There has been a lot of talk of roofing liner being just as good, and I
believe it. I am trying to research sources to see if the price point is
really there. My problem is that I can't finding roofing supplies anywhere!
*laugh* Home Depot does not carry EPDM liner, and I can't find a local
roofing company. Any thoughts?

Phoenix.

BV,

In the Richmond Yellow Pages, there are about 2 columns of "Roofing
Materials". Some are slate, metal, but some are all. If your area doesn't
have a roofing supplier, check with one of the larger cities around you.

I work part time at a HD here in Richmond,Va. We carry both EPDM and PVC
liner....The EPDM runs about $13.00 per lineal ft at 15 ft wide and the PVC
runs about $8.50 per ft at 12 ft wide...Now the boxed liner (PVC only) is
cheaper since the price of the liner goes up & down with the price of
fuel..So a 12 x 17 piece of PVC in the box runs about $99.00 the same piece
on the bulk roll is $147.22......See if you can find boxed EPDM somewhere if
you can.........

All right, now I feel like a dork. I searched on-line and found nothing. I
never thought to look at the phone book. Technology...gets you every time.

Two years ago I bought my liner from Water Garden Creations with no
shipping and delivered to the door and the price was good. Good luck.

Thats the company that I bought my pond equipment from... they were great,
and the prices were right... They are associated with Anjon liner. Jon

There's the old standby, call up any local roofing contractor, and ask them
where they buy their supplies, or ask the foremen on the job, the next time
you see someone working on a roof.

Out here in California, there seem to be a ton of roofing supply companies
in the phonebook

I found local suppliers, all carry EDPM with fungicide additive. Made me
wary of using it.

This can be so even with other forms of roofing, depends on what part of
the country you live in. Good advice to check in to it. ~ jan

I sourced roofing liner from a local farm supplies company who could
supply 100'x20' sheets around the $90 mark last year.
At a local Lowes the stuff is on the shelf.

Theres a lot of misinformation put out there by folk who would sell
you the same stuff at 10x the price at other places.

They will babble fungicide, poison, oil, anything to make you think
only the pricey 'pond liner' is the right stuff

It isnt, get over it, get to make an honest living in the real world
lol

As with any material suitable for making a pond, open it up, rinse it
off, when installed, age the pond water long enough for algae and
'normal' aquatic insects to colonise the pond, before putting a few
test fish in...

It may depend upon the brand and specific product.

A roofing supplier I called explicitly said not to use the product he
carries. He tried it himself, the specific product was formulated to leach
fungicide for years. Killed everything on it's surface for a summer, till he
ripped it out.

No doubt there are safe ones, just knowing which is the problem.
