A naturally balanced pond is low-maintenance, but not no-maintenance. To keep your pond at its best, there are certain things you’ll need to do at different times of the year to maintain water quality, fish health, and beauty. Our maintenance programs are designed to take care of all the essentials – and then some. Choose the package that best suits your needs, whether you want to do some of the tasks yourself, or you want full white glove service.

”We would like to thank you very much for the spectacular job you and your team did in creating our back yard paradise. It is everything you described it would be and more. We love how you created different areas in the yard. Each have their own charm; from the raised pergola-covered patio to the nature trail along the lilac trees, the cozy swing on the blue stone patio to the soothing sound of the water feature. We’ve entertained many people since the project was finished. Everyone is amazed when they enter the yard; it definitely has that ‘WOW’ factor. One look around and everyone says, “It’s like being in another world”.
