Detection and repair under one Florida Pool Contractor license, so the company that found the leak is the company accountable for fixing it.
There is a specific failure mode in this industry: one company finds the leak, a second company does the repair, and when the pool still loses water nobody owns the problem. The detection company says the repair was wrong. The repair company says the detection was wrong. The homeowner pays twice to find out.
Leak and Subsurface Locators holds Florida Pool Contractor License CPC1457277 and does both. One company diagnosed it, one company repaired it, and one company is accountable if the water level still drops.
Structural crack repair in gunite and concrete shells, including injection where appropriate.
Skimmer throat and body separation, one of the most common real sources of loss.
Conduit and niche sealing where water escapes behind the fixture rather than through the shell.
Repair at the fitting interface where the shell and plumbing meet.
Repair of pressure-tested lines that failed, at the located break rather than by trenching hopefully.
The pool can be retested after repair to confirm the loss actually stopped.
An underground plumbing repair costs what it costs to open the deck. The variable is how much deck gets opened. Electronic pipe locating followed by acoustic and trace gas confirmation is what makes the difference between cutting a small access point and exploratory demolition. Anyone can dig. The value is in digging once, in the right place.
How the detection fee relates to repair cost is a fair question and a common one. It is answered directly on the phone before scheduling, and any repair is quoted in writing before work begins.
