We were initially satisfied with their work finding a leak and fixing it (although it seemed a bit expensive but we realized they need a lot of specialized equipment). Then we had an additional leak in our yard that we were pretty sure was caused by a pool return leak. He came out again and assured me it was the sprinkler system. I called the sprinkler guy out and he performed multiple tests and determined it was not the sprinklers. I was so frustrated I had a plumber come out (for $350) to determine it was indeed a pool return leak but traditional plumbers are not licensed to repair pool equipment. After I had the pool guys out again to look at it they agreed it was a broken return. Unfortunately, it's located right under a 50 year old live oak tree and hard to get to. They did not seem interested in helping me find ways to repair the line and said it could take three days to repair. That sounded really expensive so I'm going with someone else.
Description of Work
He performed a leak test on the pool for $450 and found that it was in good shape but had a couple of small leaks. We had him out to repair one leak at a cost of $1200.

The pool was checked thoroughly and leaks were found in the skimmers.
They were repaired for a nominal amount and are holding up well. Jim called me and explained what he found in detail and we discussed the type of repairs that could be chosen. This was a great experience and I would use them again anytime.

The provider spent considerable time checking the pool using various methods. He could not locate the problem but suspected it came from under the coping as our dog alerted on that spot. He performed a stop-gap solution which did not stem the water loss. We were later able to locate the leak far below the surface where he had suspected the leak was located. Our concern was the cost charged for no actual solution.

Actually called a few days earlier than scheduled and said he was finished with a local job earlier than planned and was able to check my pool which was great for me. He found a leak near a pool wall jet and repaired it. No more leakage (I was losing 1/2 inch/day). Prompt friendly and very cost efficient.
Description of Work
Checked all plumbing, valves and equipment as well as the pool and spa structure for leaks.

I was so concerned having heard from other people about having pool leaks repaired. Jim spent the entire day here and found multiple leaks in my pool and around my equipement.
He dug around my equipment and found leaks which he repaired, he then found leaks in both skimmers which he repaired and also worked around the jets. He noted that the repair he did in the skimmers probably won't be the last time they need attention, but was very honest and upfront about what he did and what will be needed, if they need additional work. He was pretty close to his estimate and very fairly priced. Jim worked all day and I never saw him stop. He cleaned everything up and you could not even tell he had been here other than all the leaks stopped! I would use Jim again and would recommend him to all my family and friends. Pleasure doing business with someone like Jim!
Description of Work
My was leaking pretty badly so I called All Tech Leak Detection based on reading the reviews here on Angie's List. Jim took my call and gave an estimate over the phone based on what I described about the leaking. He showed up on time and spent almost the entire day here looking for leaks.
Throughout the day, as he found the leaks, he would show me what was going on. He worked outside of the pool and then went diving.

They did a great job.
He actually did the work in less time than he estimated, which saved us money. One of the broken lines was in a terrible place and required removing dirt and concrete. We probably wouldn't have found the second broken line if it wasn't for his expertise and the equipment that he had.

If you have a swimming pool leak, they actually have a service out there where people dive he pool in wet suits or dry suits to check all of the light fixtures and the jets and the swimmer is looking for leaks. When you to keep stocking up your swimming pool all winter and it is covered and its cold, you shouldn't be losing water because it is not evaporating it's a sign that you're losing water somewhere. They pretty much came when I wanted. I'm single and people do work around my schedule quite a bit. He came out, put his scuba gear on, dives the pool and checks everything out and gives a report on where my leak is.
They gave me choice of fixing the main drain for $1000 plus for digging and checking or we could plug it for $20. I was like $20 vs. a $1000 plus, I think it would be the $20 treatment. It was kind of nice because if they had $1000 I would have had to go along with it. The charge was actually $475 but the fix, there was leak from the main drain which would have involved snapping a deck, digging a hole, searching for the leak in the pipe which may or may not have been under the in ground pool and that could have been around a $1000 plus or that I can just put 2 plugs in the 2 drains in the pool and that would take care of it. I said and ldquo;you know what let's just put the $20 plug inand rdquo;. They gave me options and if I ever wanted to do it right, dig that $100 hole and try and find it. I can always to do it if I win a lottery. I would recommend them to others. He was early, professional. The price I have no idea how to compare. I have never done this before, it takes about 6 hours and $475 seemed I guess reasonable.

Found and repaired a leak in pool/spa. Needed a part to finish job and that took a bit longer than I thought. When finished job, there was still a leak and it took them longer to come out than I thought it should, but they did come out and fix it at no additional charge.
They did a great job and did what they said they would do. It just took a bit longer than it should have. I would use them again and would recommend them to others.

He did what I asked him to do. I think he is a little pricey since he doesn't actually fix anything and just told me that it was leaking. I probably could have gotten it done by somebody who was going to fix it cheaper.

Jim Ralls came out within a day of my phone call and thoroughly checked my pool for the source of a known leak. It was clear he had experience and understood his job quite well. He also explained as much to me as I wanted to know, in detail. He was professional and intelligent. He upgraded our drains to anti-vortex (there was no pressure to do so), as well as replaced a couple of valves and the o-ring on the chlorinator. The pool is almost 15 years old, so this was not a surprise. He gave me no surprises and explained everything that was needed and why He gave me excellent advice on who to call out to help with re-doing the pool. Our leak involved degraded mortar joint in our pool, and as our plaster has outlived its lifespan, we decided just to get the plaster, tile and coping all redone at once.
I was left with a very detailed, thorough report of his findings, what he had done, and what he recommended.. First class!
Description of Work
The system was plugged up and pressure tested. Leak was located, two valves replaced, 4 drain covers replaced with anti-vortex covers for safety, leaking area was given a temporary fix to slow leak, flows were adjusted to minimize additional leakage, a poor seal on the suction side of the pump was found to be sucking in air, and a final report was drawn up with solid recommendations.

When you schedule your plumbing installation and piping services with plumbers of our caliber, you can count on getting a dependable, effective performance from that system.
What you cannot reasonably expect, though, is that you will never encounter a problem with your plumbing system. Your plumbing system can never be 100% reliable, and it is very possible that it may develop a leak or two at some point. If and when your system does spring a leak, remember to schedule leak detection services in Ashburn, VA with the pros on our staff.
When a leak does develop somewhere in your plumbing system, there is no guarantee that it is going to surface in a visible or easily accessible area. Even very "minor" leaks, of course, can cause serious water damage and waste a considerable amount of water over time. That is why professional leak detection is such a valuable service. When you enlist the help of the plumbers at AllTech Services, Inc., you can count on your leak being pinpointed and resolved in a timely fashion.

Before you will realistically contact a member of our staff in order to schedule leak detection services in Ashburn, VA, you must first recognize the potential of a leak present in your home.
There are a number of different warning signs that you may notice, provided you know what to look—and listen—for. For instance, you may see an inexplicable spike in your water bills. Perhaps you can hear the sound of running water, even when there is none in use in your home. If you smell mildew or see mold developing in your home, it could be the result of damp conditions in your home due to a water leak. Of course, the most obvious sign is pooling water, but it is not always this simple.
There are a few methods by which a professional plumber may pinpoint the source of a leak in your plumbing system, but the most common and generally most effective is by using listening equipment. We don’t mean sticking a glass to the wall and pressing our ear against it, or swiping a stethoscope from the doctor’s office, either. There is specialized ultrasonic leak detection equipment that allows plumbers to listen to the sound of a leak in the system, and to really narrow down its location.
If you suspect that you have a leak in your system, hiring a professional to complete this service really is invaluable.
There are a number of benefits that you’ll enjoy when you enlist our help in detecting leaks in your plumbing system. First of all, by using our leak detection equipment to get a good handle on where the leak in the system is located, we can eliminate a lot of the guesswork that would otherwise be necessary. This in turn limits any disruption to your property, and keeps the amount of time needed to actually resolve the problem to a minimum. It also means that you face a lower risk of suffering serious water damage in your home, and that you won’t be paying for wasted water for as long. If you think your system has sprung a leak, give us a call right away.

The leak detection system (LDS) on the pipeline allows you to quickly detect the fact of a leak and determine the time and place of its occurrence.
Timely detection can significantly reduce the response time of emergency services and, as a result, significantly reduce environmental damage from spills of pumped products.
A leak detection system is a set of software and hardware tools that processes information from sensors located on a pipeline in real time in order to detect the fact of a leak (leak) and determine the place and time of a leak.
The system uses several methods for detecting leaks:
The pressure wave leak detection method is used to quickly detect small volume leaks with high accuracy.
The main idea of the method is to analyze the propagation of pressure drop waves in a pipeline. To register pressure waves, the controlled telemechanics station is equipped with two SOU pressure sensors connected to the leak detection unit.
The unit analyzes the signals from the sensors, detects pressure drop waves and determines their direction and travel time.
The use of a GPS receiver for time synchronization makes it possible to achieve the highest accuracy in recording the moment of wave passage. Information about the detected waves is delivered to the control point by means of a telemechanics system. The SDA server analyzes the received information and, by the nature of wave propagation in the pipeline, determines the fact of a leak, the time of its occurrence and the exact coordinate.
Volume balance and pressure profile analysis methods belong to the group of parametric methods. They use information from flow and pressure sensors located on the pipeline and do not require the installation of any additional equipment. These methods make it possible to detect the fact and location of leaks of large and medium volumes based on the analysis of changes in process parameters.
Extremely low energy consumption
Leak detection units are designed to work in non-volatile systems and have extremely low power consumption
Operation in extremely severe climatic conditions
The GPS receiver used in conjunction with the leak detection unit has a design that allows its operation in the extremely severe climatic conditions of the Far North
Increased reliability and elimination of "false" leaks
A special algorithm for confirming the operation of the SDA allows you to increase the reliability of operation and eliminate the definition of "false" leaks
Possibility of integration into the system of linear telemechanics
The system can be integrated into the pipeline's linear remote control system.
Organization of separate communication channels for data transfer is not required
Accumulation of measurement data of technological parameters
The system allows the accumulation of measurement data of technological parameters and their transmission by information blocks
Different ways to place blocks
Leak detection units have designs that allow their placement both separately and as expansion modules in telemechanics controllers
Special software
The system includes special software for modeling the operation of the JCS with specified parameters based on historical data

Causes of Leaks
Today, pipelines are one of the most cost-effective, reliable and safe ways to transport gas, oil, oil products and finished products over long distances. However, pipeline systems operate in difficult geodetic and weather conditions, and despite the fact that they are designed for an average of 20-25 years, in practice they last longer and often without repair.
In the process of aging, various damages to pipelines occur: cracks and corrosion appear in structurally vulnerable joints, which inevitably leads to leaks.
