Building a pond is a lot more than just digging a hole in the ground.
Soil type, drainage, water flow, bank slopes, and spoil placement all play a big role in whether a pond turns out right or turns into a problem later on.
Clay, sand, and topsoil all have to be handled differently, and planning the layout around the pond is just as important as the digging itself.
A properly built pond can add value to your property and last for generations.
