Prepare The Area
Once the area is leveled and cleared, use a string to outline the desired pond shape. This is your guide for digging.

Dig It!
Dig a hole to the desired pond depth (18" - 24"), clear the surface of the hole of any rocks, roots, or other debris.

Line It & Fill It
Spread the flexible pond liner, fill with water, check for leaks, and condition the water.

Landscape & Enjoy It
If all is well, add plants, sit back, and enjoy!
