There are plenty of reasons to own your own pond, from water conservation to attracting birds and wildlife. Ponds have many functional uses, whether it is providing irrigation or helping water livestock. They could also double as swimming or fishing holes during the summer months. Some desire ponds to help drown out city traffic noise or show off their landscaping. It takes a professional eye to choose the right location based not only on aesthetics but also on the ground type, water table, grading, and land slope.

When excavating for pond placement, factors like ground stabilization, filtration systems, pumps, and drainage must also be dealt with. There is also the matter of local building codes and HOA requirements. A professional company has the technical experience and know-how to complete the project from start to finish, safely and efficiently. Building a pond is a tremendous undertaking and should not be attempted as a DIY project.
