Bi-weekly & Annual Cleaning & Maintenance Options
Aqua sources often provide a nice addition to gardens. A fountain enhances aesthetic appeal with calming views and the sound of falling water that soothes your soul. Nevertheless, aqua sources are important to be maintained for their protection and to keep the pond clean. It helps encourage an environmentally healthy ecosystem and keeps the pond free from bad scents. How can I maintain my fountain ponds?
Backyard Fountains & Ponds
Water features are the pinnacle of almost any community – whether its’ a natural pond, backyard pond, Commercial business complex, or commercial strip mall. However, they can turn into complete aquatic biohazards without regular maintenance and removal of debris. We understand the dynamics of community parks, associations, and other water features. We are water feature builders who can provide repairs and service to your outdoor fountain, beautiful yard fountain, natural garden pond, filter, and aqua buildup.
Outdoor Ponds & Fountains
We work with municipal community parks and cities that need assistance with retention basins. Additionally, we have numerous maintenance routes set up throughout the state for outdoor water fountains and more.
Industry’s Best Floating Pond Fountains | Maintenance, Installation, And Repair
Lake Maintenance Inc. (LMI) managers are experts in the installation, construction, and maintenance of aqua aeration systems. Floating ponds and fountains are considered beautiful additions to the landscape, but some don’t realize that aerators provide a number of additional benefits for water purification. Not only do fountains provide an aesthetic appearance to a property, but they also help with algae control as well as weed management by decreasing organic waste muck and lowering the nutrient load.
We Maintain All Types Of Ponds, Fountains & Waterfalls
COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL FOUNTAIN MAINTENANCE
Depending on your pond and fountain maintenance goals, the unique makeup of every Lake management program will determine the total plan. Because of this, creating a proper maintenance program to effectively manage larger aqua systems requires an extremely high level of experience in applied garden pond management. We know better than anyone that not every property owner or apartment complex manager is equipped to do this.
WATER QUALITY MONITORING & TESTING
Whether your golf course ponds or water fountains are enjoyed for fishing, swimming, as a deterrent for noise, or just because they provide scenic views, it’s imperative to maintain the aqua feature so that it is kept clean and free of harmful bacteria due to stagnant water. The LMI team offers regular on-site testing and monitoring services for water quality, fish health, as well as offers landscape services.
The team at Lake Management Inc, offers on-site testing services for water quality, fish health, as well as offers landscape services. Regular testing and monitoring of the water quality provides us with the date required to keep aquatic ecosystems healthy.
NOT ALL POND-LESS WATERFALLS & FOUNTAINS ARE THE SAME
Depending on the use and goals of different bodies of water, there might be different management strategies needed. A recreational pond or fountain being managed for fishing will need a different program than a stormwater pond would require. Similarly, a pond managed for a homeowner association should expect to have different needs and issues than a golf course lake will have.
NOXIOUS WEED AND POND ALGAE TREATMENT
Lake Management Inc. has a fleet of aquatic pond technicians that operate with equipment capable of testing the different aqua sources for algae issues and removal of natural and other debris. This fleet of equipment including a small net and pump enables us to check the water level quickly. We can easily navigate all sorts of aquatic systems to keep your aqua sources clean and prevent your golf course water trap and pond from being a breeding ground for unwanted plant species. Our solutions for algae treatment and lake weed control eliminate undesirable exotic weeds and algae growth that otherwise would jeopardize your aquatic ecosystem’s balance.

POND & FOUNTAIN MANAGEMENT – PERFECTED
Monitoring, testing, and restoration of pond and fountain water level and quality are the foundation of any long-term integrated pond and fountain maintenance program. It is essential to know the biological and chemical demands placed on your aqua source and use this information to pump water and encourage fish growth in order to bring balance to your system.
The majority of issues that pond and lake owners and managers face can be traced to some kind of imbalance in aqua quality and the inability to keep the water clean in their pond or golf course waterfall. Excessive nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus can play a major role in creating the following nuisances:
- Pond & fountain algae blooms
- Poor fountain or pond water quality
- Foul odors in pond or fountain water
- Poor health of aquatic life (if natural)
Alkalinity, pH, dissolved oxygen, and other parameters play an equally important role in an aquatic system’s health. The biological and chemical oxygen demand on your pond or lake at a specific time will tell us quite a bit about its current conditions and the likelihood of issues developing in the future.

This Our programs are tailored to meet the specific goals and demands of your fountain or pond.

Pond & fountain maintenance FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Pond management is when a company oversees the associated water features on your commercial or residential property. Managing both large and small bodies of water can present difficulties to some – which is why we are around. We encourage you to reach out today if you have any questions or concerns with your water features.
The best thing you can do when your pond, stream, or fountain is losing water is to turn the water feature off and let it sit for 24 hours to determine where the leak might be. For example, if your fountain only loses surface water when it has to pump water, the leak could be located in the plumbing, pump/other equipment, or due to water splash (if you have a waterfall or similar).
If you turn the pump off and you’re still losing some, the leak is most likely in the basin (regardless of whether it’s a pondless waterfall or not). In this case, your next step will be to drain the water and determine whether the leak is worth patching up, or whether you need to replace the pond liner.
Yes, although we prefer that you pick up aquatic plant life first from the plant supplier. We’ll then use pumps to rinse water, remove debris, and install the plants in a way that adds beauty to your lake or pond. Contact our company team. We’ll keep your ponds in good condition in any location, so you can relax and enjoy the landscape for at least five years with maintenance scheduled every week.
Typically we suggest having your pond or fountain constructed with powerful filters and pumps – to make managing and maintaining the algae in your water feature is easy on yourself.
Although we understand this isn’t always the case, sometimes there’s no room for big pumps and filtration, therefor you need a pond and fountain maintenance company (similar to that of a pool company) to help you clean your water fountains, garden ponds, and more.
