Before you turn anything on
If your equipment pad flooded, have the equipment and electrical checked before you run the pump. Remove heavy debris from the pool so it does not damage the surface or the drain covers.
What to look for
- Cracks in the deck, or pavers that have sunk or lifted
- Tile or coping that has separated from the pool
- A skimmer that has pulled away from the pool wall
- Cracks in the pool shell or plaster
- Leaks, cracks or loose fittings at the equipment pad
Signs of a hidden leak after the storm
Once the pool is back to normal, track the water level. Losing more than 1/4 inch a day, or needing to add water and salt more often than before the storm, points to a leak. A bucket test is a good first step.
Repaired after the storm and still losing water?
Post-storm repairs often fix what is visible while an underground line or fitting keeps leaking. A full leak detection plumbing tests every line and dye tests the shell, so nothing is missed.
Document everything
Take photos of damage before cleanup. A written leak detection report shows exactly where the pool is leaking and what was tested, which is useful for your records and any claim you file.
