Author Topic: Shopping for my new liner (Read 2634 times)

luvmyasagis · « **on:** April 17, 2007, 05:27:25 AM »

I have been looking around for my new liner every one local to me is giving me prices that range from 677. to about 800. I think they have lost their mind I can get one from justliners.com with freight shipping for 390. And it is a 45 mil epdm liner.I guess it pays to shop around.This past weekend I was able to get some nice 10" blocks for 1.00 each I will post pics. of those later Home depot wanted 1.50 each for 8" plain concrete blocks. The Atlanta koi club is having a koi auction in May and they are gonna have some supplies that members not longer need for sale as well, so I will be making the three hour trip for that and hopefully I will be able to get some other items I need. Then after the auction they are gonna have an overflow sale maybe some good deals on some nice koi.

Have you looked into rubber roofing?
That is what I use, and many others as well. And it shouldn't cost nearly as much.

Good luck,
Steve

What size liner are you looking for? I did a lot of research before getting my last liner. I got a 20x20 for $190

luvmyasagis · « **Reply #3 on:** April 17, 2007, 07:07:36 AM »

I have not even thought of that. What size mil is it do you know? And does it come with any certain warranty? It is for a pond that is gonna be around 10,000 gallons maybe a little more, where is the best place to buy it. rcr203 I am thinking 25x30 that is why it has to be freight shipped that is the 90.00 of the 390.

Go to a local roofing company and talk with them.

They will have what you need.

Yellow Pages

check this out, many different sizes, but you could get this anywhere. there are different types, and thicknesses.

Here is my blocks we got for the pond wall that will be above ground.

azponds.com is a good place to get a liner if you don't have a local place to pick one up.

As a comparison, their 20x20 was $152, but with shipping came to $210. I got it at my local store, Brochs, for $190.

AZ has 25x30 for $262 plus shipping.

Send me a size that you need and I may be able to drop ship cheaper to you. (I buy wholesale)

When I get home this evening... I will get you a price. (I will have to call and get a quote from my distributor shipped.) What's your zip?

Bonnie · « **Reply #11 on:** April 17, 2007, 11:24:09 AM »

From what I've researched and found, Rubber roofing only comes in 20' widths unless you special order, then they want you to buy a whole roll.

We're just getting ready to put down new liner because we seamed before and have a major leak so I definately will not seam again.
We need a 30'x 35' and found a place in Cincy that has 45 ml Firestone PondGard EPDM Pond Liner for $429.99 which is the cheapest that I have found within reasonable driving distance.

If anyone can sell cheaper.. I'll definately buy from them! (hint saycheesse)

Bonnie I have ran into the same problem of them wanting me to buy a whole roll. So unless saycheese can find me one cheaper it looks like I may be buying from justliners.com. The cheapest I have found so far.

Bonnie · « **Reply #14 on:** April 17, 2007, 11:51:40 AM »

I checked the place in Cincy for you and it would cost $104.50 to ship to you, going by your zip code in your post. The total would be $404.49 so justliners is cheaper......

My source is bestnest.com which I'd never heard of until last year but luckily I won't have to pay shipping if I choose them.

saycheessee · « **Reply #15 on:** April 17, 2007, 03:13:33 PM »

If I can get them shipped to my house. Would anyone be interested in picking a liner up? I'm waiting on the distributor to call me back with drop ship prices and also prices straight to my house.

luvmyasagis · « **Reply #16 on:** April 17, 2007, 04:22:15 PM »

unless it is very very cheap by the time I put gas in my Yukon or more than likely hubbys truck it will be cheaper to have it shipped plus I am 3 hours from Memphis and then ever how far you are from there.

Depends on what part of KY you are from......

PondmaninAL · « **Reply #18 on:** April 17, 2007, 05:36:40 PM »

Yeah, Kentucky would be a little far for me to pick up a 16x10' liner.

Happy ponding,
Scott

Scott, you can do that then come on up to IN and help me build another lily pond!

I haven't heard anything back yet from my distributor. I left a message with my rep tonight and she is suppose to call me back in the morning. I'll let you know how much then.

saycheessee · « **Reply #21 on:** April 21, 2007, 05:19:34 AM »

Ok, my rep got back with me yesterday and you can buy it cheaper from someone else than me. WAAAA... they want 795.00 for a 30x50 liner and 457.00 for a 25x30. And that's my petshop price. WOW no wonder we go broke!
I have found koi really cheap though if anyone's wanting some. But they are sold in box lots only so that my price stays down.

No disrespect but find yourself a new distributor!
Even at retail price, a 25x30 is $299.99

That's why I don't buy alot from them... but they do drop ship. I haven't ordered a liner from them yet.

Have you checked
www.watergardencreations.com
I got my liner there and If I remember coreectly, shipping is included in the price and it was the cheapest I found.

20x 35 there costs $460 she would be better going with just liners for $390

My liner got picked up yesterday.. keep your fingers crossed that the weather will cooperate and no more rain so the bottom can dry out enough to put the liner in.

Oh that's great Bonnie, I'll keep my fingers crossed for ya! Keep us posted with pix of your progress!
