Pricing varies by pool, so call for a quote on the standard leak detection visit.

Stop guessing where the water is going
We follow the evidence with pressure testing, dye testing, and focused inspection, then explain what we found and the practical next step.
Pool Leak Detection for Magnolia
Find the source of the water loss before it becomes a bigger Magnolia problem
Magnolia's sandy Piney Woods soil drains a leak straight down, and pine roots reach every return line on an acre lot. If your pool is losing more than evaporation explains, Blue Science finds the source and quotes the repair separately.
Sand swallows the damp-spot clue, so we rely on pressure and dye testing rather than looking for water, and we show you the findings before proposing a repair.
Leak clues in a Magnolia pool
From the leak crew
Air in the pump basket, a level that drops faster with the pump running, a deck slab lifted by a root or settled into sand, or a jump in the water bill are the signs worth a call. Wells make the water-bill clue useless, so the bucket test below matters more here than in town.
Return fittings, skimmer throats, and older light niches are the usual sources under pines, and each is dye-tested during the visit.
Leak detection for Magnolia, Tomball, and Montgomery County
From the leak crew

Questions Magnolia Pool Owners Ask
How do I know it is a leak and not the weather?
Put a bucket of pool water on the step for a day and mark both levels. If the pool drops faster than the bucket, that difference is the leak. In North Texas I also ask when the yard last moved, because clay soil pulls skimmers away from the shell in a dry August.
Answered by a Blue Science leak technician, Greater HoustonWhy is my pool losing 1 inch of water a day?
It is almost certainly a leak. Evaporation in Magnolia peaks around half an inch a day in a dry, windy heat wave and drops to almost nothing in humid weather, so an inch a day, every day, means water is leaving through the plumbing or the shell, whatever Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms are doing. The clue is where the level stops: at the skimmer, the skimmer or a return is the suspect; below the lights, look at the light niche or the main drain line; all the way down, the shell has a crack, and 713-636-5751 gets the test scheduled. Our Magnolia leak detection visit starts at the equipment pad and works toward the shell, with Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms in mind, and repairs are quoted separately once the source is found.
How can I find out where my pool is leaking from?
Start at the equipment pad, because a dripping pump seal, a weeping filter tank, or a loose union is a repair rather than a leak, and Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms produce plenty of those. If the pad is dry, run the bucket test for 24 hours with the autofill off, then watch where the level stops: at the skimmer mouth points to the skimmer or a return line, below the light points to the niche or the main drain line, and a level that keeps falling points to the shell; in Magnolia our leak detection visit confirms it with pressure testing on the lines and dye at every fitting, as in all 27 cities we serve. Detection and repair are quoted separately in Magnolia, so you approve a defined fix; 713-636-5751 schedules both.
What is the easiest way to find a leak in a pool?
Rule out evaporation first, with a bucket. Mark the pool level and a bucket filled to match, wait a day with the autofill off, and compare; in Magnolia, Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms can push evaporation up, but the bucket shows exactly how much. Anything the pool loses beyond that is a leak, and the detection visit locates it with pressure on each line and dye at each fitting; 713-636-5751 books it. Our Magnolia visit repeats the bucket test with the pump off and on, which separates plumbing leaks from shell leaks, in all 27 cities.
What is the most common cause of pool leaks in Magnolia?
The skimmer, first and by a wide margin. The throat where the skimmer meets the shell moves every time the deck and the pool move differently, and in Magnolia, Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms keep them moving. Return fittings and light niches come next, then underground lines where a deck has settled, and shell cracks last; each shows a different pattern in the water level, and the dye test confirms it in minutes, as it has across 27 cities. In Magnolia a leak found at a fitting is usually a small repair; one under the deck is scoped in writing before any cutting, in all 27 cities.
Is it a leak or evaporation in Texas weather?
Evaporation depends on the weather, meaning Gulf humidity, pollen, and afternoon storms; a leak does not. In Magnolia the same conditions can push evaporation to about half an inch a day at the worst, and it slows in humid or cool weather, while a leak loses the same amount every day. If the loss is steady through a rainy week or a cool one, it is a leak, and the bucket test settles it in a day, the first step in every one of the 27 cities we serve.
