Broken Irrigation Pipe on top of New Pool Pipe

Postby bluegirl » Thu 30 Apr, 2020 19:32

I just reviewed our surveillance cameras to see the progress on the construction of our new pool for the day and was surprised to see the plumbers leave broken irrigation pipe on top of the new pool pipes while filling the trenches with dirt. Should we be concerned that our new pool pipes may be more likely to break, crack and or leak with the broken irrigation pipes sitting directly on top of them under the weight of the dirt and pavers above them? Thanks for your help.

Depends on the pipe and what the pipes are bedded on (sand)
