Long Beach Pool Pros provides professional leak detection & structural repair in Long Beach, CA for residential and commercial properties across the South Bay and the Gateway Cities. Pool leak detection in Long Beach finds where your water is actually going, using bucket tests, dye testing, individual line pressure testing, and electronic listening equipment rather than guesswork and a shovel. We pinpoint the failure first so we open one small section of deck instead of trenching your yard, then repair it, from a reset skimmer to a structural gunite patch. Every pool loses water. Evaporation here runs somewhere around a quarter of an inch a day in summer and more on a hot, dry Santa Ana afternoon when the humidity crashes, and that is entirely normal. What is not normal is an autofill valve that runs constantly, a level that drops well past that baseline, a patch of lawn that is suspiciously lush and soft, or a persistent wet spot on the equipment pad. Those are leaks, and a leak is not a wait-and-see item. Water escaping under a shell washes out the sub-base it sits on, and washed-out sub-base is how a $600 plumbing repair becomes a five-figure structural problem inside a season. The diagnostic sequence is methodical. A bucket test separates evaporation from real loss, which is worth doing before anyone charges you for anything. Dye testing at the skimmer throat, light niche, main drain, return fittings, and any visible crack finds shell-side leaks. Isolating and pressure testing each plumbing line individually finds the buried ones and tells us which line to chase. Then electronic listening gear or a tracer trace narrows it to a spot rather than a stretch. The usual culprits, in rough order of frequency: cracked skimmer throats where the plastic meets the deck, failed light conduit, deteriorated return fittings, PVC joints separated by soil movement, and shell cracks. Repairs scale accordingly. Resetting a skimmer and re-tying the deck. Epoxying or replacing a light niche. Cutting and replacing a section of buried line, or rerouting it above ground where the original run was a bad idea. On the shell side: hydraulic cement for minor cracks, staple stitching across structural cracks to stop them propagating, and a gunite patch tied into the existing steel where the shell has genuinely failed. We tell you which category yours falls into, and what each option costs, before we start.

Materials, equipment and how we do leak detection & structural repair
The difference between leak detection & structural repair that lasts and leak detection & structural repair that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with gunite and shotcrete construction, PebbleTec and quartz interior finishes, travertine coping and glass waterline tile, variable-speed pumps and cartridge or DE filtration, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Long Beach job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of pool work in the South Bay and the Gateway Cities means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
