We offer three annual maintenance packages offering different options based on how much you want to be involved in the maintenance of your water feature. For those who wish to do more, there is also the option for us to perform only spring opening and winterization visits.
The prices of each package are based on the square footage of the pond, the length of the stream, and the location. Pricing is available on request.
