What is the best way to fix a plastic preformed pond?

Posted by Pond Keeper

I was thinking silicone or melting plastic to repair the holes and cracks please let me know of any suggestions. Thanks!

Depending on whether the pond is a fairly simple shape, you might try covering it with a butyl liner and just considering the preformed plastic as a base for this. Butyl will last for many years if you get good quality. Otherwise I’d go to a water garden store and ask for advice on sealants, but this might depend on how bad the damage was – it sounds from your description as if there’s quite a lot of problems. Maybe you need to remove the preformed plastic and start again. If you don’t get a good liner in place, you will undoubtedly get more problems in the near future and will disturb all your plants and wildlife when you have to fix it again.
