FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

ABOUT THE ACCURATE LEAK DETECTION

To start a leak detection business, it important that my area has a lot of swimming pools? What other factors should I consider?

It is very desirable to be in a location with a lot of pools, but not necessary. There are many other services you can provide depending on the area. Old towns, large cities, small towns with neighboring towns, resort areas and earthquake zones are all highly desirable, but not necessary. Even in a small town, you will be the only expert for miles around. Call around to pool services or plumbers and ask about the idea of a new leak business.

How do I get started?

Test the waters first, and give me a call, (Nathan 407-671-2060) and discuss your idea: leaks in houses? swimming pools?, both? You then should order the leak detection videos and the training manual and study it at home. Go through the material and see if it for you. Study it and learn about what you will be doing. If you have expierience in your field or want to expand on your present business, this may be enough. I always feel more experience is necessary: expecially in this business, lets pick a few days.  We have already probably given you a base price of your leak detection course and materials. We will need 1/2 of that price in a money order 2 weeks before you arrive to customise your tools and supplies. The other 1/2 when you arrive to your .

 

What skills do I need? Is my health a factor?

Any lacking skills will quickly be developed at our training center or through experience on the job. Some mechanical ability is important: Most skills associated with bicycle maintenance (fixing a flat tire, etc) are all that are required. Sales skills are also a plus, but not necessary for most jobs sell themselves, and you will also learn how to do this during training. Pool service experience is also desired but can be learned.

Health factors, as in all jobs, are significant. Most people will get a fair amount of exercise from day to day duties. Hearing is one of the most critical aspects- If you suffer from bad hearing or had ear operations, this may not be for you. There is alot of shallow water diving involved and it can cause problems with some peoples ears. If your skin burns quickly from the sun, this won't be for you either.
