    Removed Old Liner, Water Leaking IN to Pool

    Hi Folks. I am replacing my pool liner this Spring. I have removed the old liner and drained out all of the water so I can get in there and take the necessary measurements. However, groundwater is leaking into my pool through a small crack on the slope from the shallow end to the deep end...
