The Cleaning Process
When cleaning a pond, we always follow a specific process to ensure that a thorough job is done, and we leave you with a clean water feature to enjoy!
Before we begin, we always make sure of the following: The water feature is running properly​, there is a nearby water and electric source, and the quality of the water (if the water is clear and the pond has fish, we will preserve some of the water to limit the amount of stress to the fish​)
Next, we will drain the pond entirely and move any fish, frogs, etc. to a temporary water container
We will then pick up all loose debris (leaves, sticks, mulch, etc.) and begin to rinse all the muck
Then will pressure wash all of the stonework, ensuring there is no algae remaining
After pressure washing, we will do a final, thorough rinse of all the gravel and stonework. We will also clean all potted plants at this time
Finally, we will clean all filter media from the biofalls and skimmer, as well as the pump
Now we can begin to fill the pond with fresh water (and some of the old water if clean enough) and return all the wildlife to the pond
​
When to Schedule my Cleaning?
The best time to get your pond cleaned is in the fall/spring when the fish are less active. Water features with no wildlife can be cleaned at any time between March and November
