Is Your Pool Losing Water?..

"A leaking pool is a serious threat to your property’s foundation and your wallet. In the dry climate of the Costa Blanca, evaporation is normal, but structural leaks are not. At Aurea Luxe, we use nearly three decades of local construction knowledge to find and fix leaks where others fail."

Underwater Precision: Our Non-Invasive Detection Methods

"Finding a leak shouldn't mean destroying your pool. At Aurea Luxe, we use specialized underwater techniques to pinpoint the exact source of water loss without draining your pool or breaking tiles."

Professional Diving Inspections:

Our experts dive into your pool to inspect every inch of the structure, from the main drain to the lighting fixtures and suction lines.

Specialized Leak-Trace Fluids (Dye Testing):

We use a professional-grade, high-visibility tracer fluid. By injecting this harmless liquid near suspected areas, we can see exactly where the water is being sucked out. It’s the most accurate way to find structural cracks and seam failures in real-time.

FAQ Pool Leak Detection

Q: Do you need to drain my pool to find a leak?

A: No. In 95% of cases, we find the leak while the pool is full. Our team performs professional dives and uses specialized tracer fluids to identify the exit point of the water. This saves you thousands of liters of water and keeps your pool chemicals balanced.

Q: Is the leak-detection fluid dangerous for my family or the pump?

A: Not at all. We use a pH-neutral, biodegradable tracer dye specifically designed for swimming pools. It is completely harmless to humans, pets, and your filtration system, and it disappears shortly after the test is completed.

Q: How accurate is your underwater dye testing?

A: Extremely accurate. By using a specialized high-density tracer fluid while diving, we can see exactly where the water flow pulls the dye into a crack or seam. This "non-invasive" method allows us to pinpoint leaks in lights, skimmers, and tiles within millimeters, without ever needing to break a single stone..

Q: Can you find a leak if it is under the terrace or in the underground pipes?

A: Yes. If our underwater dye test shows the pool shell is tight, we move to Electronic Pressure Testing of the filtration lines. We can isolate every pipe—from the bottom drain to the return jets—to find hidden leaks beneath your terrace or garden without unnecessary digging.

Q: Can you just "cut out" a leaking section of a concrete pool and replace it with new material?

A: We strictly advise against this "partial replacement" method. After 29 years of repairing pools in the San Fulgencio region, we have seen that bonding old concrete to new concrete is not a long-term solution. A pool is a monolithic structure designed to hold immense weight. When you cut into it and pour new material, you create a "cold joint"—a weak point where the two materials never truly become one.

Q: Why do these partial repairs often fail after a short time?

A: It comes down to the immense power of water pressure. A standard pool holds thousands of liters of water, exerting constant hydraulic force against the walls. Because old and new concrete expand and contract at different rates due to temperature and moisture, the seam between them is under permanent stress. The relentless force of the water will eventually re-open these repairs, as it naturally finds and exploits the weakest point in the connection.

Q: How do you decide if a pool is "repairable" or needs to be rebuilt?

A: We perform a professional dive inspection and pressure testing of the lines first. If the leak is in a skimmer, a light, or a specific pipe, we can fix it. However, if the structural shell itself is compromised and requires removing large sections, we will be 100% honest: we do not recommend a partial repair. We believe in providing solutions that actually last another 20 to 30 years, not just a temporary patch.
