Customer Ratings:

• Nuts and Bolts. Exceptionally clear diagrams of how to construct pond edges and details, mixes of mortar/concrete, advice on materials. Also all the key info on basic plant selections, fish, and general equipment required such as pumps, filters, etc and the differences.
  
  Have found this the perfect book to work out what materials I need and how I am going to size it with depths for the various plants I will need.
  
  There are not loads of pictures to give you ideas or masses of info on every plant / fish option. It does include the basics that many other books some to forget about. If you are building the pond yourself this will save time in planning and help you avoid any mistakes. Well worth the money.
• Best DIY gardening book. Great service. Book cover damaged and worth the price. Happy to purchase from you again

If You are looking for a book that explains in detail how to design , prepare and execute nearly any water feature that You can imagine , then look no further .

Every one of its 80 pages can help anybody that is interested in having a pond or water feature....Buy it and enjoy it
• At last a book about ponds!. This book is terrific. Not just a another load of photos and blurb, but detailed information well put together. If you are about to build a pond (whether its your first one or your last one!) this is essential reading.
• Very detailed and very useful. This book covers every aspect of ponds, from deciding what to have and where through building to maintenance of the finished product. Very detailed with lots of information, and maybe just as important lots of diagrams and photos, before during and after projects.

  Although it may make pond-building look very complicated, everything is explained in step-by-step detail, complete with pros and cons, helpful hints and do-and-dont s. Even if you decide that the building side may not be your thing, this is still an excellent book for inspiration and has quite a few suggestions for maintenance which mean this would be a sound buy for anyone considering having a pond built for them by someone else.

  A very interesting read and it certainly gives you something to think about.
