Belzona Facts
This repair was carried out with a stream of water flowing out of the crack. Because of the anticipated movement in this joint, the repair was expected to be temporary. It did, in fact begin leaking some time later, but at a much reduced rate. When the tank is drained, a more permanent Belzona repair will be carried out.
