This is my pond after a MAJOR re-construction job this summer. After the vinyl liner failed on my beloved pond, I had to completely re-do the pond. Instead of just replacing the liner, I completely reconstructed the pond out of concrete. It's going to take a while for the plants to recover on the perimeter of the pond, but when they do, the pond itself will look better and darn well better last longer! The whole re-construction project probably took me about two months, total. Hopefully, it will have been worth it in the end. Whew!
