Does a pond increase homeowners insurance?

• <div><p>Like pools, ponds can be a safety risk, so they may increase your homeowners insurance. Be sure to let your insurance company know if you <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-to-hire-to-create-a-pond-on-my-land.htm">build a pond on your property</a>—they may have safety requirements in order to keep your premium from increasing. </p></div>

Do ponds add to your home’s value?

• <div><p>In short, yes, a pond can add to your home’s value. However, whether it adds value will depend on the condition and aesthetic of your pond. Having this feature already built into a yard’s home can be appealing to homebuyers who value its aesthetic and would prefer not to build it themselves. But if it is not kept in good condition, it could turn buyers away.</p></div>

Q: How thick of a pond liner do I need?

• <div><p>In addition to length and width, pond liners also come in various thickness levels. Thickness is measured in mils, a unit of measurement equal to one-thousandth of an inch, with most pond liners ranging from 15 to 60 mils in thickness. The smaller the number, the thinner (and weaker) the liner. To prevent rips and tears, it&rsquo;s best to choose a pond liner that&rsquo;s at least 30 mils thick.</p></div>
