Size Guide
To calculate the liner size you need:
- Liner length = pond length + (2 × max depth) + 0.6m
- Liner width = pond width + (2 × max depth) + 0.6m
For example, a 1m × 1m pond 0.2m deep needs a 2m × 2m liner (1m + 0.4m + 0.6m), while a 1m × 2m pond of the same depth needs the 2m × 3m liner.
Installation Tips for Small Ponds
- Dig your pond shape and remove all sharp stones and roots
- Add a layer of sand (25–50mm) to protect the liner base
- Lay the liner loosely, working from centre to edges
- Fill slowly with water — the weight helps the liner settle
- Trim excess, leaving 300mm overlap around the rim
- Secure under turf, decking, paving slabs or decorative stones

How Much Liner Do I Need?
Measure the longest length, the widest width and the deepest point of the pond, then for each direction:
Liner length = pond length + (2 x maximum depth) + 0.6m
Liner width = pond width + (2 x maximum depth) + 0.6m
The extra 0.6m gives a 30cm overlap on every edge for anchoring. Round up to the next available size; sizes work either way round.

Is underlay included?
No. Underlay is sold separately. Lay a geotextile underlay over the prepared, stone-free base first, ordered in the same size as the liner, then lay the liner on top.
