Hi everyone,
(snip)
I would like a decent liner with some longevity, can anyone recommend a
good quality pond liner either type of material or manufacturer and also
where is the best place to purchase the liner e.g. on line or at a
shop.

Have just checked ours and it is Butyl. V heavy but works. (5 yrs so
far but I expect a lot more).
You say the butyl is very heavy, June. We have an unlined pond here
which is a good 20ft by 30ft, full at the moment but we've been told
it dries out over the summer, so we'd like to put a Butyl liner in.
Could two oldish fittish people manhandle something that size or would
it be too heavy?
I have just been up to our shed, where we have the excess liner from our
pond (I intend - cynical laugh - to put in a second pond at the top of
the garden at some time, using the butyl). It is heavy. 20ft x 30ft is
far bigger than our pond and I cannot imagine what a piece that size
would weigh. Why not visit your local aquatic place and have a look at
the rolls of it there? That should give you some sort of idea.
