What Affects The Cost Of Pond Cleaning?
The are many variables that decide the cost to build your pond
The Size Of Your Pond & How Much Water It Contains
The amount of water in your pond will dictate the equipment we're going to need to clean the pond properly. Ponds can vary from just a few hundred gallons of water to several thousand gallons of water. To clean the pond properly including the substrate and liner we're going to have to pump all of that water out using either a vacuum trailer or a vacuum truck.
How Long Has It Been Since Your Pond Was Last Cleaned?
Ponds that have been neglected, not maintained properly, or that haven't been cleaned in years are always going to be more work. Organic debris like leaves, branches, and decaying plant matter all need to be removed. If the pond hasn't been cleaned in years there will also be a significant layer of sludge on the bottom of your pond that we'll need to suck out with a liquid vacuum truck or trailer.
Do You Have Fish In Your Pond?
If you have fish in the pond it can complicate the cleaning process only because we'll need to catch the fish and put them in a temporary tank. We have to be extremely careful with how we clean the pond and must avoid any chemicals that could be harmful to your fish.
What Type Of Filtration System Do You Have?
Different filtration systems require different maintenance procedures and different cleaning frequencies to keep everything healthy. During any cleaning filters should be thoroughly inspected and the actual filter elements should be replaced.
Is Your Pond Full Of Weeds Or Invasive Plants?
When a pond has been left alone for many years it will be full of invasive plants and weeds. We'll need to remove them. Some ponds we clean look more like a jungle than a pond and if that's the case with your pond you can expect it will cost a little more just because of the additional labor. No matter how overgrown the pond is we'll be able to bring it back to it's original state.
Choosing The Right Pond Cleaning Company
When you're ready to take the plunge and add a pond to your property, it's important to choose the right contractor for the job. Look for a company with experience in pond construction and one that can offer you a variety of services such as landscape design, and pond maintenance to keep your pond healthy and looking great.
