 The  skimmer neck is the narrowed section of the skimmer box where the face  plate or lid connects, allowing water to flow into the skimmer. If the  skimmer neck is damaged, a plaster skimmer repair is typically the most  effective solution. While some companies use polyurethane grout  injection, we’ve found that this method can damage the plastic skimmer  body—often leading to the need for a full skimmer replacement, which is a  significantly more expensive repair.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@hotspotleakdetections.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Common signs of a commercial pool leak include unexplained water loss, frequent need to add water, rising commercial water bills, wet spots around the pool or equipment room, air in the plumbing system, or difficulty maintaining proper water levels. These are strong indicators taht professional pool leak detection may be needed. 


Normal commercial pool water loss due to evaporation typically accounts for 1/4 inch per day depending on weather and usage. Anything beyond this may signal a swimming pool leak and should be evaluated by a pool leak detection company. 


Yes. A hidden commercial swimming pool leak can waste thousands of gallons of water per month, significantly increasing water, heating, and chemical costs-especially in high-use commercial pools. Early leak detection for commercial pools helps control operating expenses. 


Most commercial pool leaks are found in:

  • Underground pool plumbing lines
  • Main drains and suction lines
  • Skimmers and returns 
  • Hydrostatic valves
  • Structural cracks
  • Equipment pads and valves


Not always. Our commercial pool leak detection services often locate leaks with the pool full using advanced electronic listening equipment, pressure testing, and dye testing. Draining is only recommended when absolutely necessary. 


No. Professional leak detection is non-invasive. Our methods locate the leak precisely to minimize or eliminate unnecessary demolition. 


Most inspections are completed withing an hour or so, depending on pool size, plumbing complexity, and whether multiple systems are involved. 


We specialize in locating the leak and providing a detailed report. Repairs can often be completed by your maintenance team or a licensed contractor using our findings. 


Undetected leaks can lead to:

  • Structural damage
  • Soil erosion
  • Deck and foundation issues
  • Pool closures and liability risks

Early detection saves time, money, and downtime.


Property managers, HOA boards, hotels, fitness centers, schools, municipalities, and apartment complexes should schedule leak detection at the first sign of abnormal water loss.
