Garden pond building
Some important pond building considerations
Undecided about whether to build a pond? Then go to this
page first. If you're already convinced - then read on! Are
there small children in the family? If so, consider building a small
pebble pond feature with fountain until the children are older.
Water is a fascination to children and even a shallow pond in the
garden can have fatal consequences. The Safapond website explains how to safeguard existing ponds.
Do I have room
for a garden pond? Decidedly - yes! Even the smallest gardens
have room for a pebble pond, a small sink pond or a half
barrel pond. |

Do you want a pond to attract wildlife or a pond stocked with
goldfish or koi carp? Wildlife and fish ponds are rarely compatible.
Will the pond be surrounded by trees or deep shade? Leaves can
be troublesome in the autumn and few pond plants will grow well
unless there is adequate light.
Is the garden on a sloping site? Streams or cascades can look
effective, but a built up waterfall on a flat site can look out
of place.
