Pond Cleaning Services in Norwich, Norfolk
If you've left your pond for a number of years without performing any maintenance, it's very likely that the pond's bottom is full of waste. Often ponds are surrounded by trees, which in conjunction with pond plants, fish excrement and excess fish food will create a waste often referred to as sludge or silt. The longer the decomposition is left to occur, the more waste that will form. If when you disturb the pond you notice a lot of debris floating about it's probably a good time to start thinking about cleaning it before things accumulate and become a bigger problem down the line.
All ponds are different and each one requires a different approach when it comes to cleaning & maintenance. You may have various problems ranging from an excess of duckweed & blanket weed to the colour of your water turning green or brown. Regardless of the issue we try to diagnose what's causing this to happen and rectify it so the issue doesn't return a week or two down the line. This could be as simple as changing an old UV bulb or giving the filter a clean so it has the chance to work again.
To deep clean your pond professional holding tanks are used for any fish and inhabitants you may have. All of the built up silt from the bottom is removed and the walls and floor of the pond are carefully cleaned. The waste is placed in the surrounding garden on flowerbeds and hedgerows where it provides great nutrition. |

Some of the water may need to be replaced but at least half of the established water is stored to avoid any sudden changes. Fresh tap water is filtered using a chlorine filter but this water can still take anywhere up to a couple of months to stabilize again. For smaller ponds this will happen a lot quicker and once stable you are able to enjoy the benefits for years with regular maintenance. Our pond cleaning services covers all of Norfolk & Suffolk so get in touch for more help.
