Company Overview

Our focus is not on traditional plumbing. Our expertise lies in identifying and fixing leaks in pools and spas. Our team is licensed for pool and spa contracting. We also specialize in detecting slab leaks. We track the source and origin of mysterious water damage. We do not have a plumber on staff for residential or commercial plumbing. We offer services for both residential and commercial clients. We maintain full licensing and insurance. All employees undergo annual background checks.

As the first experts in leak detection, we have successfully located almost 5 million leaks since 1974, helping homeowners and businesses save billions on repairs and reducing water waste. Our team members are specially trained professionals. Our goal is to locate leaks in a non-invasive, efficient, and eco-friendly manner. Our commitment is to deliver timely, professional, and respectful service to all clients. We offer the best leak detection services available.

In July 2001, the Nagel family took over the American Leak Detection franchise. Steve dedicated six weeks at the American Leak Detection headquarters in Palm Springs, California. During this time, he completed an intensive training program that laid the foundation for his extensive skill set. Steve has a knack for solving puzzles. His natural talent, along with our cutting-edge technology and over twelve years of experience, positions him as an expert in leak detection!

Steve calls Palm Harbor, Florida home, where he lives with his wife, Jennie, and their little girl, GG. When he’s not working, he enjoys spending time with family and friends and playing golf. A large portion of his workday involves driving across five counties to get to job sites. To make the most of his time on the road, he listens to audiobooks. His favorite author is Ernest Hemingway, and he has listened to every one of his novels.

She sounded like she actually enjoyed and respected her job, lol. The service technician Steve was very prompt, knowledgeable and had great trouble shooting skills. Very professional service from a knowledgeable, honest technician who also seems to enjoy his job.

We've been working with ALD for the past few weeks and their customer service and pool technicians are knowledgeable and always on time for appointments. They also provide the pool technicians name as well as ensure they pass a background check. Can't really ask for more """"piece of mind"""" than that. Thank you ALD for the honesty and great service!

I had a leaking pool. Staff was knowledgeable and courteous. Dan, the technician, was amazing! Highly recommend! He found and fixed the leaks in my pool in no time!

Water flooded underneath the kitchen counters, so I wasn't able to see where the leak was coming from. The technician inspected the kitchen and surrounding areas. Once the leakage was found, he dedicated how to fix it.

I was very skeptical of using a chain on something like this! My pool was loosing 2"""" of water a day. Troy was great to work with. He communicated extremely well from while in transit until the final wrap up. They off a 60 day warranty on there repairs. I highly recommend them.

Let me start off by giving them credit where it's due. The service was friendly and the confirmations on appointments are second to none. Now let me get into why this review is negative. Per their requisites, they specify that a pool must be clean clear, and full. Therein lies the problem if you are someone reporting a serious leak that needs to be detected and repaired. Granted in their typical cases (most of them, I am assuming based on the level of expertise described further), there may be small leaks like seals around skimmers and jets, etc. but if you have a leak that is substantially losing water, how are you supposed to fill a pool and keep it clear and clean?! We were told that they will not honor a re-visit to re-diagnose the pool if it's not clean, clear, and full. If they came out and it was not clean clear and full it would be an additional trip charge of $175.00 (now already invested $500.00 with no fix and the pool is still leaking badly). My wife and I desperate to stop the proverbial """"bleeding"""" found that the temporary fix that the service person installed on the FIRST trip actually exacerbated the problem causing the water to dump out of the purge (pool drain pipe) as fast as we were trying to fill it!! Once we removed the plug, the purge pipe stopped running. We then isolated the leak by identifying a jet that we noticed was spitting out small amounts of dirt and sand and plugged that jet with the plug (provided by the service person). The leaking has stopped and we resolved the issue on our own with a $5.00 PVC cap! Now out hundreds of dollars between the fruitless repair call and the wasted water, we will work on finding a service company to repair the jet line... and it will NOT - I repeat N O T be American Leak Detection. If my wife and I were able to """"detect the leak"""" and find a solid but temporary repair, we need a company that has more expertise in problem-solving than my wife and I that know nothing about pools. Feel free to be embarrassed ALD, because you SHOULD be! You are also free to contact me.
