How can leaks be repaired?

0

Small leaks can often be repaired with an underwater epoxy or plaster patch. Some leaks are underground and need a pipe to be replaced. Large cracks that are leaking often need to be injected with an urhethane foam. Sometimes a skimmer or a part from your equioment may need to be replaced. Some leaks, such as small structural leaks, can be easily repaired WITHOUT draining the pool. Using underwater type epoxies or patching plasters is the most common way of dealing with this type of leak. Buried plumbing leaks require a more extensive repair. Broken or cracked pipes under decking usually call for cutting the decking to reach the repair site. Sometimes it is easier and less expensive to seal off the leaking system and install a new one.
