Commercial Pond Clearance and Pond Maintenance

Ponds and water features on commercial sites can quickly become overgrown, unsafe and difficult to manage without regular care.

We provide one-off clearance and ongoing maintenance for ponds on housing developments, business parks, schools, care homes and managed estates across the South East.

Our teams work safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption, keeping ponds tidy, presentable and compliant.

Pond Clearance

What our pond clearance service includes

Vegetation & overgrowth removal

We clear excessive weed growth, overhanging branches and overgrown margins that make ponds look neglected or unsafe. This helps keep access areas, pathways and banks tidy.

Silt, sludge & debris removal

Built-up silt, leaf litter and general debris can cause odours, block inlets and reduce water quality. We safely remove this material and dispose of waste appropriately.

Bank and edge maintenance

We tidy grass and vegetation around the pond edge to keep the area safe for residents, staff and visitors. Clear banks also help prevent slips, trips and overgrowth returning quickly.

Ongoing maintenance options

Once the pond is brought back under control, we can schedule regular visits to keep it tidy throughout the year. This is particularly useful for housing estates, care settings and busy commercial sites.

Pond before clearance

A typical pond clearance: what changes after a deep clean

Most commercial ponds we attend have become overgrown, silted or difficult to access. A deep clearance usually includes:

  • removing heavy weed growth and unwanted vegetation
  • cutting back overhanging branches and tidying edges
  • lifting silt and sludge to restore water depth and flow
  • clearing debris that blocks inlets, pipes or grates
  • improving visibility and safety around banks and pathways

The result is a cleaner, safer and more presentable water feature that residents, staff and visitors can use with confidence. We also offer follow-up maintenance to keep the pond controlled throughout the year.

Looking to improve biodiversity or meet BNG requirements?

Clear, well-maintained ponds don’t just improve the appearance of a site — they can also contribute to biodiversity value. Many commercial and residential developments now need to demonstrate measurable ecological improvements under Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) rules.

If your organisation is working towards BNG compliance, our sister company, Biodiversity & Habitat Solutions, supplies fully accredited BNG Units and creates habitats such as ponds, wetlands, species-rich grassland and woodland to support planning requirements.

Whether you need support improving the habitat on your existing site or require off-site BNG Units for a development project, we can connect you with the right expertise.
