Types of Pool and its condition

If you have an above-ground pool,then the logical suspicion area of theleak would be the lining of the pool.Walk around the perimeter of the pooland check for wet areas on both theoutside wall of the pool and theground surrounding the pool. If anyareas are particularly wet or mushy, orthere is dead or dying vegetation nearone section of the pool, then you haveprobable cause to suspect a leak inthat area.

If you have an in-ground pool,you can do a similar inspectionby walking the deck and generalperimeter of the pool. In thiscase, a leak from the tile insidethe pool won't be as obvious socarefully check for unusuallywet spots or mushy areas in thelandscaping. Also, check forvegetation that isn't doing sowell compared to the rest ofyour landscaping.

Finding and repairing the exact site of the pool leakdetection, however, is best left in the hands of aprofessional. Remember to have cleaned your poolbefore the professional arrives. Having debris,whether twigs and leaves or mold or algae or otherstuff you don't want in your pool, can sometimescause it to collect along the edges of the pool whichcan cover up holes and make it harder for theprofessional to detect them.
