Good evening from Brittany;
That's just to inform you that I've finished my own pond with a cascade this week. I've found (of course) a lot of inspiration from your excellent and beautiful work;
Yesterday, i've tested the cascade; it looks good and nice;
My daughter Maïwenn is so happy and she told me to to thank you
I need for this pond a pump and a filter because Maï wants to see fishes in next april (3 maxi);
For my part, I started to put aquatics and edges plants
have a good continuation!
I'd never considered changing the pump position in summer / winter, but that makes a great deal of sense. Every day's a school day!
That sounds like a very practical way of covering them up. I'd honestly never thought of doing that but maybe there are situations where it would be required so that's a great tip, thanks, man.
Thank you. I'm glad you have used some of the information in my videos to make your pond.
It is good that the cascade works well as that is sometimes the most difficult part to get right.
Best wishes,
Richard
I'm from North East England, just (a long way) over the sea from you.
Thanks for watching and appreciating the videos.
I'm still a newbie with this pond stuff mate. You learn something new everyday lol. Cheers

If I am passing I will get an update but that will be in the Spring. Glad you found the video useful and are looking to build something similar.
I'm not sure about it not feeling like I do a days work - getting wet and cold every day for 6 months of the year soon gets wearing - lol.
I put my back out on the first day of this build and had to do the rest in pain. Its either do that or don't get paid which is the main drawback of working for yourself - what a bummer.
OMG having just finished my own pond did I come across this video. What we built is so identical it is spooky. I didn't do videos but I did take numerous photos so I will try to do a photo/vid to show you. Excellent work and excellent video.
Beautiful! You make this look so simple. Thank you for sharing this simple, concise, easy to follow video:)
All because of u Richard...My 2nd pond attemt has been a total success! Many thanks ma man! :-)
Awesome video guy. You got yourself a new subscriber!
No worries, man. Glad you enjoyed the video. I wish I had more tome to make instructional videos as they are always quite popular.
What a wonderful idea for a pond!! I really like the inlay look. This gives me the idea for a wrap around pond for my deck. Thank you for posting!

Just to add a bit of contrast. I originally used decking and it looked very flat.
Definitely, yes. Its full of nitrates and organic matter which is an awesome fertiliser especially for vegetables. You're spot on there.
Excellent video. I've watched several of your videos now and I'm getting very inspired!
Thanks
i love how you explain everything to a detail . Well done mate , i just subscribed
No worries and I'm glad you enjoy the videos.
That looks nice. With water plants and koi fish what a lovely garden.
Nice job!!! Love how you insulated the walls.
Top job again. Your videos inspired my own pond build earlier this year.
Hello, I've just seen your last video about the raised wooden pond. il feel really impressed by your skillness. I listened to your explanations and, as far as possible, tried to understand them (I'm not from England).
This pond looks like a mirror and,sure, will be very appreciated by his owner.
You are an artist!
No worries, man. Glad you enjoyed the video and best of luck with your own pond project.
Beautiful, well thought out, quality work! Especially liked the way you incorporated leftover materials into the new build. I'm sure your clients appreciated that, as well!
Also, you are very good at explaining your reasoning and techniques and materials used. Very good video!
Cheers from the US!
I'm glad you found the video useful - thanks for watching.
Nice video, very informative. I enjoy watching someone explain what they are doing, at least someone who actually knows what they are talking about. So many videos are from folks who haven't a clue. I don't even "have" an aquarium or pond but I find it interesting how you construct them, each installation being custom to the surroundings. Again, thanks for some great videos. peace
Thats great to hear and best of luck with your pond keeping. I always like to get feedback when people have used something I've had in a video.
Thanks for watching and appreciating the videos.
This was a great pond to build so thanks for watching and appreciating the video.
It is going down quite well with viewers.
That's a really nice neat tidy job, very impressed, i'm currently building one myself. well done mate.
No worries - glad you enjoyed the video. Best of luck with your project.
thank you for this video its one of my projects this summer some good useful tips THANK YOU
No worries, I'm glad you found it useful as I really enjoyed putting this video together.
I have just found your videos thank you so much... Great explaining. Now i want one
Hi pondguru! I really love the way you set this pond up and I’m thinking about making one now! I’m going to be making mine right above the soil and I’m afraid the wood will rot. Any tips to prevent that?
Wow, you are amazing. Well talented. Normally I just watch you're metal detecting video's, but these video's are also amazing. Great job keep up the good work.
I'm disabled. Excellent idea for my patio so I can view from my wheelchair 😁👍
Great video, you explained it really well, I'm looking at building almost exactly the same pond as in your video accept it won't be on top of decking. Really impressed that 2 foot high walls made of wood are strong enough to support that volume of water. I'm planning my pond same as yours but 2.4 x 1.4 x 1.2 meters deep and you've just given me some great ideas, Thanks :)
Enjoyed the clips pal..Looking to sort a pond sometime next year when i got the garden straight , used to have a large koi pond at me old place
I've done a few jobs in Jesmond.
This one was just over the river at Gateshead.
Plants don't need any oxygenation in the pond but if you intend to have fish in there too it would be beneficial for them to have water movement.
A pump and filter which runs 24/7 is always better than a temporary fountain so if there's any way of getting electricity to the pond it would be advantageous.
Most solar fountains / pumps are very unreliable just like the English 'summer'.
Thanks for the sub, man.
Well done great video on how to build a raised pond very good explanation many thanks
Loved the video mate. Cheers from Texas.
I love your video. I enjoyed watching how step by step to construct a pond. Thank you and keep coming with those new design.
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it.
No worries, man. Would like to see that project.
Nice one.
Thanks for watching and appreciating the video, man.
Fantastic video really helpful looking forward to having ago at making one in my garden thanks for taking the time to up this video great work
I really enjoyed watching this video build....you've done a fantastic job.
Glad you found it useful - thanks for watching.
Yes we normally keep bricks on the folds while the pond is filling and that allows the water to press them down, than the bricks can be removed. Tension on the upright folds can keep them flat, no worries. Its just trial and error and if you're not used to laying liner you may need to drain and refill to get it right. We never glue the liner but it can be done if the liner is clean and dry.
Thanks for your reply. Love the channel. Keep up keeping on.
Another great video, well done.
Groovy, hope it went well.
good self filming and doing the job and all good . all over a nicely done job.
That filter cleaning is brilliant
Thanks for the big-up, man.
Fantastic Richard 👏
I love watching your videos
Looks amazing mate 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Beautiful work!
Thanks for taking time to watch, much appreciated.
I like this video nice pond, thought the filter system was very interesting looks extremely easy to clean.
Another great job you make it look so easy to do...
If I hadn't have had plenty of practice building ponds I'd say that I edit out all the mistakes, lol
I shouldn't have watched this. I have to build my own now. Awesome job. Looks great!!
I love watching smart video contents! Good on ya sir!
Beautifully done my friend
hi pondguru, absolutely superb been looking and looking for an above pond for the house we rent in as we cant build a brick one as if owner sells we cant remove this is spot on within my capabilities as a di wyer {sorry pet had to put that in } as always explained and videoed superbly cant wait to show the wife been on to me for ages to build one ,keep up the work what a job bet it feels you never work a day in your life you are so lucky cant wait for the update with the fish in ,ian
Very informative and entertaining. Thank you for sharing.
Nicely done, I would have liked to see it finished with plants and fish :)
Insulation was just standard 2" insulation from builders merchant and the underlay is 300g / sq. m polyfelt from Gordon Low (same manufacturer / wholesaler which supplies the liner)
Sure enjoyed the video, thanks for filming it, Will have to give it a try.
Brilliant videos and very informative. I'm almost ready to tackle my own pond restoration project. It needs a new underlay and liner, along with a pump and filter. I've decided to use the
Auto Cleaning Pressurised Pond Filter PFC-75000 With Built-In 55w from ALL POND SOLUTIONS.
Might even have a bash at making my own gravity shower.
Keep up the good work and take care.
Cheers,
John
Beautiful Job very well explained. Congratulations !
North East England.
Thanks for watching and appreciating the video.
Nice work mate
I missed that bit out but by looking at it the supports went from side to side then the uprights were banged down and secured to the outer edge. Supports for the shelf went back to surrounding 2" x 2" and also had pegs resting on top of concrete. Then top was screwed on.
I'm new to pond ownership and looking to make improvements to my raised pond.
I really enjoyed your explanations. Your attention to detail and methodical approach clearly led to a great finished result. Thank you for sharing your expertise.
(my other channel) No worries and I'm glad you found the video useful - best of luck with the pond project.
That is bad ass. Nice work
brilliant.modern and easy to maintain.
It varies and I price every job as a separately. Some of the earlier comments may have a figure on but I can't remember how much it was.
No worries, man. I was pleased with this one.
great video mate
Yes, that would work. I suppose there isn't any need to go with foundation as a first stage so whatever you are happiest doing.
Another great pond thanks for sharing
Great work 👏
great video i have 2 in-ground ponds. but i all ways wanted one on my deck. now i can build with confidants after watching this ty
No worries - glad you found the video useful. Best of luck with your project.
nice video guru. I like the idea
Great video very Intresting! keep up the good work
great video as always!
Excellent video👍🏻
So I've been watching your videos for hours over the last few days, I love this one really want to do it myself, shame your in Newcastle els I'd have you come to bristol can't fault your designs and expertise
great video bloke,step by step and no bullshit
What an awesome video. And I say that as someone with no intention of getting, nor any interest in, water tanks
Great idea love it might build one off these this summer cheers dave
emoh8765 Glad you enjoy the videos as I love making them.
If they are left running over the winter they should not freeze but if they are to be turned off it's always best to drain them of water to prevent any ice damage,
Beautiful work! To hide the jubilee clips (and protect small hands from cuts), wrap them with a strip of the Firestone liner 4" wide and 8" long, and secure with a black nylon zip-tie on either end around the tube. You can remove them by snipping the zip-ties. And the rubber strips are reusable. Cheers!
Great job it look awesome🙂
Thank you.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
Very nice build!
Thanks for watching and appreciating the videos.
Your videos are awesome man, definetley jealous of your job lol
I would go for a nexus but add extra hel-x to top up the K1. UV filter would be 110 watt and pump would depend on waterfall / cascade etc.
nice video thanks, the filter looks good do they do similar for a indoor tank ??
I should make a note of the cost when I upload each pond video as once week has passed by I've no idea. I think it was under 2k including labour?
No worries. Provided the carpet is acrylic (not natural fibres) it should be OK but if it is hessian backed or woolen you may have a problem with it rotting and producing gas which can cause the pond liner in the base to rise up like a bubble. Seen this on a few occasions when the gas has nowhere to go. One was raised above water level in a huge bubble and looked awesome. luckily it had been put in by someone else, lol
Thanks for watching and appreciating the videos.
No worries. Thanks for watching and appreciating the video.
The fact that the marine ply extends down under existing deck level goes a long way to increasing strength and making the sides very rigid - no flex at all from them.
I don't cover the clips but if they had to be covered then I'd probaly use electricians tape secured with a cable tie?
