Ponds need gentle, knowledgeable care. We start by assessing plants, fish and equipment, then clean by hand where possible to protect wildlife. Filters and pumps are serviced, sludge is reduced safely, and water balance is corrected so clarity returns and stays. We leave the area neat and provide simple after-care advice.
