    Phil the Pond Doctor ……A genuine pond specialist who done a good job at a fair price.

    Posted 12 December

    Phil and his team have done an excellent job in just two days. Installing a 30 x 25 metre rubber liner which he supplied at a fair price. They also built me a 10 metre long rill/ waterfall within that time. I can’t fault the service. Phil the Pond knows his stuff and gives honest advice compared to those overpriced so called Swimming Pond specialists. I was quoted £160,000 for a pond by one of them! Phil has done it for a tenth of that price! Enough said!

    Phil and his team were fantastic. Came to clean my small garden pond and did so in less than an hour - very efficient. Phil was willing to share his knowledge with a “novice” which was greatly appreciated. Thanks Phil.

    My new pond has far exceeded my expectations!

    Posted 22 August

    I wanted a replacement for my existing wildlife pond as I was hoping to attract dragonflies, as well as find a larger home for my growing population of frogs. I wasn't entirely sure what I would need (beyond something bigger), but Phil went through everything with me & offered helpful advice & suggestions (always listen to him!). He provided all the plants I needed which meant I didn't need to stress about what to choose or how to site them. He also emptied my old pond & transferred wildlife. The work was very well done & I wouldn't hesitate to recommend PLG to friends & neighbours.

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!!!
