How to Check for Leakage Before Using Your Swimming Pool
Swimming Pool Waterproofing is very important to protect your pool from silent leaks. Before you start using your swimming pool, it’s smart to check for any leakage.
Begin by filling your pool up to the normal water level and mark the waterline. For the next 3 to 7 days, carefully watch the water level without using the pool or running the filtration system.
If the water level drops by more than 6 to 8 inches within a week — and there is no rain or filter backwashing — this means there is a leak. Leaks are often caused by small cracks in the plaster, damaged tile joints, or old waterproofing failure.
Once you confirm the leak, Waterseal offers professional Swimming Pool Waterproofing services in Ahmedabad. For customers outside Ahmedabad, we provide DIY waterproofing kits with full step-by-step guidance. You can simply hire any local painter and follow our easy instructions to fix the leakage effectively.
Swimming Pool Waterproofing Process – Step-by-Step Guide to Fix Leaking Pools
Swimming Pool Waterproofing becomes essential when your pool starts losing water due to cracks or weak joints. Even a small leak can cause water loss of several inches per week and slowly damage the pool structure.
Waterseal uses a proven PSv-Premix coating system to give long-lasting waterproofing protection. Below is our Step-by-Step Guide to Fix Leaking Pools professionally and permanently:
Step-by-Step Guide to Fix Leaking Pools
1. Surface Cleaning
We start by cleaning all pool surfaces — walls and floor — using a wire brush or grinder machine. This removes dirt, dust, algae, and moss. A clean surface ensures better bonding for waterproofing chemicals and long-term durability.
2. Crack Inspection and Widening
Next, we carefully inspect the pool for cracks or weak joints. All visible cracks are slightly widened using a grinder machine. This helps the PSv-Premix waterproofing chemical penetrate deeper for stronger sealing.
3. Final Pressure Wash
After grinding, we pressure wash the pool to remove all loose dust and particles before applying the coating.
4. Primer Coating (1st Coat)
We apply a primer coat using a 1:2 ratio — one part PSv-Premix and two parts clean water. This is brushed or sprayed on the entire pool surface. The primer seals micro-pores and prepares the surface for further coating.
5. Crack Sealing with PPC Mat (2nd Coat)
Once the primer dries, we apply a 1:1 mix of PSv-Premix and water along with PPC Mat (polypropylene-coated fabric) over cracks and joints. This bridges the cracks and prevents them from reopening under water pressure.
6. Strong Waterproofing Layers (3rd & 4th Coats)
Now comes the main waterproofing layer. Two more coats of PSv-Premix (1:1 mix) are applied — the first vertically and the second horizontally. This cross-layer method creates a strong, flexible, and long-lasting waterproof membrane.
7. Optional Topcoat – PSv Super Repellent Coating
For extra protection and a glossy finish, we recommend an optional PSv Super Repellent Coating. It improves UV resistance and makes the surface easy to clean.
After Waterproofing: What to Do
Let the coated surface dry naturally for 5 to 7 days. Then fill the pool with water and monitor it for the next week. If the water level stays the same, your pool is now completely waterproof. You can then drain the test water, refill it with clean water, and enjoy your leak-free swimming pool.

Swimming Pool Waterproofing - Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is Swimming Pool Waterproofing and why is it important?
Swimming Pool Waterproofing is a special process that protects your pool from water leakage and structural damage. It helps prevent cracks, water seepage, and chemical erosion. Proper waterproofing ensures long-lasting durability and saves repair costs in the future.
2. How can I check if my swimming pool is leaking?
You can easily test for leakage by filling the pool to its normal water level and marking the waterline. Monitor it for 3–7 days without using the pool or filtration system. If the water level drops more than 6–8 inches in a week (without rain or filter backwashing), there’s a leak that needs waterproofing repair.
3. Can I fix a leaking pool myself using a DIY waterproofing kit?
Yes! If you’re outside Ahmedabad, you can use Waterseal’s DIY Swimming Pool Waterproofing Kit. It comes with easy step-by-step instructions and online support. You can even hire a local painter to apply the coating — no special tools or training needed.
4. How long does the Swimming Pool Waterproofing process take?
The complete Swimming Pool Waterproofing process — including cleaning, coating, and drying — usually takes around 7 to 10 days, depending on the pool size and weather conditions. The coating must dry naturally before refilling the pool with water.
5. How long does waterproofing last, and when should it be redone?
A professionally done Swimming Pool Waterproofing using the PSv-Premix coating system can last for 8 to 10 years or even longer with proper maintenance. If you notice cracks, peeling, or water loss again, it’s time for inspection and reapplication.
