Sorry to hear that. Part of the reason why my overflow is actually technically an emergency overflow. I once had a pipe through the dike for an overflow but my pond builder didn't bother to put a collar on it and water worked it's way around the pipe and I sprung a leak. When he came out to fix it I told him I wanted an emergency overflow that funneled into an above ground pipe. Works like a charm other than some five star moles that bored in the top couple of feet. Fixed that with some concrete.
