Water Tank Leak Repair
(OP)
Hi All
In water reservoir, we found damp spot and water leak through crack. Would like to know form others who deal with crack-leak in reservoir. I am bit surprised when i found leak, because tank XYPEX- water proofing inside.
Water leak through shrinkage crack within15 days after poured.
Thanks for your time and input -

1) Wait. Sometimes shrinkage cracks close up in a water filled structure as the concrete hydrates.
2) Inject epoxy in the crack.
I don't put a lot of stock in Xypex (or any other magic potion). It densifies the outer layer of concrete, but if the concrete cracks, it's still going to leak.
