Daughter had a water fall and pond installed recently. Cosmetically looks great. However she was floored by the $350 water bill for a month. The pond is half an ellipsoid and hold maybe 600 gallons. I suspected a leak so I turned off the water supply and within less than 10 hours the pond totally emptied, dry as a bone. Obviously there is a serious leak at the very bottom where the pump is installed. The pond has a plastic liner and cement wall. Builder wants to seal with epoxy coat to repair. I am not inclined to advise her to accept this patchwork because it seems clear to me that the plastic liner is also torn. The speed of the emptying process makes me wonder if she is on a fault line! Soliciting opinions and thoughts, please. Thank you, Seamus J. Wilson
