Lexington has grown fast, and so has the number of backyard pools, many of them vinyl liner pools installed in newer subdivisions along the US-378, Sunset Boulevard and Old Chapin Road corridors. The Leak Geeks helps Lexington homeowners figure out why their pool is losing water and fix it without unnecessary demolition.
Common Pool Leaks in Lexington
Newer construction doesn't mean leak-free. In Lexington we often find:
- Fitting leaks in vinyl pools. Return, skimmer and light gaskets that were never quite sealed or have dried out
- Plumbing separations where lines shifted as fresh backfill settled around a newer pool
- Liner punctures from roots, rocks or tools, often near steps and corners
- Plumbing leaks at unions and valves near the equipment pad
Is It a Leak or Evaporation?
Summer heat in Lexington County can pull about a quarter inch a day out of a pool. Before calling, try the bucket test: a bucket of pool water on the steps, both levels marked, compared after 24 hours. If the pool drops more than the bucket, call us. We'll measure the loss properly and tell you honestly if it's just evaporation.
How We Handle Lexington Pool Leaks
As a Leaktronics-certified technician with an engineering background and more than 40 years in construction, I test systematically: dye testing at every fitting, pressure testing line by line, and electronic listening to locate underground leaks. When we find the problem, we fix it: underwater liner patches, new gaskets, and trenchless pool plumbing repairs through a small access point.
Lake Murray Side of Lexington
