Skimmer Mouth Grout Joint Leak

More about skimmers
One of the most common leak areas we see. The skimmer is unique because it packs a little of every part of a pool's construction into a single feature, giving it several places to fail: the throat's waterproofing can break down (grout failure or plaster delamination), the body itself can grow brittle and crack with age or stress, and the plumbing beneath it can give out. It's also caught between two worlds — partly attached to the pool and partly set into the deck — so it's vulnerable not only to pool-related stress and failures, but to deck settling as well.
