Our swimming pool leak detection surveys in Lanzarote go beyond simply confirming that a leak is present. Unlike other companies that only identify which section is affected, Canary Detect pinpoints the exact position of the leak using multiple detection methods, so you know precisely what needs repairing before a single tile is lifted.
Is Your Swimming Pool Losing Water?
If your pool water level is dropping day after day, it may not always be down to evaporation. Lanzarote's climate does cause some natural water loss, but anything beyond 1 to 2mm per day typically points to a hidden leak somewhere in your pool structure or plumbing systems.
Our guide on how to tell if your pool has a leak walks through every check step-by-step. The simplest is the bucket test: fill a bucket with pool water and leave it on a pool step. After 24 hours, compare the water level inside the bucket with the pool water level. If the pool drops more than the bucket, you almost certainly have a leak rather than evaporation. A water meter check is another useful step: turn off all pool equipment and monitor the meter. If it continues to move, water is escaping somewhere in the system.
Other signs to watch for include: a pool level that keeps falling even after topping up; unexpectedly high water bills; damp ground or sinkholes around the pool area; loose or lifting tiles; and pool equipment struggling to maintain prime. If you notice any of these warning signs, arranging professional pool leak detection promptly will prevent the leak problem from developing into costly structural damage.
No Costly Excavation Work Without a Confirmed Target
One of the main reasons property owners and managers choose Canary Detect is our ability to find hidden leaks fast before any digging begins. Our approach means we never carry out costly excavation work or start breaking walls until we know the exact leak location.
This avoids unnecessary disruption to your property, keeps repair costs down, and gives the repair team a confirmed target rather than guesswork. For occupied villas and holiday properties in Lanzarote, minimising disruption is essential, and our detection and repair process is designed to deliver precisely that.
Where leaks need immediate attention, we advise you clearly. Where a leak is slow and can be monitored, we provide expert advice on timing so you can plan repairs at a convenient time.
What Does Pool Leak Detection Cost in Lanzarote?
We operate with transparent pricing. The leak detection cost for a swimming pool survey depends on the pool size and complexity of your plumbing systems, but you will always receive a clear quote before work begins.
If you are weighing up the detection cost against simply continuing to top up the pool, consider what water loss is actually costing you each week. For most pools with an active leak, the cost of a professional leak detection service is recovered within a few weeks of water saved, and that is before taking into account the cost of preventing structural damage and avoiding expensive repair solutions further down the line.
After the Survey: Repair Solutions and Insurance Claims
Every pool leak detection survey includes a detailed professional report documenting the survey method, leak locations found, and recommended repair solutions. This report is formatted to support insurance claims, which is frequently required for properties in Lanzarote.
The repair process is entirely your choice. You are free to use your own repair contractor to repair leaks once they have been located, or our plumbing services team can manage the complete detection and repair process from start to finish. Either way, you receive a clear, accurate survey that tells your pool leak repair team exactly where to work, saving time and avoiding unnecessary costs.
