testing, dye tracing, acoustic listening, equipment-pad inspection, and line isolation (skimmer/returns/main drain) to pinpoint the most likely source.
Can you test pools with heaters, spas, or water features?
Yes. We can isolate features and test auxiliary lines/valves to confirm whether the loss is coming from a feature loop or the main circulation plumbing.
Will you fix it the same day?
If it’s a straightforward fitting/union/valve issue or small patch, sometimes yes. Underground or structural repairs are quoted separately and scheduled quickly.
How much does leak detection cost in Hicksville?
Leak detection in Hicksville starts at $385 + tax for standard residential testing. Repairs and parts are quoted separately after we confirm the source.
What should I do before you arrive?
Don’t add water the morning of (if possible), keep the pump available to run, and note the current waterline level. If you can, take a quick photo of the waterline and equipment pad.
Do you service both Nassau and Suffolk from Hicksville?
Yes — Hicksville is a central Nassau location, so we schedule efficiently across nearby Nassau towns and into adjacent Suffolk areas depending on the day’s routing and urgency.
