Leaky Pond Follow-Up

Four weeks ago, Don looked at an ornamental garden pond that had sprung a leak. The water level had dropped and the water plants were dying back. The owners were not getting any enjoyment from the pond, because it was always half empty and they were spending their lives topping it up with water. Don cleaned out the fishpond and sealed it using ‘Maxplug’ and ‘Maxseal Flex’, new waterproofing products from Drizoro.

This week, Don checked the pond and reported that the Drizoro products seem to be working. The pond is no longer leaking. The fish have settled in well, and the water plants are thriving. The pond has also ‘dirtied in’ and lost that stark look it had when it was first cleaned out.

Don will keep an eye on the pond and if it leaks in the weeks and months ahead, he’ll let you know.
