Q: Can this barrier be shaped in a circle or semi-circle after it is filled?

The Standard (4" high) and Ultras (6" high) are capable of some movement and re-positioning after they are filled. The Supreme and Titan sizes are too heavy and cannot be moved after being filled. Creating a complete circle with a single barrier would not be recommended however moving each end to create a U type shape is quite common. For the larger tubes we recommend you place the tubes in the place and shape that you want and then fill them.

Q: How well does this work filling with a garden hose as opposed to buying the adapter?

I fill mine with a garden hose. You just have to hold the hose against the opening to prevent being sprayed. It works fine.

Q: Do these work on bare ground or grass, Or do they need to be on concrete as pictured?

I would think they would work on both. I planned to use on concrete but taking them out of the package I think they will work on both. Easier than sandbags and made out of heavy plastics.

Q: Do your barriers absorbs the water that seeps unto surfaces and absirbs them until you ade ready to dispose of it?

These barriers do NOT absorb the water. It just help block the water from going to certain areas. As the picture to the left shows a barrier in front of a garage door, the barrier will help keep the water from going under the garage door.
