Well, here we go again! I think this is either the 4th or 5th leak that we've tackled in the last 3 1/2 years. Here are our previous pond dam repair videos of the same pond dam:

In case your wondering why so many leaks, it is because the original (aka "Old Pond") pond dam has grown over with large trees from probably 20 to 30 years of neglect. So with the tree roots completely entangled in the pond dam, it tends to cause leaks from the tree roots. But since we could not afford to have the whole Old Pond dam torn down and rebuilt we decided to take our chances and tackle the leaks as they come. It could have lasted one year, or who knows another 30 years, no one really knows. So join me for a look at the new leak, and how we have tackled fixing a prior leak.
