Wow! 🤩 Thank you so much for these responses and all of the helpful information. My husband and I will read over this all ASAP and let you know if we have any other questions. We are just super busy at work and with our kids soccer/baseball games and practices the next few days ughh 🤪 The...

Oddly enough we do not live in a flood plane, not that I am aware. I can pull the flood plane maps out later for our city and double check though. We live out by Memorial Stadium, off of Gregg Rd if that helps. The map you showed is Tanglewood which we all know in town is in a flood plane and...

I wanted to add just one more thing. When we first bought this house three years ago, the old liner had wrinkles all in the shallow end..in the exact same place these new wrinkles are developing now. I really do feel like we have a groundwater issue. Not only that, but our yard is mushy, wet...

Thank you so much for responding! So far, we have left everything alone and the water is already starting to recede and the liner adhere to the walls of the pool. Things are already looking a lot better. The sad thing is, we have a few wrinkles forming in the bottom of the liner on the shallow...

Can anyone help?

Hello everyone! We bought a new home about three years ago and it seems we have had nothing but issues with the liner pool in our new home. First, we started losing a ton of water and had American Leak Detection come out and they found that the pool light gasket was leaking. So, in December...

Well here we are again :( Everything was going wonderful, until a bag got stuck in our skimmer basket while we were sleeping last night which caused the pool to ice over. We were able to get the water moving again and we were checking on the pool throughout the day and all seemed decent...

Hello everyone! I am so sorry to bump this old thread up, but I am at a loss as to what we need to do next. To quickly review what has happened over the last few months: 1. We discovered a leak in our vinyl liner pool. 2. American Leak Detection came out and said the leak was in the...

Okay! Another update! I finally got the report from the leak detection company and this is what he said: “All plumbing is good and holding 10 psi at this time. During our detection we used our underwater mic locating sound around the ring of the vinyl pool light. The conduit is good and leak...

Okay another dumb question, but why would it be odd for the pump basket to hold prime if all the lines are plugged? I thought that was a good thing so now I am concerned about that :/ Should we have relieved pressure before plugging the lines? All we did was turn the pump off and then plug the...

Well we did a dye test around the rim and also inside the light niche including around the hole where the pool light line is coming out from and we just couldn’t see where the dye was being pulled in. So weird. I say we but it was actually my husband who did the dye test. He was out there for...

Okay thank you! We are doing a dye test now :)

Did you see the pics I posted? Does anything look off to you in the pics? Or is it impossible to tell where the leak is with pics alone? Is the conduit hole always supposed to be plugged or is it okay that is was left open like ours was? And not to sound stupid, but would a dye test in the...

Is there something, like a plug or stopper, that should be in the hole where the pool light cable is coming out from?

Hello everyone! Sorry to bump this thread back to the top but we need your help. We finally had time to examine the pool light a bit closer today. We think it might be the gasket/o-ring around the pool light itself as it looks worn and has dirt around it. It’s hard to tell if there is...

Another update! They found the leak! It’s our pool light (the bottom of it). I’ll do some searches on the forum, but any tips on how to fix a leak on the pool light? We plan to still get a new liner soon, but if we can repair the leak to get us through the busy season that would be awesome. (The...

Quick update! I called the American Leak Detection company and they are sending someone out tomorrow. I will let you all know what they find. Thank you again everyone for all of your replies/help! Have a great day!
