As the weather warms up in the Orlando and Atlanta area, many insurance adjusters are getting phone calls about their client pool or spa leaking water. The first step is to contact a professional leak detection company for efficient and effective service, the longer a leak is left un-repaired, the more damage and cost it will accumulate.

Our qualified technicians know about soil issues, cracks in plaster, faulty equipment, cracks in plastic pipes and concrete.

Many homeowners in the Atlanta area are claiming to have pool damage from ice and the harsh winter. When in fact upon inspection of the pool we found the pool was not properly winterized and the damage was not caused by an isolated incident, but by improper care by the homeowner. Our inspection found:
The pool itself had debris in it and on the cover, signs the pool was not properly maintained during the off-season.
The steps were not covered with water and had small cracks on the top.
The return fittings and outlets were not removed before the harsh winter.
The liner of the swimming pool seemed to be pulling away from the wall.
It wasn’t as simple as the ice that caused the damage, but improper care and winterization. When it comes to insurance claims for residential and community swimming pools, without a qualified technician it can difficult to have an accurate report.
