There is nothing quite like a backyard pool during a blazing Utah summer—until you notice the water level dropping rapidly. A leaking pool isn’t just an annoyance; if left unchecked, pressurized water escaping into the soil can wash away the dirt supporting your pool shell, leading to cracked concrete, sinking pool decks, and catastrophic structural failure.
At Plumbing Utah, we bring our expertise in municipal and residential plumbing directly to your backyard. Dispatching from our Midvale headquarters, our licensed plumbers provide advanced pool leak detection and underground pipe repair for pools across Sandy, Midvale, and West Jordan.
While standard pool maintenance companies excel at balancing chemicals and skimming leaves, they often lack the specialized equipment and training to repair deep underground plumbing. That is exactly where we step in.
In the dry, arid climate of the Salt Lake Valley, it is completely normal for a pool to lose about 1/4 inch of water per day to evaporation during the peak of summer. If you are losing more than a 1/2 inch per day, you likely leak.
Try this simple test before you call:
The biggest fear pool owners have is that a plumber will have to jackhammer their beautiful concrete deck to find the leak. We utilize state-of-the-art, non-destructive leak detection technology to pinpoint the exact location of the break before we ever make a cut.
We handle the complex hydraulic systems that keep your pool crystal clear.
Why do underground pool pipes break in Utah? The South Valley features heavy, alkaline clay soils that expand when wet and contract when dry. This constant shifting, combined with the extreme freeze-thaw cycles of a Utah winter, puts immense stress on rigid underground PVC pipes, causing joints to crack or pipes to shear completely.
Can you fix a pool leak under concrete without destroying the whole deck? Yes. Using acoustic and tracer gas leak detection, we can pinpoint the leak to a specific 1- to 2-foot radius. We only need to remove a very small section of the concrete decking to access and repair the pipe, rather than trenching the entire length of your yard.
Do you repair the actual pool pump motor? We specialize exclusively in plumbing and piping for your pool equipment. If your pump housing is leaking water, we can rebuild the plumbing manifold. However, if the internal electrical motor has burnt out, you will need to purchase a replacement pump for us to plumb in.
Protect your pool shell and your water bill. Call the underground pipe experts today.
