Gunnite Leaks

Gunnite leaks in pools compromise structural integrity, escalate maintenance costs, and pose erosion risks, demanding immediate attention for sustained functionality.

Gunnite leaks in pools not only undermine structural stability and safety but also lead to increased water and chemical consumption, elevating maintenance costs. Additionally, persistent leaks can contribute to erosion, posing long-term durability risks and necessitating prompt repairs for overall pool integrity.

Signs of this Type of Leak.

  1. Water Loss: A noticeable drop in water levels despite regular refilling.
  2. Cracks or Fractures: Visible cracks or fractures on the pool's gunnite surface.
  3. Soggy or Wet Areas: Wet spots around the pool area indicating water seepage.
  4. Unexplained Pool Chemical Imbalance: Frequent and unexplained fluctuations in water chemistry.
  5. Undermined Pool Surroundings: Erosion or damage to the pool's surroundings, such as decking or coping, due to water leakage.

I fix this type of leak by doing these things.

  • Identify Leak Source: Conduct a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact location of the gunnite leak.
  • Drain Pool: Safely drain the pool to access the affected area without water interference.
  • Expose and Clean the Leak Area: Remove any debris or material covering the damaged section and clean the surface for effective repair.
  • Apply Epoxy or Sealant: Use appropriate gunnite patching materials, such as epoxy or specialized sealants, to seal the leak securely.
  • Smooth and Cure: Ensure a smooth and even application of the patch, following manufacturer guidelines for curing time before refilling the pool.
  • Monitor for Effectiveness: Refill the pool and monitor for any signs of recurring leaks, making additional repairs if necessary.
