Boy did Dr. Saul ever hit that one on the head! When we enlarged our pond 2 years ago, I found that the prices on the internet were about 1/2 of what my local garden store sells the pond liner for. Also, there was an extra charge for off loading the liner from the truck and the liner would stay where it was off loaded - it would have been our responsibility to get the liner to where we needed it to be.

My husband is disabled and I have disc problems - it was well worth the extra couple of hundred dollars for us to order liner locally. She did give us a rake off and when the liner was delivered, they brought it into my back yard where we needed it to be. We were then able to get all of our children and friends here on a day of our own convenience to take out the old liner and install the new. We had a number of people to help and it turned into quite the party!

45 mil should be 45 mil regardless, so it is whatever you can handle. Best of luck to you in what ever you choose.

Looking forward to pictures of your installation and the completed pond!
