Pool Leak Detection in Austin, TX

If your Austin pool is dropping faster than the summer heat can explain, you likely have a leak, and the first step is finding it. Gold Star provides professional pool leak detection across Austin, locating the source precisely so the repair is targeted, not exploratory.

Why Austin pools spring hidden leaks

Austin's limestone and caliche ground shifts with the seasons, quietly stressing pool shells and the plumbing buried beneath your deck. Combined with long, hot summers and the occasional hard freeze, that movement opens leaks you can't see, and with Austin's rising water rates, even a slow leak gets expensive fast.

• Caliche and limestone ground movement that cracks shells and shears lines
• Older central-Austin pools running on decades-old plumbing and fittings
• Hot summers that make a real leak hard to separate from evaporation

How we find your Austin leak

We work in layers, visual inspection, a bucket test to rule out evaporation, pressure testing of each plumbing line, dye testing at fittings and the shell, and electronic listening to walk the leak to within inches. You get a written finding, not a guess. For the full breakdown, see our guide to how pool leak detection works.

What Austin homeowners can expect

Most Austin detections are completed in a single visit, with the pool full and equipment running. You'll receive a clear explanation of where the leak is and a repair proposal before any further work begins.

Austin pool leak detection FAQ

How much water loss means my Austin pool is leaking?

More than about a quarter-inch a day beyond normal evaporation usually points to a leak, a quick bucket test helps confirm before we come out.

Do you have to drain my pool to find the leak?

No. We detect with the pool full and the system running, which is essential for accurate pressure and acoustic testing.
