We were talking to him about how to redo our pond. Is vinyl, which we have not going to hold up for many years? When a Georgia contractor says rubber liner, he probably means EPDM, which some still call rubber, hard rubber or roofing sheet rubber. Butyl isn't readily available here in sheets, although you may find some in tapes and sealers for repairs. In fact you will be lucky if you can find a roofing supply house that still handles sheet EPDM. I'm in Warner Robins and my first EPDM liner, (An EPDM roofing sheet.) came from Warner Robins Supply, a local building supply and my last one from he http://www.justliners.com/epdm.htm No, the liner didn't go bad, the lawn timbers rotted. I changed the pond from a wooden frame above ground to a retaining wall stone frame above ground. Thanks for the info Hal. Well, we decided not to redo the 'pond' really just used as a fountain until the vinyl cracks. I wanted to put in a drain, to make it easier to clean, but will wait for now. Sheila |
