    Excellent pond company

    Posted 3 days ago

    Our pond had a leak and PLG Aquatics came out promptly and gave us a quote. They then fitted us in to have a new liner, remove debris and rebed the stones. The three guys carried out the work efficiently and professionally. They gave me loads of advice on how to look after the pond as well as various tips on how to attract nature eg hedgehogs to the garden! They were lovely and I thoroughly recommend them.

    Clear pond at last

    Posted 11 August

    After an initial phone conversation. We had a site visit where I was given a very professional run down of what the problem was with the pond and how to resolve it.

    Pond expert, highly recommended.

    Posted 08 August

    Phil & his team moved our fish from an existing pond, set up a holding pool and built us a new pond from scratch. His knowledge & expertise were second to none. Great communication from the off made this experience a joy. We are absolutely thrilled with the result, the build quality and materials sourced are absolutely spot on. I have to say if you want a pond, this guy is your man as he knows exactly what he is doing. I would recommend him 100% without hesitation.

    Complete Pond / Waterfall re-line after damage to liner

    Posted 17 May

    Phil was incredibly quick to respond to my initial enquiry, even though it was over the weekend which impressed me. He sent a quote through and after accepting the quote the work was completed within 3 weeks . The whole team were incredibly efficient, carrying out the complete job of moving the fish, emptying the pond, relining and reinstating the pond within 4 hours! Fish very happy and I would definitely recommend PLG Aquatics if you're looking for an efficient job done using good quality materials.

ponds relined.

pond,design built and Contructed


We specialise in creating Fibreglass lined ponds, no creases, choice of colour, very hard wearing.


We are a Ltd Company and travel a 40-mile radius from home.


I started the business on a part time basis in 1993 I was working full time and selling fish evenings and weekends throughout the spring / summer months.


I've built up a good knowledge of ponds, fountains and Water features.


I specialise in the following:-


  • Pond Construction
  • Water Features
  • Water Gardens
  • Pond Maintenance/Cleaning
  • Free estimates

We as a company no longer sell fish but spend all our spare time travelling from town to town building, constructing and designing ponds / water features, also cleaning and maintaining ponds etc


The beauty of a pond is having crystal clear water, if this is not achieved, then what is the point in having a pond if you cannot see what’s in it!!!
