There are few elements that add more to your yard than a pond will (except maybe trees). Ponds not only give you something absolutely gorgeous to look at if they are done correctly, but they also give you a different element in your yard that brings in wildlife, gives ambient noise, and is easy to take care of.
Ponds are difficult to work with if you don’t have the knowledge, however, and should be installed by a professional. There are far too many ways that installing one can go wrong and you are just left with a mess – one leak and you can get sinkholes, damage, and even rotting to your yard, trees, or home.

Keep Your Pond Running Clean
Your pond is going to require some work from you as well – or at least someone else that you hire. You see, the water that flows through the pond is directly impacted by everything around it. If you get too many leaves in your pond, it can start to turn green, which is a hard problem to reverse. If a branch falls on your pond, the cost to fix it might be up there with getting a new one.
At Econo Tree Service, we have worked with tons of yards that have ponds, keeping the leaves clear of the water and the branches from interfering with the design. It is a delicate balance, but it can be done with a practiced hand.
We can also help you if you need to have space cleared so that you can get the pond of your dreams. Give us a call today at (650) 200-2495 and we can start the process with a free estimate.
