Rocks for water / rock features, rock pools and koi-ponds are constructed / created using 8mm steel rods covered with 13mm mesh and thereafter plastered with cement mortar to a thickness of ± 40mm’s.
Coprox or equivalent waterproofing is used in accordance with the relevant manufacturer’s specification to watertight water features.
As far as the inside of your koi-pond is concerned you will have the option of a rock finish or marbelite or a combination depending on your preference. |

| | Your pool will generally be dug manually in order to minimize damage to your garden or other valuable property/ies.
Pool shell will be re-inforced with 150mm mesh and 10mm steel re-inforcement spaced at 300mm intervals over the length, width and around the walls of the pool.
The shell will be casted to a thickness of ± 175mm in 30mpa concrete.
The colour of marbelite you have chosen will be applied according to the manufacturer’s specification.
The marbelite will be neatly joint with the rockwork on the walls of the pool. |
Return
| | Area will be leveled and compacted using the necessary mechanical aid/s or where it is possible / necessary manual compactor.
In areas where you have people traffic, paving will be done to a thickness of ± 70mm. Driveways are paved to a thickness of ± 90mm.
Expansion joints are provided in blocks of 1.5m x 3m in the case where you prefer a rock block finish. Should you decide on a rougher rock finish where each block is cut into a different shape and size, expansion joints are cut per block. |
Return
| | Depending on how smooth the surface of the wall is where the stone face must be done a slash coat (very wet mix of cement, river sand and plaster sand) will be applied to ensure that the final coat of plaster is secure.
The thickness of stone face plaster on walls is ± 35mm. |
Return
| | The cement mortar will be mixed to a ratio of 1:3 where 1 represents cement and 3 a combination of plaster and river sand.
Plaster key or equivalent is used as a bonding liquid in the cement mix if necessary.
Various colours of water based acrylic roof paint are sprayed on the rockwork blending a natural finishing colour that meets your requirement.
As a final touch and for some protection the paving work is sealed with a clear sealant containing the natural look. |
