Syosset Leak Detection — FAQs

What’s the fastest way to confirm a leak at my Syosset pool?
The quickest first step is a controlled “bucket test” to separate evaporation from a true leak. If loss continues beyond normal evaporation, we move into line isolation, pressure testing, and dye tracing.
Do you check the equipment pad and valves during leak detection?
Yes. We inspect the pump, filter, heater (if applicable), valves, unions, and any visible plumbing first. Many “leaks” are small drips at fittings or valve stems that are easy to miss.
Can you find leaks in vinyl liners without draining the pool?
Most of the time, yes. Dye testing at fittings, seams, steps, and returns can identify liner leaks without draining. If a deeper inspection is needed, we’ll explain options before any major changes.
What if the leak is underground — will you dig?
Our goal is to pinpoint the leak location as accurately as possible (often within a small zone). Digging/repairs are quoted separately, and we’ll review the mark-out and plan with you first.
How long does a typical Syosset leak detection visit take?
Most residential leak detection appointments take 60–120 minutes depending on pool size, features, and whether multiple lines need isolation/pressure testing.
Do I need to shut the pool off before you arrive?
No. Leave the system as-is unless we tell you otherwise. If possible, avoid topping off the water the morning of the visit so we can measure the current waterline accurately.
What does leak detection cost in Syosset?
Leak detection starts at $385 + tax for standard residential testing in Syosset. If your pool has complex features (spa loops, multiple lines), we’ll explain any added testing before proceeding. Repairs/parts are quoted separately.
