This pond in Harpenden had a leak and needed to be re-lined. The previous liner didn’t stand up to the test of time so a quality EPDM Greenseal liner was used to give the customer peace of mind for many years problem free pond liner!
The following was done to refurbish this pond
- Pond was emptied with fish being caught and stored in temporary holding
- Aquatic lily was cut up with 50% being discarded and the rest re-potted in large pots, some pond sludge was used to help reduce pond maturation time
- Wooden surround holding the old liner was removed along with the leaky liner
- High quality underlay and pond liner were installed
- Water gradually filled and creases were removed
- Liner was cut and shaped with wood battening re-screwed to hold in place
- fish slowly acclimatised back into pond, de-chlorinator used to break down chlorine and heavy metals present in tap water
- Aquatic plants added back to pond
- large amount of liner left to allow for future waterfall
