Pool drainage pricing

What an assessment involves, what drainage work costs, and how it sits against our standard published service rates.

Working with Pool Busters

Start with what’s happening below the surface

Before anything gets dug or replaced, one question matters: what is the water actually doing here? Two ways to answer it.

Option one

Drainage assessment

Starting at $250

For homeowners seeing something and wanting to know what it means.

  • Site inspection
  • Drainage evaluation
  • Groundwater assessment
  • Visual inspection
  • Recommendations
  • Written findings

The right starting point for most drainage concerns.

Option two

Drainage survey

Starting at $500

A fuller investigation for complicated sites — the whole property, not just the symptom.

  • Elevation measurements
  • Drainage mapping
  • Groundwater analysis
  • Evaluation of existing drainage
  • Relief well recommendations
  • Daylight drain feasibility
  • Repair recommendations

Worth it before major repairs, or when the cause is not obvious.

How it works

What actually happens when you call

No pressure, and no promise of a diagnosis on the spot. Some problems are obvious in ten minutes; others need a proper look at the whole site.

01

Tell us what you’re seeing

Liner movement after rain, wet areas, drainage history — in your own words.

02

We inspect the property

Pool conditions, surrounding drainage and visible groundwater indicators, on site.

03

We identify the likely cause

Groundwater, drainage conditions, or something else entirely.

04

We recommend a next step

Monitoring, pumping, drainage improvements, a relief well, daylight drainage — or a closer look.

Next step

Deal with groundwater before it gets expensive

Wrinkles, water behind the liner, wet ground — or peace of mind before a replacement. We’ll assess the conditions and recommend a next step.
