Anyone Digging New Pond This Summer?

Found this as info for pond liners:

I agree with the angryinsect, the drop sheet is plastic and will degrade and tear. You can search around for some-one who is dismantling a pond and get stuff cheap. A little work but inexpensive.

My wife now wants a koi pond in our backyard. I have one of those preformed ponds so its not too bad, but would like to make it quite a bit deeper so have to figure out how to use the preformed pond for the bottom and maybe fibreglass the above ground section and build it it cedar or cultivated rock so there's a sitting ledge all around. Would also design a viewing window I think and have some submersible LED lighting for the pond.

Another big project but will save it for the fall I think.

Tell me when to bring the shovel, dude.

And yes, stick with a proper EPDM pond liner. Cheap plastic for ponds causes nothing but massive headaches.

Definitely go with EPDM. Depending on the shape of the pond and falls it could be fun enough getting that to seal proper. Wouldn't want to be replacing all your rocks and surround every spring

make a crescent shaped pond with an outdoor pizza oven in the middle my dream backyard!
