Old Basin for a Po

Inscrit le: 29 Mai 2007 Messages: 1

Perhaps someone know English and can help:

I have an old stone basin, about 5 x 3m that was once used to hold water for animals etc...I would like to convert it to a small pool. What can I use to hold the water so it doesn't escape through the cracks? How can I keep the water clean?

Thanks.

Hi Colin... I am sorry I cannot help directly but I will translate your message. Welcome on the forum!

Je possède un vieux bassin de pierre, d'environ 5 mètres par 3 qui était utilisé
autrefois pour retenir l'eau pour les animaux. Je souhaiterais le convertir en petite mare. Comment consolider le bassin afin que l'eau ne s'écoule pas par les fissures? Comment maintenir la propreté de l'eau?

Merci.

WOW ... another international member ... I really have to create an english part for this forum Razz

To hold the water, the problem is that you will probably have to do little work in your basin, either put some concrete in the holes or install a "lino" ( thin plastic membrane ) in the bottom ... but both solution will alterate the authenticity of your stone basin ... Confused

To clean the water with eco-friendly products, I found few products but very expensive, maybe this one could be OK Confused
