Why is My Pond Icky?

What if you could have a maintenance-free pond or waterfall? Unfortunately, ornamental water features typically require professional service to keep them balanced and pristine. A water feature is an investment. With proper maintenance, it is a very valuable one.  Regular maintenance is the difference between a stagnant, smelly pond and a soothing water feature that’s brimming with life. Here’s what professional pond and waterfall care offers, and why pond and waterfall maintenance is not a DIY job:

Protection against debris and organic waste

Maintaining ecological balance in your pond and waterfall is critical. Over time, debris from surrounding plants & trees can collect, sink, and form sludge in your pond and waterfall. If left unaddressed, this could result in harm to fish or other life in your pond and waterfall, and produce unwelcome odors. A deep annual cleaning preserves water clarity and keeps the plant and animal life in and around your pond healthy.

Proper materials, filters, and pumps

Without the proper equipment, materials, & expertise, water features can be challenging to maintain. A professional who specializes in maintaining ornamental water features will have the tools and expertise to deliver cost-effective, efficient service; no matter the size of your pond or waterfalls, or their needs. Quality cleaning and maintenance will reduce costly fixes down the line.

Quality structural fixes, lighting, and mechanics

We recommend draining your water feature once a year to clean the surfaces and look for any necessary repairs to the liner, filters, or pumps. Identifying structural damages early on will avoid costly repairs later on. This goes for damage to the water feature itself, or to the pumps and filters that keep it in balance. Ponds and waterfalls benefit from a fresh start every once in a while, and a professional crew can get this done quickly.

Is it time to schedule some TLC?

Ponds and waterfalls require upkeep and proactive monitoring. Professional maintenance ensures balance, and protects the longevity of your investment. Good pond and waterfall maintenance services include biological, mechanical, and/or chemical fixes tailored to each client. From algae control and water treatment, to winterization, professional water feature maintenance professionals bring the best in service and experience to your landscape. Show visitors you care, with quality professional pond and waterfall maintenance.
