Is your water brush an entity? Also this looks like an issue you may want to look in to:
vvis launcher error: can't load vvis_dll.dll
The specified procedure could not be found

Yeah, your VVis (and your VRad) aren't running for some reason. Water requires VVis to run in order to appear properly; this is why leaks break water, is because your map can't calculate the visibility if there's a leak. You should check your Team Fortress 2\bin folder and make sure that it contains the files causing the errors, vvis_dll.dll and vrad_dll.dll. Whether you do or you don't, verifying the games cache should be enough to fix the problem

well, this tells me my problem, but I'm not sure how to fix it

Install the visual studio runtime support library. It's known as the visual studio redistributable. There are several versions to pick from. Might as well install them all if you ask me.

You don't play enough video games. Had you played a few of them then you would already had this installed.
