Pond build again
Hi all.
in 2014 I joined the forum and asked about local pond builders? Unfortunately neither of the two people who priced actually impressed me at that time, plus a few that never bothered ringing back. Then I became unwell and a pond was shelved, but now I’ve retired at looking again at pond construction, so knowing how time has passed, does anyone have any recommendations now.
Any suggestions would be a great help.

Hi Beached
Welcome back. Are you any good at DIY or project management as now you are retired you will have time to get people in to do work such as brick layers ect.. Do your home work and make a few plans then visit a few Koi suppliers to get their advice. Then take your time and do it correctly from day 1 - make it as big as you can afford / available area and then fit a bottom drain / skimmer and a plumbed filter system to make maintenance easy to get fresh water and get rid of waste easily, Fiber glass or liner it goes on and on and on
