Maintenance Terms & Conditions

1 - Spring Cleanout Terms

Our Pond Cleaning Procedure:  The cleanout crew will pump the water out of the pond, net out the fish and store them in a tub of water taken from the pond.  The boulders and the gravel will then be washed to remove excess algae, leaves, etc. Dead foliage, leaves, etc will be removed by hand. Aquatic plants will be pruned and fertilized. Displaced rocks and gravel will be replaced, covering any exposed liner, leaving your pond looking as good as new! All filter media will be washed and installed in their proper places, pumps will be hooked up and tested. IonGen probes will be replaced as necessary if requested on contract. Pond lights will be tested and/or replaced as necessary if requested on contract. Finally, your fish will be released back into your pond and a dose of Pond Starter Bacteria & Pond Detoxifier will be added to jump start your pond’s ecosystem. Your pond will be well on its way to bring you another season of enjoyment!
