Tampa Bay & Sarasota (727) 467-0078Why Choose Us
Skill and technology. That’s the difference.
Most leak companies subscribe to the industry’s basic testing and repair methods. We invented our own. Anyone can find some leaks — the difference is what happens next. Our master-level technicians understand the true nature of the problem, so you get the most efficient fix, not the most expensive one.
The Skill
Master-Level Diagnostics
Like a mechanic who diagnoses and repairs instead of selling you a new car. Our reports run 2–3× more detailed than the industry norm — covering your pool’s current condition and future concerns.
The Technology
Repairs Others Can’t Do
Proprietary methods like Deck Saver™ internal pipe repair fix the problem without tearing your pool apart — most repairs done underwater, no draining, no demolition.
A Recent Job — True Story
A pool franchise owner bid over $10,000 to rebuild a leaking spa. We found the actual leak and fixed it — for a couple hundred dollars. That’s what the right diagnosis is worth.
The three-step
inspection. Every single time.
Every job follows the same proven protocol — visual review, above-water diagnostics, then the underwater dive. Nothing skipped, nothing guessed.
-
01Step OneOn Arrival
We begin with a walk-around — labeling every plumbing run, noting the issues you've observed, and documenting the full system before any testing begins. No surprises, no missed features.
-
02Step TwoAbove Water
Every accessible pipe, fixture, and equipment component that can be reached from the deck is isolated and pressure-tested — methodically ruling lines in or out before we ever get wet.
-
03Step ThreeUnderwater
Our technician dives in and systematically tests everything that can't be reached from the deck. Minor repairs are completed on the spot — bigger ones get a written estimate and warranty before we leave.
It all ends with a detailed written report on your pool's current condition and future concerns — typically 2–3× more thorough than the industry standard.
Repairs other companies can’t offer.
Leak detection and repair for pools and spas across Tampa Bay, Sarasota & St Pete — built on proprietary methods we developed ourselves. Most repairs happen underwater, with no draining and no demolition.
Deck Saver™ Internal Pipe Repair
Our patented flagship — think of it as angioplasty for your pool plumbing. We permanently seal underground pipe breaks from inside the pipe, so your deck, pavers, and pool floor stay untouched. No jackhammer, no scars, no re-landscaping. We’re the only company in the world that offers it.
US Patent 7,717,137 B2 Deck stays intact 5-year warranty Explore the method → Pinpoint Access · PreciseArthroscopic Pipe Repair
When a break truly requires deck access — tees, full separations, crushed pipe — we go in through a small, surgical opening instead of trenching, then re-texture the patch so it virtually disappears.
Minimal footprint Seamless texturing Learn more → Structural Cracks · Wall & FloorKeyed Gasket-Way™ Crack Repair
For cracks that move, we diamond-cut a keyed channel and fill it with our color-blended 600%-elongation silicone — a permanent seal that flexes with the shell instead of re-cracking.
Flexes, won’t re-crack Color-matched Learn more → Tile-Line Leaks · No RetilingTile-Saver™ Crack Injection
The only permanent fix for leaking tile-line separations that doesn’t mean expensive retiling. Flexible expanding resin is injected deep into the crack, sealing it from the inside out.

The most expensive thing in your yard? Probably your pool.
A running leak doesn’t just waste water. It throws off your pool chemistry, erodes the soil under your deck, and quietly works on your shell and equipment. A typical leak costs $50–$200 a month in water, chemicals, and secondary damage — and a large one runs into the thousands.
The good news: most detections pay for themselves in under six months. You get one visit, one written diagnosis, and one set of warranties — from the same master-level technicians, with none of the “drain it and replace everything” sales pitch.
Pays for itself fast
Stopping a $50–$200/month leak means most detections recoup their cost within six months — before the damage compounds.
No high-pressure upsells
One written diagnosis with clear options — never a “just redo the whole spa” pitch for a problem a couple hundred dollars can fix.
No unnecessary demolition
Most repairs happen underwater or through the deck with our patented method — no draining, no jackhammered patios.
One customer was quoted five figures to rebuild a spa. The real fix — found by our diagnostics — cost a couple hundred dollars.

Had a leak under the paver deck behind our waterfall pool return… My concern was that there was a crack in the waterfall assembly which would have required tearing it out and rebuilding that area of the pool. Troy found that the pool wall grout was compromised and leaking, and he regrouted the tile. Whew! Dodged a $4,000 repair with next-day service.

Troy is a true professional. On time, does what he says, and his fees are usually less than estimated. I would recommend him to anyone needing leak detection on their pool. — Dan, Sarasota.

We had three other pool companies come out and they could not fix our issue. Troy was able to fix it within minutes of looking at our problem. He is very responsive. Thank you for your help! We highly recommend Advanced Leak Detection.
