Is your pond losing water? Most likely there is a crack or a waterproofing issues that you don’t know about. To identify the problem, the pond often needs to be emptied, which is why its best to inspect your fish pond when you are doing your regular cleaning.

What Causes Waterproofing To Fail?

There are numerous reasons waterproofing can begin to fail, not all are avoidable.

  • Age, waterproof membranes generally last between 5-10 years.
  • Sunlight and extreme exposure can cause the lining to break down.
  • Pond shape. Sharp turns, odd curves – all this can cause weak spots in the waterproofing making cracks over time more prevalent.
  • Water pressure and weight can also cause cracking over time.
  • Tree roots growing into the pond
  • Changes in temperature.
