Here is a call for some help and advise .
I am building a pond but I have a big problem with ground water my pond depth is around 3 feet deep. Long storey cut short is I built a breeze block pond deep in the ground. I experienced ground water flooding the pond. So I had to rip out the concrete floor and dig deep and removed about 2-1 feet of clay soil and then filled 2-1 feet in with hardcore. I then expanded the pond and made it bigger but did decide to put more hardcore down to soak up water.
The big problem I have is the factory building behind my house is dumping all its water off its roof in guttering that is going into my garden and flooding it. I made some youtube videos talking about the problems I am having please watch the videos and let me know what you think .
Please leave me a comment on the videos for any advise you can give many thanks.
