Browse Forums Pools & Spas 1 Jul 06, 2012 3:12 pm Hi All We are having a concrete pool constructed at the moment. The concrete was poured two weeks ago. I have noticed that there is a leak in the concrete and water/red dirt is seeping through into the empty pool. The pool guy did find a water spring in our backyard whilst digging. My question is, what is the best way to fix this?? Is this something that will be fixed when they add the pebblecrete?? I would of thought that it would be best to fix this before going any further into the construction.
