    Default Vermiculite repair Water Seepage

    I'm replacing my pool liner with a new one. The vermiculite needs some repairs. I have made all the repairs except for the deep end hopper. I have water coming in that I can not stop. It is flowing just enough to wash out my repairs. Does anyone have an idea on how to make the repair short of digging a big hole?

    Welcome to The Forum!

    You've got a ground water issue and will need to dig a hole in the bottom of the deep end, to temporarily install a gravel surrounded sump pump.

    Please tell me more about your pool and who's doing the dropping of the liner and how you will fill the new liner.

    I've dealt with this well over 100 times and will gladly share my knowledge/ experience.
