James from Plumbdog is in Inglewood, WA, chasing down a tricky pool leak that had stumped three other leak detectors before him. The homeowner suspected the newly installed pool light might be the culprit — and James wastes no time putting that theory to the test.
The Problem
Despite recent installation work, the pool was losing water and the source wasn’t obvious. Challenges included:
•Previous leak detectors couldn’t locate the problem
•Multiple potential leak points around the pool light
•Small leaks hidden in screw holes from both old and new fittings
The Fix
James got straight to work:
•Dye testing to pinpoint water escaping from the pool light area
•Identified multiple leaks around screws from both old and new fittings
•Sealed leaks using marine-grade putty for a watertight result
•Tested repair to ensure the pool was leak-free before refilling
“Sometimes the problem isn’t where you’d expect. Precision and experience are key to finding hidden leaks like this.”
The Result
•Pool leak located and sealed successfully
•No further water loss detected
•Professional, long-term solution using marine-grade materials
•Homeowner reassured with a fully functioning pool
