Having some issues with a newer pond and need to find someone that really knows what they are doing to get me out of the situation I have been put into. Thanks!!!

He was back this spring and again during the summer (at my expense) with the leak now worse than before. The contractor is now "out of ideas" so I am looking for some recommendation from those of you that might know of someone with better experience. I am am in Beaver County and about 30 minutes from the airport.

The only ponds that I know of that have little to no leaks are ones that have been built in good clay soil, or have had clay properly compacted 18"+ thick everyplace that the water would touch. www.hoosierpondpros.com http://www.pondboss.com/subscribe.asp?c=4 3/4 to 1 1/4 ac pond LMB, SMB, PS, BG, RES, CC, YP, Bardello BG, (RBT & Blue Tilapia - seasonal).
