We have cement and EDPM. We have had rigid plastic in the form of kiddie
pools. The edpm and cement are more durable. The plastic is specially
vulnerable if you are making any ports in it. EDPM is easy to patch, as is
rigid. Settling is no problem for edpm. It is a potential problem for
rigid. Is there a reson you would choose rigid over flexible? Above
ground? Ease of installation? ?

I'm looking to get a rigid pond to replace the torn liner that's
currently leaking in the back garden. Are rigid liners any good?
There's a plastic one that I've spotted that has the right dimensions
to fit the hole I have, it's the BLAGDON DAMSEL FLY 1250 LITRES. Any
opinions on it?

Also if a rigid plastic liner were to get a hole in it, how would you
repair it? Is there a method, or will it be useless.
And while I'm asking how thick are the preformed plastic liners and how
heavy would one that is about 2.5x.5m be?
