What a pool specialist can do for you.
Each service has its own specialists. Read what the work involves, what to ask, and who offers it near you.
Leak detection
Leak detection is the work of finding exactly where a pool loses water: through the shell, a fitting, the pipework or the equipment. It suits owners and managers who see the level dropping faster than evaporation explains and want the fault located before anyone breaks tiles or opens a deck.

Pressure testing
Pressure testing isolates each pipe in a pool's circulation system and pressurises it to prove whether that line holds or leaks. It tells a specialist which buried pipe is at fault and is usually part of a wider leak search.

20 specialists
Full renovation
A full renovation renews a pool's shell, waterproofing, finish and equipment in one project. It suits pools where problems overlap, such as leaks, failing tiles and old plant, and where fixing them one at a time would mean opening the same areas twice.
47 specialists
