Why Pool Leak Detection and Maintenance is Important in the Costa del Sol?
Water scarcity has become a serious concern across the Costa del Sol, with drought conditions leading to restrictions on pool filling and water usage in Málaga province.
At the same time, many pools lose water through hidden leaks that go unnoticed for months, wasting thousands of liters and causing structural damage over time.
In fact, industry data suggests that roughly 20% of residential pools are leaking at any given time, making professional detection an essential step for both property maintenance and due diligence.

Our team follows a meticulous, step-by-step diagnostic process using state of the art diagnostic equipment to find the exact source of your water and chemical loss. Saving property owners time and money by preventing destructive, unnecessary guesswork and excavation.
Diagnostic & Detection Services (Leak pinpointing, Pre-purchase audits)
Digital Leak Confirmation: We use, high-tech digital sensors to differentiate between normal evaporation and an active leak in minutes, establishing an exact baseline of your pool's daily water loss.
Professional Pool Shell Diving & Visual Inspections: We dive directly into your pool to thoroughly inspect the full pool shell, structural tile lines, main drains, skimmers, and light fixtures underwater using specialized cameras and pool dyes to track down hidden structural fissures.
Plumbing Pressure and Vacuum Testing: By isolating and pressurizing or Vaccuum testing your pool’s underground plumbing lines, we can definitively prove whether a pipe is broken and which line is at fault.
Acoustic Locating: Using advanced underground microphones and hydrophones we pinpoint the exact coordinate of the underground or underwater breach by listening for escaping air or tracking micro-currents.
Comprehensive Diagnosis & Reporting: Once the leak is found, you will receive a transparent, detailed report outlining our findings, complete with the location and our recommended next steps for repair.
