The WoodBlocx product is a superb and simple concept. It works so well, like all the best things in life. I would recommend it to everyone. The quality of the service is excellent too.
The process from initial enquiry to delivery could not have been easier. I would recommend speaking to a designer FIRST or sticking to either a 'standard' or 'existing' design for your order. I wasted (my own) time coming up with my own design concept, hoping to have the design team translate it into their 'product' only to have it explained how my design would not work (I should have paid more attention during physics!). Better to ask first, or better still look at what others have done before. Tried and tested was actually better!
The online videos are well worth looking at. It made assembly on the day so much quicker.
We bought a heavier duty Hozelock pond liner, which because of a range of offers available on 'tInternet' at the time was both larger and cheaper than the WoodBlocx version. It is well worth having the extra area available, as it is very easy to cut back any excess, but you cannot make it bigger and it was surprising how much was used up when filled with water and the water pressed it into all the nooks and crannies. Dont scrimp on the liner.
Congratulations to WoodBlocx - You have a great product and offer a great service. 'I will be back' and I will be recommending you to all.

I bought a pond kit, which arrived 'complete' promptly as promised and looks superb now that it is up and 'running'. I bought the ratchet cutter as I had all the other tools I needed already. Worth the £8 as using a saw, or normal cutters, would have taken WAY LONGER! Dont forget it's only the TOP row of plugs (immediately under the capping blocks) that you need to cut. We almost missed that point. I would highly recommend putting sand, or carpet (as per the photographic instructions) underneath the liner to protect it from stones and sharp objects.

We were actually able to dig out a 'deep' end, effectively below ground level. Giving us a larger volume pond.Great for the fish in excessively cold winters.
