We use highly sensitive electronic equipment with audio transmitters that bounce high or low frequency waves off main or lateral water lines, which will indicate where the leak or leaks are and how deep they are.We also do a complete visual inspection of the pool. Finally we static test and if needed pressure test the lines (no additional charge) in the pool to find any leaks.
If we find the leak is inside the pool or spa (which is approximately 90% of the time), we will repair the leak using two part underwater epoxy or underwater hydraulic cement. This minor repair should eliminate the problem, as long as there are no structural beam problems, and as long as the pool does not need renovations or regrouting.
We believe in water conservation and ecological preservation, so we're going to search intensely until we find that ever evasive leak. Did you know in North Carolina it is mandatory to have your pools checked for leaks because of drought conditions. We are the leader when it comes to finding leaks in the Orlando (Orange County area). Many of the large pool companies and other leak detection companies call us when they are stumped and can't find the leak.
Florida Leak Locators price is all inclusive. We will find the leak or leaks inside of your pool or spa without any additional charges and include any minor repairs. We will dive the pool in hot or cold weather. All our trained technicians have wet and dry suits.
If we determine the leak is outside of the pool (a major repair) we will at that time pinpoint the location of the leak and give you or your contractor a written price for the repair with a $100.00 discount.
We are not a pool maintenance or remodeling company that does leaks on the side. If the company you use can only find the leak, but can't repair the leak then they are not State Licensed. By finding the leak, the savings in your utility costs will end up paying for our service as well as put money back into your pocket instead of down the drain or leaking into the ground.

Vice President
Mike started in the pool industry over 5 years ago. He owned a large pool, spa service. Remodeling, and repair business in South Florida. He went into the leak detection business because he could not find a decent company to find his customers leaks. Since 1989 Mike has been perfecting his techniques and specializes only in finding leaks and leak repairs in swimming pools, spas and fountains. Some commercial pools (such as the Air Force pool) is as big as a lake. He has also done leak detections on the Marriott Lake Buena Vista Hotel. A very challenging pool leaks was in Bermuda. This was a multi-millionaire's private pool with a stone gratto and underwater speakers and windows to watch people swim. He found the leak in the speakers under the house and saved the homeowner a $30,000 water bill. Why settle for less when you can use the best.

Had a leak, thought nothing but bad thoughts called this company and they responded quickly and fixed my pool leak in one visit, Problem was solved in one visit for a very reasonable price. Did have one minor problem which they fixed in less than 30 min. All technicians were knowledgeable, courteous, and friendly. Highly recommended. from Minneola.

So they came out and send a tech that doesn't even speak English. Had a very hard time communicating with him. They are very happy to take your money. In their quote it says if you have any questions to call and they would be happy to answer them. I called to ask how they were going to go about fixing the leak on my sheer descent. I asked are you going to cut hole in deck or dig behind the pool.
They said they didn't know. I have made several phone calls and e-mails. They are ghosting me. Stay as far away as possible from these people. When I did make phone calls they said they would make it a priority to get back to me. It's been a week and a half. Goes to show you where their priorities are. Don't even know how they are still in business. They should return my payment since they don't want to finish the job they started. I will be letting pinch a Penny know what they have done to me and also Nextdoor as well.

My pool was leaking last year when I call them. They came out twice and never fixed the issue. The technician cannot hear or speak so I was unable to communicate with him. They sent a report where they fixed a leak between the tiles and on the wall but the pool is loosing water up to the first stair. Due to Covid19, the pool wasn't used. No one was at the pool all year long and the water level kept getting lower and lower.
It means that they never fixed or Detected the problem. I paid over 3 hundred dollars. Today, they are suppose to be here again to resolve this issue. What discount are you talking about? I still paid $ 315.00 again to fix a leak behind the light. I am not sure how there was a leak behind the light of the pool. If you came out in November 2020 to today, it is 16 months. The pool not suppose to leak within months. The first time the issue was not taken care off.

I had a technician come out 2 days ago to detect leak in pool. Although he did what he could, Pool continued to be losing water continuously. Therefore I called again, they came out & sent WILFREDO who did a spectacular job. He seals many cracks founded by SPA explained in detail how spa jets & check valve works, took his time. Very charming detailed & professional technician. I would highly recommend company. Technician was superb.

These guys are super! I had another company check my pool for$350 and was told I needed more than $9000 worth of repair work, but would get a $100 if I signed that day. I was skeptical and finally called these folks. They came for $195.00 and did some repair on the spot and instructed us on how to do the remainder of the work for $600.00. I have been blessed!

Having a lot of issue with Florida Leak Locators right now. They have been out multiple times and my pool is still loosing water a a significant rate. The first time they came out they diagnose a issue and came back out to fix what they found and were happy to charge me. When I noticed the pool was still leaking I called them back and they said they would have someone out that week but wouldn't give a time.
Someone finally did come out and they found a new issue they had missed the first time and fixed it (my confidence in them is eroding) and then found something that they don't cover, leaking from the pool tiles. A few weeks later the water is still leaking very quickly even below the tiles so I conducted a bucket test twice with the same results, pool is leaking.

They came out, check everything, and found the leak. Simple, but annoying, crack that was forming in the skimmer. So they patched that up and even patched a few other areas just to be sure around it. The tech was great and walked me through the whole process and even gave some tips for future use. The pool has been great and has maintained it's level ever since.
Would highly recommend and would use again in a sec....though I hope we don't have to ;)
Description of work:
We had leak in pool, but for life of us we couldn't figure out where. So we had our home warranty folks send a local pool company out to check. They were useless, but ironically they did leave the name of Florida Leak Locators. We call them and were impressed from start. So we had them scheduled to come out and to do a full leak inspection of pool.

From the moment they picked up the phone to the moment the technician left, Florida Leak Locators were professional, knowledgeable, and capable. They saved us a ton of money and came out quickly for our pool leak. I have SO many horror stories from years past with repairmen. These guys were a dream to work with! I definitely recommend them!
Dennis Dailey
Initially the office staff gave instructions to fill the pool to normal levels but the technician doing the work told me it would have been easier to fix our pool leak if I had left the pool empty. It would be great if they were talking to each other. In spite of this initial snafu, the technician found to source of the leak and fixed it. After it started leaking again, they quickly scheduled a return visit and fixed it again. I would definitely recommend this company for their expertise in finding and fixing pool leaks.
Ralph Balbo
A completely painless experience. The technician arrive as scheduled and found the leak within minutes. He continued a very thorough review of all drains and inlet pipes from pool edge and then underwater for those submerged. I have recommended Florida Leak Detectors to my fellow Pool owners in our community.
Outstanding.

I was very satisfied with Leak Finders. They were professional, friendly, and explained everything they were doing and kept to the fee quoted me via telephone when scheduling appointment. And so far no more adding water to pool. I strongly recommend them for your pool leak problems. In fact, I have recommended them to my neighbors.
