|
Getting ready to build my first water garden. I think I'm going to need to join two pieces of flexible liner together. Can this be done? If so, what is the best thing to do it with? Preferably something I can get at a hardware store. Thanks in advance.

You can purchase either tape to do the job for you or silicone sealer. Neither is exactly inexpensive but well worth the money. I have used the tape (double sided) and haven't had a leak at a join yet. It also has the advatage that it has no smell and water can be added to the pond almost immediatly. I would advise Googling for the tape as it may be cheaper online.

Thanks for the info,Eileen. How long have you had the tape in place?

Erm now let me think ...... about four or five years so far. The stuff I bought has a 25 year guarantee so well worth the initial expense.
