I have had my pool re-grouted and its leaking - Page 2

I had a similar problem and, after digging up around every pipe I could not see any water leaking out and I was losing a couple of inches a day.....   Turned out it was being lost around the pool cleaner connection.    I got some expoxy putty, that you need to knead together to activate, and pushed that, under water, around the connector.  Cost me 4 euros and I have had no leak for 2 years....    Worth a try.

Thank you for that advice, will have a go

Hi anglea 

The problem is, if it works for you, you will be kicking yourself forever...…

Kind regards

Richard

google milliput or try amazon or pet fish store

Looks as though you were right about the Hoover connection Richard, but we called John just to make sure, husband said he was a really nice guy who gave him some advice that didn't cost anything. We will do as he advised and will update you when we've filled the pool again.

This site is brilliant for advice. Thankyou

Hi Angela

Please let me know for certain- glad to be of help.   Think of all the money you could have saved...…

Kind regards

Yes I will keep you updated thank you

The leaking in a pool could be down to a number of reasons 

I suggest you contact leak tech company to do a back pressure test on your pipes and jets to see if the source of the leak is the broken or cracked piping and or the skimmers 

If your piping and skimmers as well as you dump are ok then the problem is due to poor re-grouting 

Good luck I hope the problem is not due to cracked pipes as to replace is fairly exp

Guess what, we have no leaks now, we bunged up the Hoover hole and no leaks. We can use the strummer for the hoover now, so, so relieved 

Thanks for all your help and a big thanks to Richard and John Professional Pool care for coming to see us and giving us a perfect solution without charge.
