Maintenance
No
matter how well built, your pond will need to be inspected periodically
to be sure no problems are developing. Severe storms with heavy
rains can cause problems with the bottom and the sides of the
pond. Inspect the pond regularly for
leaks. Repairs will be less expensive if found early.
We
also inspect pipes and filters for debris that may have accumulated
throughout time and ensure that you have sufficient filtration
in place to ensure a clean and clear pond for you to enjoy.
Finally we check the surrounds for burrowing by small animals.
Aquatic
planting, ph testing and replacement of protective netting
should also be considered at this time
Spring Clean your Pond
Does your pond look a little sad after
the winter? Let us clean your pond. We can also clean
and check the productivity of your pumps and filters. No one
likes a murky pond covered in algae. We will remove surface
algae and dead leaves which can also build up on the base of
your pond and which will over time contaminate your pond with
rotting matter and ultimately reduce the volume of your pond.
We can thin out over populated areas of aquatic vegetation and
provide a wide selection of aquatic plants which can add beautiful
colour and species variety and oxygenation.

generally be done without the need to remove your fish however
this will vary from pond to pond.
