Frequently Asked Questions About Pool Leak Detection
The bucket test is the most reliable DIY method: fill a bucket with pool water, place it on a step, mark both water levels, and check after 24 hours. If the pool level drops noticeably more than the bucket level, you have a leak. Book a BuildHelp technician for a precise professional diagnosis.
Not always. In many cases, our technicians can detect and repair leaks without fully draining the pool, using underwater sealants and professional diving equipment. Whether a full or partial drain is required is determined on a case-by-case basis following the initial assessment.
A standard diagnostic visit typically takes 2 to 4 hours. Repair timescales depend on the complexity of the issue: a simple spot seal can often be completed the same day, while more extensive repairs involving tile removal or fitting replacement may take 1 to 3 working days.
