To calculate the size of your pond liner, follow these basic steps:

1. Measure the Dimensions of Your Pond:

  • Length: Measure the length of your pond at its longest point.
  • Width: Measure the width at the widest point.
  • Depth: Measure the depth at the deepest point.

2. Account for the Sides:

  • Add the depth to both the length and the width measurements. This ensures that the liner will cover both the bottom and the sides of the pond.
  • For example:
    • If your pond is 4m long, 3m wide, and 1m deep, your liner will need to cover 6m (4m + 1m + 1m) in length and 5m (3m + 1m + 1m) in width.

3. Add Extra for Overlap:

  • It’s a good idea to add 10-20% extra to the total size of the liner to allow for flexibility, especially if you have irregular shapes or want extra material to fold over the edges.

4. Shape Considerations:

  • If your pond has curved edges or is an irregular shape, you may need to adjust the calculation accordingly, ensuring that all curves and sides are covered.
