Spider's garden pics
"Janet Baraclough" wrote in message ... The message from "Spider" contains these words: Hello everyone! With some considerable help from my IT manager (RG), I've finally put a few pics on the web for all to see. Try the link below: http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/Spider.AAG Nice ponds. Do they have a plastic lining or did you waterproof the building material? Janet Thank you, Janet. There is no plastic lining. The base was cast in one piece (it is 9-10" thick), then walling blocks made the walls; coping stones capped it. Then, before filling with water we used a bitumen sealant, not to waterproof it, but to seal the walls to prevent lime leaching into the water. That sealant wore off in little more than a year, but the pond is still water-tight, 15 years later. We kept fish for a few years (till the local heron scoffed them) and they were healthy and happy, so we can only assume the water was safe by then. Spider |
