What types of ponds or water features do we work on?

We do not have a retail store or a walk in office. We are based out of my  home (Kristi’s home). 

💧 We clean, service, maintain, repair and build:

      • Small and medium size ponds (with or without fish) from 4′ x 4′ to 30′ x 30′.
      • Large pond over 30′ x 30′ to 200′ x 200′
      • Water garden ponds
      • Residential and commercial ponds.
      • Water features
      • Pondless waterfalls
      • Water fountains
      • Fire Protection ponds
      • We service ponds built with liner, concrete, bentonite or what ever it may have been built with. 
      • We do not build concrete ponds.  We use 45 mil epdm liner or bentonite.

Floating Fountains

Floating fountains are a beautiful and functional addition to a large pond. They aerate the water, create circulation, and become a stunning visual focal point. We help you choose the right fountain for your pond size and aesthetic — and we handle the installation too.

Solar Aeration

Solar aeration is a smart, cost-effective solution for large ponds. A solar-powered aerator keeps oxygen levels up, helps prevent fish kills, and reduces algae by keeping the water column moving. No electricity needed.

Debris Removal

Are there branches in the pond from nearby trees? Debris that has blown in is just feeding algae Water quality can be improved by removing debris so that your water has a fighting chance at staying clean and healthy.

Invasive Plant Mitigation

Here's the thing about large ponds and invasive plants: left unchecked, they win. Does your pond have Cattails, Bulrush or Hornwort? They can take over a large pond surprisingly fast. We can assess what you're dealing with, create a mitigation plan, and get to work.

Filtration

Big ponds need big filtration! We can advise you on what your pond needs, install the right filtration system for your pond from Intake Bays to skimmers and maintain it on a regular schedule.

Aquatic Plants

Advice, Installation & Care for aquatic plants can make all the difference. Did you know aquatic plants are the number one best natural water filter? Seriously. They outperform almost any mechanical filter. For a large pond, getting the plant situation right is one of the most impactful things you can do for long-term water quality.
