Water$ave Plug - IT WORKS!

Well I’ll be buggered.  IT WORKS!
After the recent heavy rain following such a long dry spell, my dam (small acreage) developed quite a substantial leak.
The water was literally bubbling out of a hole in the ground at the base of the dam wall, and running down the road as a small stream.
While the neighbours were quite happy with this arrangement, I was not so impressed.

I temporarily plugged the hole (about 100mm across) with a log, bashed in with a sledge hammer, and searched the ’net for a solution.
I read the reports and claims made re Water$ave Plug, and with a fair degree of scepticism, placed an order for a 10kg pail.

I purchased a 20kg pail of Watersave Plug in Dec.
I have been waiting for rain to fill dam.

I had some clay spread in dam but was not holding, added Watersave Plug when dam filled & the dam is holding really well.

Well, must say I'm impressed!
Our dam has always leaked and having got a backhoe in 10 years ago to dig out the old gully line, managed to slow the drainage but then 6 years ago we got the wall raised a few metres and since then its leaked more than it keeps.

Tried about 1/2 ton of bentonite but no improvement, very disheartening watching the level drop from full down by 2.5m in a week or so as thats about 6 months of water for the garden, so were about to get the wall moved and properly cored etc. but my wife saw your add and I bought 20kg of Water$ave.

Having used about 2kg the dam thing seems to be holding!

Its not yet full so will be interesting to see if the higher water level will hold too although as soon as the thing fills up I intend to give it another dose of your magic -  will keep you advised.

Dear Andrew & Andrea, 

Here with some pictures of dam repair number 4.

This occasion involved the draining and drying it out for several months, cleaning out the attempt number two's 3 tonne of Bentonite, and attempt number three's clay and silt, trucking in 336 tonnes special clay, 2 excavators,1 bulldozer, 1 sheepsfoot roller, 2 impact whackers and $38,000.00!!!

The result was still the same leaking dam I've had for 35 years.

Hi,
Just thought I'd let you know the product worked perfectly.
Our dam had been empty for about 10 years...was full of grass, lantana and weeds.

The dam is full and it has been holding for about four weeks now.

Hi,

Thanks for your great product Watersave plug.
After going through a terrible drought and running out of water for my stock.
I decided to put in a good dam.
I spent $25000 to drought proof my property.

I couldn’t believe my luck when it started to fill, the water was pouring out as fast as it went in!!!
When i saw your advert I thought I would take another gamble.
It turned out to be the best gamble ever before the week was up the dam had stopped leaking.
I was over the moon.

My Leaking Dam Story.
For 22 years we have been annoyed by the water loss from the dam at the front of our house.
It has consistently leaked at a rate that I would estimate at two 19mil hoses running.
I have had 2 tries at mechanical repair and have also thrown in several bags of Bentonite without making any difference.

After the last rains I asked Google about leaking dams and came up with ‘Polymer Innovations’ who market a dam repair powder.
With much trepidation I ordered 20 Kilos of their product.
‘Here goes nothing and not much change from $400’.

Now picture if you will; Trent Abell rowing me around our dam in Dave Argaet’s tinny while I broadcast the strange powder (some of which turned to a greasy sort of jelly when wet) at a rate of 100 grams per square metre.
We worked along and away from the dam wall.
