Leaking swimming pool repair and renovation, Marbella

Another successful repair and renovation of this swimming pool in Marbella. As you can see, the pool had many cracks that had been repeatedly repaired and repeatedly leaked. Repair to cracks using sealants, mortars and staples rarely works, the forces involved are just too great.

We had actually quoted the owner of this pool for the installation of a Renolit AlkorPlan liner way back in 2016. The owner was poorly advised by local builders and pool shops that they could repair the cracks. Repairing a crack sounds like good value, it is a days labour, some magic mortar and job done. What about the cost of refilling the pool? Now repeat this process 5 times and reconsider the cost (and environmental impact of wasting so much water). After paying for the repairs 5 times and the water 5 times, is it still a good idea to repair a crack?

The installation of a Renolit AlkorPlan liner into a cracked pool structure is a one-off guaranteed repair. Maybe the cost sounds high initially, but the peace of mind knowing that the job has been done once should be priceless.

The Renolit AlkorPlan system is based around a reinforced pvc membrane, with a polyester mesh. This incredibly strong membrane is both the waterproofing and the finish. The material is guaranteed 10 years against leaks.

We can’t stress enough that you need to plan your work well ahead of time. Although our installations are fast, there are only so many working weeks in a year. Then there are unforeseen delays. In the spring of 2022 we lost a full month to rain and several days because of the transport strikes, this means that swimming pool installations were also delayed by this amount of time. Do not put the work off! An enquiry arrived today (23/5/22) for the installation of a liner in a pool for a beach club that is due to open in 7 days time, these clients were horrified to discover that we had other commitments and wouldn’t be able to install their pool for a month!! Plan ahead!!
