How To Fix Tiled Swimming Pool Leaks

Step 1

Safely locate the leak in the pool tile.

Step 2

Step 3

Squeeze the bottle of epoxy directly onto the crack in the tile. You can do this while underwater, as the epoxy will not wash away. If the crack is not on the tile but in the tile grout, simply squeeze the epoxy on top of the leaking grout.

Step 4

Gently smooth the epoxy onto the surface of the cracked tile with a gloved hand.

Step 5

Allow the epoxy to set for at least 45 minutes before touching it to see if the leak has been adequately sealed.
