render channel = sika1 sand and cement and paint pond with 2 part epoxy black A1 pond paint.


was that the customers choice? I recently re rendered a pond using sharp and soft sand, wizard fibres and waterproofer. Looks much better than black.
Did your method once, it failed, so i had to overpaint with liquid rubber

We need to see the trowel LLL it is silver init!

Spot on steve you need to go on master mind
" and your specialist subject is... Blindfold stone identification sold and imported in the uk using only my left little finger !"

Anyway groundwork wrapped up tomorrow I hope! large land drain gone in to divert water running off the fields and vehicles dragging mud over the new cobbles. Electric boys dropped some over head cables the week before and it's back filled with tar planing's so it's acting as a large soak away with know where to go its going under the drive now to the duck pond through 2 road gullies so that should sort the silt out!

Nice job. I see you used longer feather edge than the norm.
12 bags of post fix is expensive. Why not ballast and cement?
I reaise sometimes that stuff is great, but it comes at a price,!
