Plan the Waterproofing Project:

• Hire a professional waterproofing contractor with experience in working around swimming pools.
• Discuss your plans with the contractor and ensure they understand the proximity of the pool to the areas being waterproofed.

Cover the Pool:

• Use a high-quality pool cover to protect the water from dust, debris, and any potential splashes or spills during the waterproofing process.
• Make sure the pool cover is securely fastened to prevent it from being blown away by wind.

Isolate the Pool Area:

• Set up barriers or temporary fencing around the pool area to keep workers, equipment, and materials away from the pool.
• Clearly communicate to the construction crew the boundaries of the pool area to avoid any accidental damage.

Drain the Pool (if necessary):

• Consult with your waterproofing contractor to determine if draining the pool is necessary for the waterproofing process.
• If the pool needs to be drained, make sure it is done carefully to avoid damaging the pool’s structure or liner.

Protect Pool Fixtures:

• Cover pool fixtures, such as pumps, filters, and lights, to prevent any waterproofing materials or debris from getting inside.
• Use waterproof covers or plastic sheeting secured with tape or straps.

Maintain Proper Ventilation:

• Ensure proper ventilation to prevent fumes from the waterproofing materials from accumulating near the pool area.
• Use exhaust fans or open windows and doors as needed.

Supervision:

• Keep an eye on the waterproofing process to make sure no accidents or oversights occur that could affect the pool.

Post-Waterproofing Inspection:

• After the waterproofing work is complete, thoroughly inspect the pool area for any potential damage or contamination.
• If any waterproofing material has accidentally entered the pool, it may need to be cleaned or treated.

Refill and Rebalance:

• If the pool was drained, refill it with fresh water and rebalance the pool chemicals as needed to ensure water quality.

Regular Maintenance:

• Continue to monitor the pool and surrounding area for any signs of damage or issues that may have arisen during the waterproofing process.
• Address any necessary repairs promptly to prevent further damage.
