Serving the Community

 

Sherlock Leak Detection understands the stress that a suspected leak can cause. That's why they encourage homeowners to use simple methods like the Bucket Test to initially check if their pool water loss is due to a leak or just normal evaporation. The Sherlock rule of thumb is that if you are regularly adding more than two inches of water to your pool per week, it may very well have a leak.

 

Whether you're concerned about a high water bill, notice unexplained cracks, or hear the sound of running water when everything is off, the team at Sherlock Leak Detection is committed to providing accurate reports and repair plans, ensuring the longevity of your property.
