Hi all, I need advice on a leak around the skimmer on my 24’ round above ground. Last year there was a drip coming from the underside of the frame of the skimmer on the outside of the pool. We forgot to do something about it and now after being open about 2 weeks there’s more of a stream of water coming from one of the sides. I put a container under it and caught about a gallon of water yesterday, but I’m not catching it all. Can someone give me advice on how to fix this leak? My husband though maybe there was a screw loose and there was one and he tightened it, but now the leak actually seems worse. Help please. We have a Hayward skimmer.

Pam, can you post a pic or two of the suspect spots where the skimmer is leaking. That will drive the recommend repair actions and/or products to use.
