Common Pool Problems

Let's get something clear: nothing lasts forever. If you're facing pool problems, you're not alone. Owning a swimming pool is hard work; it means things break, pool pumps seize, leaks occur, and you can always expect the unexpected. This is what keeps us small business owners in a job. But enough of the small talk, below, we list some of the most common pool repair problems we hear from our clients on a daily basis.


Cracks

Cracks can be a serious issue, cracks can worsen you pool if water filters in or out of crack lines in the gel coating.Cracks are a reality of all types of materials, especially in fibreglass pools. Most of the times, these hairline cracks are hard to see and don't extend past the gel coating. But a poor quality pool might not endure severe wall cracks which may compromise your pool’s structural stability and cause leaks.

Bulging Floor

Sand backfilling and intense rain can lead to problems with the floor. If the sand fully compacts and buildups with water, it will exert tremendous pressure on the inside side of your walls fibreglass and eventually cause the walls to re-shape, cracks or leaks. This is a big issue as the pressure is compromising the structural stability of the pool

Leaks

Sand backfilling can also lead to problems with plumbing. If the sand fails to fully compact around the pipes, it will exert pressure on the connections with the fibreglass and eventually cause pool leaks.

Top Coat Deterioration

Usually, after 10-15 years, age and direct exposure of sun rays result in a colour distorted fibreglass pool. The top coat colour starts fading, leaving behind a white and sometimes flaky pool surface. In extreme cases where the top gel coat is of bad quality, colour distortion may result in gel coat deterioration with the top coat granulating and become chalky which is harmful to humans if inhaled or drank.

Black Spot Algae

Black Spot is particularly hard to get rid of when it takes up residence on the walls and floors or embedded in grout between tiles of your pool. Caused by poor chlorination or high phosphate levels. The algae can feed on the phosphates, stimulating its growth. However, Black Spot has been known to survive even when there are low phosphate levels in the pool water.

Gel coat deterioration

Gel coat deterioration happens when your pool shell incurs pressure that exceeds its ability to flex leading to small spider web-like cracks on the gel-coat and the original colour to fade into white. Even improper manufacturing, shipping and installation can leave behind cracks in your fibreglass pool.

Chalking

Chalking happens when the gel coat of your pool starts oxidizing. Age and excessive chlorination are a few common causing of chalking of a fibreglass pool. Inhaling or consuming top coat flakes is extremely unhealthy and may cause respiratory and stomach-related problems.

Liner Floating

Usually seen in concrete pools. When old or badly set up the pool liners can lose their seal and separate from the pool base, causing it to float. This is a relatively small problem, however, if left unattended other might arise and repairs might take longer. ​

Osmosis

Osmosis, popularly known as Fibreglass Cancer or blisters, is one of the worst issues with fibreglass pools. When contaminated water from the outside of the pool (soil area) filters to inside the fibreglass and penetrates into the top-coat, it shows as blisters or bumps on the pool’s surface.Once they reach their limit, these blisters will eventually crack, leaving behind small black/brown marks on the pool surface, bringing bacteria and nasty pollution to the water. Due to the high mineral content in these cracks, algae formation takes place which is called black plague. Once osmosis breaks out in your pool, the water conditions are less than recommended for your family, particularly to your little ones.

Pool Pump Repairs

As a rule of thumb, once your pump starts making strange noises or if it doesn’t “feel” right then you should immediately have it looked at or replaced. Why? Well, your pool pump is literally the heart of your swimming pool. We mean, even without a filter, your pool can last for quite a while before turning green as long as you keep the water balanced properly. A broken pool pump on the other hand will leave you with stagnant water and that can lead to a green pool in no time at all if you don’t get a replacement or repair soon!If your pool pump is making strange sounds, leaking, or not working as well as it used to, don’t worry, our swimming pool pump repairs team is here to help fix any problems your pump may be having. It’s important to get your pool pump serviced and repaired as soon as possible to avoid further damage to the pool and your wallet.

Broken Pool Light Repairs

While a burned out light may seem just like an inconvenience, it is worth noting that if your pool light dies suddenly, it will be a good idea to at least give the light receptacle a good check, even if you don’t plan on replacing the pool light with a LED light soon. Why is this? Well, water and electricity don’t mix! If the pool light failure was caused by a leak, then sealing up the light receptacle or cutting off the power supply to the light port is a good “repair” in itself. If the pool light has naturally died then you have nothing to worry about , get in touch with our pool repairs team to replace the pool light bulbs at your own leisure.

Skimmer Boxes Replacement

Pool skimmer boxes are an essential part of most swimming pools. They are typically located on the side of the pool and are responsible for removing debris, such as leaves, grass, and other floating debris, from the water's surface. Skimmer boxes work by pulling in water from the pool's surface through a skimmer weir, which then traps debris in a skimmer basket before returning the water back into the pool. Proper installation and regular maintenance of skimmer boxes are crucial to ensure efficient pool operation and water clarity..

Bulging Floors/Visible Bulges or Bumps

Sand backfilling and intense rain can lead to problems with the floor. If the sand fully compacts and buildups with water, it will exert tremendous pressure on the inside side of your walls fibreglass and eventually cause the walls to re-shape, cracks or leaks. A stable backfill and professional resurfacing can make your pool structurally stronger. If you detect that the wall shape are changing in your pool, immediately contact us to help you with your fibreglass pool resurface to make your pool structurally sound again in the most affordable manner.
