Hello Everyone,
We have a new pool being built. Guinite is poured 10 days ago. Last night we had rain and I see dirt stains around pipes put up, I believe there are gaps around these pipes and caused the leak. Is it going to be a problem? Should I be concerned? I have already sent pictures to my pool builder haven' heard yet. Looking for some thoughts and suggestions from fellow pool owners. Attached some pics.

Welcome to TFP.

That is normal for that stage of gunite. The penetrations will be packed with hydraulic cement or plaster before plastering.

Have you been watering the gunite?
