Just installed (my husband and I) our AG, had watr truck here, now skimmer is leaking from the bottom.
Must we drain to the skimmer to fix? We know the answer, just hoping someone has other ideas.
Thank you very much!

Welcome to the forum.
Specifically where is the leak? Where the skimmer unit attaches to the pool? A crack?

Without more specific info, like Al asked for, it's hard to say.
But many such leaks can be fixed with "Pool Poxy", like this, available from Amazon:

Welcome to the Forum!
Stubborn leaks on a new pool can usually be dealt with by repositioning the gasket. If it still won't seal for you , you can use the epoxy sealant :)
