Resealing a concrete pond. What to use?

[coryjac0b]

My father in law has a pond in his backyard that has been dry for quite some time, it was installed by the previous owner of the house who used to breed tropical fish. It is setup to have different sections with dividers. I believe he wants to remove the dividers to make it all one large section.

Regardless, there are several cracks in the pond, some large, what would be used to fill in the large cracks. And also what would be used to seal any hairline cracks.


TIA

Pond Armor seems like good stuff for sealing and taking care of hairline cracks.

Here's instructions from their site on repairing larger cracks prior to sealing.

I Like the concrete idea! Have someone come and skim and finish it.

I would put another skim coat over the whole pond with a thin layer of concrete to fill all the voids and cracks, then seal it with pondcoat

PondArmor/ Pond Shield looks to be a great choice in this project. You should repair the larger cracks with cement then coat entire pond with Pond Shield.
