Frequently Asked Questions
The cost of a pond varies depending on factors including the size (surface area and depth), soil type, location, shape, and features. Fill out the Request a Quote form, schedule a call, or call us anytime during business hours to discuss your unique wants and needs for a pond.
This depends on the substructure of the soil and the age of the pond. Many ponds can be re-excavated if the proper clay exists. Some need to be lined, re-lined, or have the liner shifted. If there’s a small hole, it might be possible to seal. There are also liner repair options that might work for certain larger holes or rips. We’ll find the best and most economical solution for the underlying cause of your pond’s leakage. Fill out the Request a Quote form, schedule a call, or call anytime during business hours to get our help to diagnose and fix the issue.
