Embrace Tranquility With Regular Pond Cleaning
And Maintenance
Is your Frederick pond causing you more stress than relaxation? You may notice that the water is cloudy or the plants are overgrown. You may even begin to detect a strange odor from your pond. If you’re experiencing any of these issues, it’s time to start thinking about a drain and clean.
This process will restore your pond to its former beauty and give you a deeper understanding of how your pond works. Say goodbye to constantly adding water or dealing with malfunctioning pumps. Your pond can become your peaceful oasis again with a proper maintenance plan.
You'll start with an exploratory drain and clean if:
- You just bought your house and inherited a water feature
- Your old pond company went out of business
- Your pond needs a repair
- Your water feature leaks
- Your pump isn't working anymore
- Your pond hasn't been cleaned in awhile
Frederick Pond Cleaning And Maintenance For Thriving Ecosystems
A murky, unkempt pond can hinder your enjoyment of the serene outdoor space you’ve created. It’s also disheartening to know your fish live in such conditions. By investing in regular pond cleaning and maintenance for your Frederick pond, you can enjoy a pristine and healthy environment for your aquatic friends.
Receiving comprehensive pond cleaning and maintenance services will put your mind at ease as we thoroughly inspect your pond’s liner, edges, pump, filtration system, and electrical devices. We’ll recommend the best course of action, such as pond skimmers, cleaners, or other equipment, to keep your pond in optimal working condition if any repairs are needed.

Some of the most common pond maintenance solutions include:
- Diagnosing the quality of the water
- Full cleaning for clear water
- Trimming of plants
- Protecting the pond from debris
- Minor adjusting of rocks to increase safety
- Checking the health of the fish
How An Exploratory Drain And Clean Works
No efforts will be spared in giving your pond the proper care. We’ll make sure to keep you in the loop throughout the entire process of cleaning your pond, and equip you with tips and tricks to keep it healthy for longer.
Almost all of our pond maintenance clients start with an exploratory drain and clean first.

Drain Your Pond
We start with draining your pond so that we can get a full picture of what’s going on with your feature. We carefully remove any fish and place them in a temporary tank for the duration of the cleaning.

Clean Your Pond
After we drain your pond, we clean every part of the feature. This helps to give a cleaner foundation for our inspection.

Inspect Your Pond
With your pond being a clean slate, we dive in with a thorough inspection. We check for holes, leaks, and malfunctioning parts. We take notes and create a detailed report along the way.

Refill Your Pond
Once your pond has been fully inspected, we refill your water feature and replace the fish.

Educate You About Your Pond
Now that your pond has been completely reset to a healthy state, we go over our findings with you. This is your time to learn about the state of your pond and how to set it up for success going forward.

I searched the internet and came across Premier Ponds. They showed up to access my situation and made suggestions on how to improve the overall look of the backyard with the pond-less waterfall. They took the old one out and within a few days I was looking at my new beautiful waterfall that even lights up at night. They even took the time to plant the flowers that I bought around the waterfall and put down the mulch for me as well.
Throughout the years, whenever I have an issue (even on the weekend) I would call and I usually had someone here the next day or maybe even the same day to solve the problem. This year I had Premier Ponds put in some retaining walls and they did an outstanding job of tying in the walls with the waterfall. It looks looks like its been there the whole time.
I truly would recommend Premier Ponds. They are a great bunch of people to work with and they left me with a beautiful waterfall that I have enjoyed for many years.
