Common Causes of In-Ground Pool Leaks

Part of swimming pool ownership is knowing that at some point, it is more than likely that you’ll have to deal with a leak of some kind. Sometimes, leak prevention is within a pool owner’s direct control (i.e. regular pool maintenance), but many pool leaks are the result of factors that cannot be directly addressed by maintenance, such as shifting soil.

Other reasons you may have a pool leak include:

• Chemical imbalance
• Inclement weather / storm damage
• Tree roots
• Seismic pressure
• Dramatic temperature changes
• Aging pumps, fittings & seals

Leaks won’t fix themselves and will only get worse with time. When you have a leak, you need to address it as soon as possible by calling in our Indianapolis pool repair company. During your appointment, one of our highly trained and certified pool leak repair technicians will evaluate the situation and present you with an affordable solution.

How can I tell if my pool is leaking?

There are several ways to tell if your pool is leaking, including:

• Excessive debris in your pool - Excessive debris can clog up the skimmer and make it difficult for the pump to work properly.
• Difficulty maintaining pump prime - Water leaks can cause the pump prime to be lost, resulting in reduced performance or even complete pump failure.
• Abnormally high water bill - If you've noticed a sharp increase in your water bill, it could be a sign that you have a leak in your pool. Pool leaks can be hard to detect, as they often occur underground where you can't see them.
• Disproportionate algae growth - When a pool leaks, it not only lowers the water level, but it also concentrates the chlorine levels and other chemicals. This creates an ideal environment for algae to thrive. In addition, leaks can also introduce nutrients into the water, which provide food for algae growth.
• Flooded lawn and pooling water around your property - One of the most common signs of a pool leak is water settling around the perimeter of your pool. If the leak isn't fixed quickly, the pooling water can erode the surrounding soil, wash away mulch and landscaping, and even saturate the foundation of your home.
• Visual signs of cracks in your pool’s surface - When water leaks from the pool, it can cause the surrounding soil to shift and settle. This can put pressure on the pool’s walls and floor, causing the surface to crack. In addition, when water leaks from the pool, it can cause the water level to drop. This can also lead to cracking, as the weight of the water puts stress on the pool’s walls and floor.
• How long will pool repairs take? The duration of pool repairs can vary widely depending on the nature and complexity of the issue. Minor repairs such as fixing a leak or replacing a pump motor might be completed within a day or two. However, more extensive repairs like re-plastering the pool or replacing major equipment could take several days to weeks, especially if parts need to be ordered or specialized work is required. It's best to discuss the estimated timeline with your pool repair provider before proceeding.

How can I prevent future pool problems?

Preventing future pool problems involves regular maintenance and proactive care. Here are some tips:

• Winterize your pool: If you live in a climate where pools are closed for the winter, properly winterize your pool to protect it from freezing temperatures and potential damage.
• Maintain pool equipment: Schedule regular inspections and maintenance for pool pumps, heaters, and other equipment to ensure they are functioning properly and efficiently.
• Inspect for leaks: Check for leaks in pipes, fittings, and the pool structure regularly. Promptly repair any leaks to prevent water loss and potential structural damage.
• Clean filters and skimmers: Regularly clean and backwash filters to ensure proper filtration and prevent clogging.
• Monitor water chemistry: Test and balance your pool's pH, chlorine levels, alkalinity, and calcium hardness regularly to prevent corrosion, scaling, and algae growth.
