Common Swimming Pool Problems in Centurion (And How to Fix Them)
Swimming pools can develop several problems over time including water leaks, cracks in the pool shell, rough pool surfaces and equipment failures.
If these issues are not repaired early, they can lead to more serious structural damage or expensive renovations.
Crispy Pools specializes in diagnosing and repairing swimming pool problems across Centurion including Wierda Park, Eldoraigne, Rooihuiskraal, Clubview, Irene and Midstream.
With more than 15 years of construction and pool renovation experience, our team can identify the cause of pool issues and recommend the most effective repair or renovation solution.
Pool Losing Water
One of the most common swimming pool problems is unexplained water loss.
While some evaporation is normal, significant or continuous water loss may indicate a pool leak.
Common causes include:
- Cracks in the pool shell
- Damaged plumbing pipes
- Leaking fittings or lights
- Worn pool surfaces
If a pool leak is not repaired quickly, it can lead to structural damage and increased water costs.
Concerned About Pool Water Loss?
If your swimming pool is losing water faster than normal evaporation, a professional inspection will locate the source of the problem.
We provide professional pool inspections and repairs across Wierda Park, Eldoraigne, Rooihuiskraal, Clubview, Irene and Midstream.
Cracks in the Pool Structure
Structural cracks will develop in swimming pools due to several factors including soil movement, aging concrete structures and ground pressure.
Cracks will allow water to escape and will worsen if not properly repaired.
Professional structural crack repair methods may include:
- Steel crack stitching
- Structural epoxy injection
- Concrete reinforcement
These techniques restore the structural integrity of the pool shell.
Notice Cracks in Your Pool?
Structural cracks should be inspected early to prevent further damage.
Crispy Pools provides professional pool crack repairs across Centurion.
Rough Pool Surface
A rough pool surface is often caused by deterioration of the original finish.
Older marbelite surfaces commonly become rough as they age.
Signs your pool may need resurfacing include:
- rough texture on pool walls
- plaster flaking or peeling
- stains or discoloration
- frequent algae buildup
Pool resurfacing restores both the appearance and durability of the swimming pool.
Pool Pump Not Working
The pool pump circulates water through the filtration system.
If the pump stops working properly, the pool water can quickly become cloudy or develop algae.
Common pump problems include:
- pump not starting
- loud pump noises
- reduced water circulation
- overheating motors
Professional inspection can determine whether the pump requires repair or replacement.
Pool Water Turning Green Quickly
If pool water turns green quickly even after chemical treatment, the filtration system may not be operating correctly.
Possible causes include:
- malfunctioning pump
- blocked or dirty filter
- worn pool surfaces harboring algae
Regular maintenance and effective filtration help maintain clean swimming pool water.
When Should a Pool Be Renovated?
Swimming pools typically require resurfacing or renovation every 10 to 15 years, depending on the type of finish and maintenance.
Common signs that a renovation may be required include:
- surface deterioration
- structural cracks
- continuous water leaks
- outdated pool design
