Pool Leak Detection & Waterproofing in Dubai, Burj Al Wasl

Pool Leak Detection & Waterproofing

Is your pool losing more water than evaporation explains? A leak wastes water and money and can undermine the structure and surrounding deck. Burj Al Wasl provides non-destructive pool leak detection and lasting waterproofing across Dubai.

How we find the leak

  • Bucket and dye testing to confirm a true leak versus evaporation
  • Pressure testing of skimmers, returns and underground pipework
  • Acoustic / electronic leak location to pinpoint shell and fitting leaks without breaking up the whole pool
  • Inspection of balance tank, plant room and expansion joints

Repairs & waterproofing

  • Structural crack injection (epoxy/PU) and concrete repair
  • Cementitious and membrane waterproofing / tanking with crystalline additives
  • Re-sealing fittings, skimmers, main drains and penetrations
  • Re-grouting and finish reinstatement

Why act fast in Dubai

Dubai’s high evaporation can disguise a slow leak, while the region’s saline groundwater aggressively attacks failed waterproofing and reinforcement. Early detection and proper tanking prevent costly structural damage and keep your pool, and DEWA water bill, under control.

Concrete vs fibreglass pools

How it works

  1. Free site visit, design and feasibility
  2. Fixed quote, drawings and approvals
  3. Excavation, shell, waterproofing and MEP
  4. Tiling/finish, filtration and commissioning
  5. Handover + optional maintenance (AMC)

Typical timeline: A new pool typically takes 6 to 12 weeks; repairs are scheduled quickly.

How to choose the best swimming pool company in Dubai

  • Correct filtration, circulation and safety compliance
  • A clear fixed quote covering shell to finish
  • Reliable ongoing maintenance to protect the investment

Red flags to avoid

  • Vague lump-sum quotes with no itemised breakdown (they tend to grow later)
  • No portfolio, references or verifiable completed projects
  • No clear contract, timeline, payment schedule or aftercare
  • Reluctance to handle Dubai authority approvals (Municipality, DEWA, DCD)
  • Prices far below the market, usually a sign of cut corners or hidden extras

Frequently Asked Questions

Evaporation in Dubai is significant, so we use a bucket test to compare, then dye and pressure testing to confirm and locate a true leak. If you are topping up unusually often, it is worth checking.

Yes. We use non-destructive methods, pressure testing, dye and acoustic/electronic detection, to pinpoint the leak so repairs are targeted rather than demolishing the structure.

Common causes include cracked shells from ground movement or thermal stress, failed waterproofing, deteriorated grout and tiles, and leaking fittings or underground pipework. Saline groundwater accelerates these issues.

It varies with the scope, materials and condition of the property. We confirm an honest, fixed price up front after a quick assessment, so there are no surprises.

There is no single fixed figure, because every job differs. After a free site visit we give you a transparent, fixed-price quote before any work begins.

Because of dust and heat, pools in Dubai should be professionally serviced at least weekly. Regular cleaning, chemical balancing and filter checks keep the water safe and protect the pump and filtration equipment.

Yes. A residential pool needs a building permit and approval of the pool plans, plus any community or developer NOC. Pools must meet Dubai Municipality technical guidelines for safety and circulation. We handle the approvals as part of the build.

A new pool typically takes 6 to 12 weeks depending on size, design and approvals. The stages are excavation, shell and waterproofing, MEP and plumbing, tiling or finish, then filtration and commissioning.

Concrete (gunite) allows any shape and size and is highly durable, ideal for custom and luxury pools. Fibreglass is faster to install with a smooth finish and lower upfront cost. The right choice depends on your space, design and budget.
