The Zeeman Building at the University of Warwick is new, and a bespoke pond system was constructed in the pedestrian area to its front. A sub-contractor lined this project a year ago with a HDPE system. It quickly failed and under a year later, we were contracted to replace it. We tendered and won the contract to reline […]

Grantham Model Boating Lake
Following on from our success at the Warwick University pond project, we were asked if we could line the refurbished boating lake at Grantham. A small but detailed job in sunny weather with lots of interested public made this a real pleasure to complete. Since completion, use of this derelict space has been rejuvenated and the […]
Uley Insurance Reline
Recent storms caused the limb of a Monterey Pine to snap off and puncture their 24 x 8m pond. Insured, Turtle was called in to assess and then repair. The original liner was butyl and old, so the best, guaranteed way of repairing was to replace the liner. Working with our friends from B.D.Westby Groundworks […]
Swimming Pond, Norfolk
Inspired by the job in Buckinghamshire, this client desperately wanted a swimming pond for their property in Norfolk. They were on a limited budget, had the manpower and therefore wanted our Consultation and Liner Welding Services. Happy to oblige! We think the photos tell a perfect story – guiding the client through various stages of […]
Quarry Trout Lake Salisbury
Three years ago, we were asked whether a lake could be dropped into this 6.5m deep quarry, that flooded with natural groundwater in the winter. “Sure”, we said and after a long, protracted planning application and about three months of muck-away lorries filling in, the hole was formed. Liner supply shortages meant we had our […]
High Wycombe Wildlife Lake
We were asked to create this beautiful lake on the corner of our clients’ property. On the edge of a woodland, there was a natural depression which ‘could’ have been a historical lake. After planning permission was obtained, the client had the area prepared for us and we worked alongside to create this beautiful area. […]
Swimming Pond Berkshire
We were asked to line this 18 x 22m new-build swimming pond in Berkshire. With a clear plan of how they wanted it to look, we provided much initial consultancy on the design and mechanics, with onward advice to the builder during its construction phase. The swim zone measures 15 x 3m with a maximum […]
Rotting Deck Replaced With A New, Spacious Outdoor Living Space
We were referred by a neighbour whose deck we’d replaced a few years ago, to see if we could help here. A narrow, rotting, 2m wide deck bought little to the garden, and the fence was falling over. We expanded the deck to 3m wide and created a new flight of steps off to the […]
His Dark Materials Season 3
We were asked if we could support Pioneer Services and create this lagoon for the TV series His Dark Materials. Filmed over in Cardiff and constructed during the Covid era, Turtle provided their same standards of care and levels of service to help our client and the film production company meet tight timescales in a […]

Turtle Productions are pleased to announce that Ethan, Philip and Ryan join the team in the next two weeks. We wish them well and look forward to working with them
Lake Restoration
We were asked by the agents of this fine property to assist with the restoration of their lake. Working in conjunction with the agent and groundworker, we re-designed the shape and depths taking into account the failed butyl liner which was removed. Pleased to see under-lake land-drains in place, the groundworker did a superb job […]
Cleaning And Restoring 13,000-Litre Pond In Cheltenham
We were tasked with cleaning and restoring this 13,000-litre pond in Cheltenham. As you can see from the original plant growth and old filter, a cull was needed, and modern technology has radically shrunk the size requirements for new UVC filtration. This project took two days to complete For a free consultation and advice, please […]
