Alan
Leak Specialist
Joined ALD in 2017
Joining the team in February 2017, Alan has extensive experience in problem solving for household issues and he was a fast learner in finding leaks. Although he was born in Miami, Alan traveled extensively growing up. His mother was a “traveling nurse” so he lived in numerous interesting destinations including Rotterdam in the Netherlands. He considers himself an “outdoorsman” and especially enjoys his motorcycle and fishing as well as his “beautiful” pit bull mix, Sarge. When asked what he most likes about working with American Leak Detection he says that he loves being able to help people, it is fun to make a difference by solving people’s problems.
Dan
Leak Specialist
Joined ALD in 2003
Prior to joining the team Dan had his own pressure cleaning business. In September 2003, after cleaning Karen’s father’s roof, he got recruited to the team. Dan moved to Florida from Pennsylvania in 1998, of course for the weather. While he was still living north he attended Ursinus College to study Business Management. He took up an interesting job as an Anesthesia equipment technician. In his free time, he thoroughly enjoys racing radio controlled gas cars on a quarter mile track that he built himself in his back yard. The best part though is watching his Rottweiler join the race trying to eat the cars! Dan also enjoys lifting weights and checking out those hard earned muscles in the mirror. Well, that last part was a wild guess but he can’t decide whether he likes working his chest or biceps more.
Danny
Leak Specialist
Joined ALD in 2001
If Danny makes a visit to your pool, you may find yourself trying to guess just where that accent came from. Danny was born and raised in Oldham, England. He came to the states for the sunshine, opportunity, and the friendlier people. Apparently, his expectations were met because he has now been with us since February 2001.
Freddy
Leak Specialist
Joined ALD in 1996
Our second longest team member is Freddy who came on board June 1996. Originally from Long Island, this New Yorker decided to move to sunny South Florida back in 1995. It proved to be a good move for Freddy for he found his wife of 13 years and has a beautiful daughter. What might be most interesting about Fred is his passion to collect old and new action figures which are mostly bought and sold in Europe. When it’s too nice to be inside, you can find Freddy cruising on his custom Honda motorcycle.
Neill
Leak Specialist
Joined ALD in 2006
Surprisingly, we have another England native, Neill, who came to us from London and started with us December 2006. He moved to the U.S. in 1993 as a youngster. In high school, Neill participated on the wrestling team that has lead to his interest in watching UFC fighting. This extremely demanding sport is not for the faint hearted. If you asked Neill what he likes about himself the most, he would most likely tell you his good looks and exuberant personality.
