A recently finished job, just waiting for a new lawn. This pond took a severe battering in Storm Ciaron and was literally smashed when a roof landed on it ! We were contracted to rebuild and reline the pond. All new fishies, plants and so on with a great little filtration and spillway system. Now looking very modern in a sunny garden.

A busy start to the year. Just recently finished, we created this little pond for nature and of course visiting Ducks which is already given the owners immense pleasure watching the ducks exploring their new pond. of note is the inlaid gravel liner which is great for blending in with mosses and algae eventually helping such plants establish.

WOW ! Another great job completed on time and on budget. We were so pleased to have been chosen by The Atlantic Hotel to provide a complete rebuild of their very popular inside/outside fish pond. After Storm Ciaron had caused damage the time was right to upgrade whilst the hotel was closed for refurbishment and so working closely with IPM Independent Project Management we delivered a new pond to welcome guests to this prestigious hotel. With great care for the structure above our dedicated JCB operator removed some huge rocks and rubble from the pond so the restoration work could begin.
Featuring an all new filtration system with a complete electrical rebuild and adding fountain pumps and a total resin relining of the pond, we are certain this will bring pleasure to the many people who frequent this establishment. Of note was the finding of a HUGE 5star female Toad who was living there and one of the biggest we have ever found.

Phase 1 completed. Our client wanted his pond and surrounding woodland illuminated, so that when walking the grounds at night they could enjoy the area. Fitted up with time clocks so that nature isn't disturbed past 9pm the pond fountain which reaches heights of 20ft is illuminated in a warm white. Specific trees are uplit as is the pond edge. All lights are fully IP68 rated and completely submersible as well. Next job.....illuminate the waterfall........

We were recently contracted to repair and renew and lovely feature pond with a perspex bubbling ball within a stainless steel bowl perched atop an old Granite Cider crusher. The ball had been blown off its perch in Storm Ciaron. Our client had requested a full rebuild with new electrics, filtration and pumps. Included was sympathetic LED pond lighting to give an aura to the feature at night when viewed from the house, or simply taking an evening stroll in the garden.

Our client had a job specific request. Can you fix my storm damaged pond and bring all my water lilies back to life? So we did. The pond received a complete new cement skim and we applied three coats of resin. New electrics and a new filtration system were Installed .All Lilies were root pruned and given special slow release feed and this is the result !

Just completed. Our client asked if we could create a lovely little haven for Toads and wildlife in a dark corner of the garden. So we made this. Lots of hides for Toads built in a secure manner under the Granite and so on. Next year, lots of Dragonflies and Insects will hatch and visit the pond and small birds are already attracted to the waterfall. We supply pre-formed pond and pre formed water courses to order. Just ask.

We were recently asked to refurbish this neglected pond and to Install new pumps and appropriate electrical works. We applied a lovely Blue pond paint to lift up the fountain. Result = happy customers!

Having treated our customers pond with lake therapy treatments, the algae has disappeared and the ponds are looking good. Water clarity is amazing ! It's an ongoing effort with Nitrates washing in from fields, but we are doing great things with these ponds. We added beautiful floating fountains to enhance the 'depth of field' when walking down to the ponds and it looks lovely. The morning walk around the grounds with the dew at your feet is something special. Equally, an afternoon beer by the pond is just as special watching your Ducks do what they do !
Just occasionally, we come across Mother Duck sitting on her Eggs. Lovely ! And THAT makes all our efforts for nature worthwhile!

We were recently asked if we could turn a disused family swimming pool into a Koi pond ! The pond had devoloped some nasty cracks and needed a good bit of attention, including a full reseal in a nice Antracite epoxy resin colour.
It was a great job and we were really pleased to undertake the work. So with all new filtration, a powerful pump and a range of other gubbins, we now have some happy baby Koi in a new home with part of the pond planted out to encourage Dragonflies, Demoiselles, Bees and all manner of wildlife! It's already looking lovely!

These two ponds which we brought back to life in our Island home were completed with meticulous care using Oase Professional water treatments and are now reaping the rewards! After rebuilding and de-silting the ponds last year, the next task was to get the lakes looking stunning. New plants both marginal and deep water were planted in small and large groups and the results are quite simply stunning!
Our client is very happy!
Through analysis and survey, to ongoing monitoring, we strive to create beautiful ponds and lakes. It's not easy and it's hard work, but with perseverance, we've created an amazing wildlife habitat.
To finish it all off, we installed a beautiful fountain to add a bit of sparkle!

Our completed pond at Les Varines which we constructed last year and now showing its year 1 growth. Fitted up with a powerful filtration system with skimmers and UVC and populated by large Koi, it provides a lovely area to sit and relax watching the myriad of Dragonflies flitting about. It contains 134,000 litres.
Notice the deliberate unkempt grass verge of approximately 18inches. This will allow small creatures to hide and be safe and provides definite benefits for all those little bugs we often miss.We'll keep you updated on its progress as the season goes by.
Need advice? We're here to make your pond dreams come true !

We received a call to 'bring to life' a tired and lonely pond. A full clean up later and a big replanting and this little haven for wildlife is reborn. We also renewed the electrics to the proper standards to ensure everything was safe.

Completed. We recently Installed two new ponds with new filtration and IP66 electrics to ensure complete staff safety when working in the area. All completed for the JSPCA at St.Saviours road. A larger pond for aquatic birds that require some depth to dive and play in with a beach landing as well so that any birds with Injuries can access and egress safely. And a very shallow concrete medical pond for Ducklings and any very small birds that need a bit of water play time. The shallow pond has a special grit to allow for safe non slip underfoot.

22/05/2024

And he it is, working just lovely ! We can create a total flow control, so it can be a 'raging rapids' or ' low 'n' slow'. Our eco flow controls work wonders and are so simple to use.

After some storm damage work, we fitted up a new pump and pipework and got our clients waterfall working just perfectly.
