Koi Pond & Fountain Services
Why specifically Koi Pond & Fountain Maintenance? Although Lake Management Inc is primarily a commercial aquatic maintenance company, we receive hundreds of residential koi pond service calls per year. We realized, specifically relating to residential koi ponds, water gardens, and other natural water features being such a niche market, there are very few companies who are comfortable servicing these water features and many customers throughout California, Arizona, etc are in dire need of a professional aquatic company who can meet their needs.
So what does a commercial aquatic company with over 40 years of commercial aquatic service do in this situation? We start a residential koi pond maintenance service of course, catering specifically to the residential homeowners who have koi ponds and waterfalls.
What we also realized when entering the residential koi pond market is, most of the smaller koi pond companies seem to have some unhealthy habits and many koi pond purchasers are not happy with the end-result on their pond construction project, or weekly koi pond maintenance. Many pond companies are not able to match the demand of the need of most pond owners due to many factors, including the lack of knowledgeable pond and lake technicians who understand the dynamics of these natural water features.

Pond Cleanings vs Pond Maintenance
A pond cleaning is when a pond or water feature is drained and thoroughly cleaned. These are custom-tailored to each water feature and include many obstacles to overcome in order to be successful. For example, if a client has fish, a large tank must be setup to accommodate these fish (refer to image). Cement vs rubber pond liners are also a factor that must be included with koi pond cleanings, rubber liners over 10 years old are a liability for leaks and must be dealt with accordingly.
Pond maintenance, is similar to pool maintenance. Typically on a bi-weekly schedule, pond maintenance is a method of keeping your pond filter clean, water-surface clear, ultra-violet light functioning, and many more items each pond requires. In order to have clear water and a healthy eco-system for your koi fish and turtles, you must use a professional pond service company who is well aware of what each system entails and how they should be managed.

What is Koi Pond Maintenance?

What is a Deep Koi Pond Cleaning?
A deep koi pond cleaning, is similar to the name – a thorough cleaning of the pond or water feature. Typically a drain and clean + cleaning of filtration media, UV-light swap, and much more including heavy landscaping if needed. Most clients need at least 1-2 deep cleanings per year based on numerous factors, i.e. how the pond was constructed, is there large enough filtration to handle the maintenance during the year? Is your pond over-stocked and not equipped to handle the fish and turtles? These are factors that will determine how often you need a deep pond cleaning.
To make a long story short, Wes is the only contractor I could talk to that would respect my asinine wishes and made me feel comfortable with what I wanted done. Others would steer me “their” ways while Wes basically says ok, I’ll make what you want. As we get going, this guy deals with my constant oddball hour texting of changes and design requirements. I also force him to make me a patio (yes he and his crew can do those too). I never had to be involved in Wes’ work, the craftsmanship and eye for attention to detail is there. I never needed to have him change or “redo” any work.
Koi Pond ConstructionWes is the best! My house came with a koi pond and I’m learning more about it as I go…. last night I came home and it was almost out of water. I called after hours and Wes called me back and walked me thru the process of stabilizing the pond AND fish. He offered to come that night and set up a temporary tank or transfer my fish to his pond. I suggested coming in the morning. He showed up early ready for any situation.
Koi Pond EmergencyI had just moved into a house with a neglected, pool-size koi pond and no instructions. The water was murky green and the equipment required DAILY cleaning from disgusting swamp filth. Then, I discovered the pond was leaking- rapidly. What does one do on a Sunday night? I don’t have a container big enough to hold one of the large koi, much less 12 of them! I tried calling several pond businesses to no avail- until I connected with Wes. He was at my house in about 2 hours, set up a temporary tank and waded in the gunk to scoop out my dozen large koi with a net… in the dark! That sort of dedication speaks volumes.
