Swimming pool Leak Detections

​A leaky swimming pool can be one of the most difficult and expensive problems to resolve.  Undetected, leaks can become costly and may even lead to the need for additional pool repairs.  

​Trusting your pool to an untrained leak repair company can have you chasing the leak for months and cost more than it needs to.  Poolmax has the equipment and experience to find even the trickiest leaks and repair them.
