Swimming Pool Leak

In South Florida, swimming pools are nearly as common as air conditioners. But when pool equipment fails, lines crack, or shells deteriorate, the resulting water damage can be extensive. A pool leak can release thousands of gallons of water, saturating surrounding soil, undermining foundations, flooding garages, and damaging pool decks and structures.

Pool leaks present unique restoration challenges. The water is chemically treated with chlorine and other chemicals that can damage plants, corrode materials, and create different drying requirements than freshwater damage. Pool equipment areas are particularly vulnerable—heaters, pumps, and filters involve multiple water connections that can fail.

Many South Florida homes have pools located near the main structure, meaning pool leaks can travel under pool decks and into the home's foundation, garage, or living areas. Underground pipe failures are especially problematic, as water saturates soil for extended periods before visible signs appear.
