What We Look At When Building Your Quote
We price based on the actual condition of your pond. Here are the factors we consider when putting together your quote:
Pond Size and Volume Larger ponds require more equipment and time. We need to pump all the water to properly clean the rocks, pebbles and liner.
Time Since Last Cleaning Ponds that haven't been cleaned in over a year will have more sludge buildup and may require additional work.
Fish Population More fish means more waste. We also safely catch and house your fish in a temporary tank during cleaning.
Plant Overgrowth Invasive or overgrown aquatic plants like cattails and unpotted lilies require extra care to remove properly.
Repairs Needed If we spot something that needs fixing, we'll let you know and discuss options before doing any repair work.
Location and Access Job sites more than 25 miles from our Edmond store or with limited equipment access may affect pricing.
No matter what factors apply to your pond, you'll always receive a clear quote before any work begins. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Spring and Summer Maintenance:
Your most important cleaning of the year. As temperatures rise, your pond's ecosystem kicks back into gear and needs a fresh start. A spring cleanout removes the sludge, debris, and bacteria that built up over winter and resets your pond for a healthy growing season.
Our spring schedule fills up fast, so book early. Most customers schedule between February and late May.
Fall and Winter Pond Care: October Through February
Falling leaves and debris create a breeding ground for harmful bacteria like Aeromonas and Pseudomonas, which thrive in cold water right when your koi's immune system is at its weakest. A fall cleanout and protective netting keeps your fish safe and saves you money come spring.
Our fall and winter services include:
- Cut back and remove aquatic plants, lilies, and floating plants
- Clean pumps and inspect filtration systems
- Apply cold-water beneficial bacteria
- Install protective pond netting
- Assess fish health and treat as needed
- Maintain water levels and adjust equipment as needed
Winter service calls can be scheduled ahead of time or as needed throughout the season.
