GOT A LEAKING DAM?

Building a Dam

Failure to hold water is the most common problem for farm dams.

Repairing a Dam

Structural repairs are expensive and not always successful. Sealant treatments normally require you to empty your dam.

An Easy Solution

To create a permanent plug to seal the area where the water is being lost. Water$ave Plug is a unique blend in powdered form when applied to a dam that is leaking will get sucked into those problem areas where your water is being lost. Water$ave Plug will expand creating a permanent seal.
