52 Tips for Selecting a Pond kit, Pond Construction and Maintenance(16)

22. How do we hide the liner around the edge?

When we excavate the pond hole, the next thing is to cut a step around the entire pond. This step should be about a foot wide and about 3 inches deep. If you like, you can add dirt around the perimeter to make the 3-inch rise. The final product should look like a backsplash on the kitchen counter. The line will go on the step and over the backsplash. When we place rocks on the ledge and have the water level about 1.5” above the shelf, all the rocks will have their feet wet and none of the liner is visible above the water level. Be sure to include in you square footage when you dig the hole. It is a lot easier to dig more than to replace the dirt.
