    Leak we can’t locate the cause of

    Ya they did backfill with sand, but you are correct this area does have a lot of large rocks sitting on top of that plumbing. I’ll send this pic over to the PB to see if they might agree and just break up this concrete area to see if they can find the leak. Thanks for the input!

    Leak we can’t locate the cause of

    Thanks for the input! Yes, we turned the autofill off for about a week maybe even 2 and used a water hose from another spigot on the other side of the house and we didn’t notice any improvement. Before they repaired the lights we were noticing the leak was getting worse overnight when the...

    Leak we can’t locate the cause of

    I’m willing to do anything at this point. We have the leak detection crew coming back out next week so I can make this the next step if they don’t find it. It may take me while to get clear water from the mud but I think it’s totally possible. I agree there’s really no way of knowing how to...

    Leak we can’t locate the cause of

    Yes, they pressure tested the lines, but they plan to do it again. I’m hoping I can be home when they come so I can pick their brain and just ask them a ton of questions so I can really understand how this all works. I saw one post where they did a sonar test so I’m wondering if I can convince...

    Yes it’s a concrete slab. Sorry, I meant synthetic turf.

    This is probably the best pic I have of the plumbing that runs under these concrete pads. Side note..I had no idea how important it would be to get a picture of every single inch of the pool during the build. I’ll definitely be doing that next time around :)

    Both are wet. It started on the ground and has moved up to the foundation. I assume the wet ground has caused the concrete slab to get wet. I’ve attached some better pictures in another reply.

    Thank you for the request. Pictures attached. If I need a better picture of the equipment please let me know. I’ve turned it all off and on a few times to see if I could spot any small leaks at start up or stopping and I’m just not seeing anything.

    Leak we can’t locate the cause of

    I love this idea, but I can’t get a good sample of water. It’s pretty much just damp and muddy and not standing water. I was hoping when they dug down they would find a pool of water somewhere and we could sample that, but all they found was mud. I assume I can’t sample mud? Thanks for the input!

    Leak we can’t locate the cause of

    The house has a water line on it from being wet for so long. I assume after an extended period of time having wet ground under my house would cause foundation problems? Idk, that’s just a theory? Eventually we want to add turf between the concrete pads and I also worry so much damp ground would...
