Exploratory Drain and Clean
Inspect and diagnose the health and functionality of your pond
Master Aquascape Certified Contractor since 2006
What Is An Exploratory Drain And Clean And Why Do You Need It?
An Exploratory Drain And Clean is the best way to diagnose your water feature for any issues. Since ponds are natural ecosystems, they usually require a certain amount of maintenance. This is where we can help.
We first inspect the system’s set up and make recommendations to improve the filtration system ‒ clean water is essential to maintain the pond’s ecosystem. Without it, everything else falls apart. Plants and animals die, algae runs rampant, and your pond turns into a wasteland. A water filtration system can prevent this from becoming an issue.
Next, we proceed to remove the water and clean the pond. If you have fish, we safely place them in a holding tank while working on your pond. We empty skimmers, remove debris, and treat the water. This process helps us see if there’s any severe damage that needs repair. When we’re done, your pond will look brand new.
What Else Should You Know?
We’ve seen it many times: people inherit an old pond and the water turned green, or the flow is terrible. If you just moved into a new house, you’re probably wondering how you should take care of it. Even though most water features are built to last, maintenance is usually still required.
Besides an Exploratory Drain And Clean, we’re happy and able to help and advise you on all sorts of pond-related issues, so that you can enjoy the beauty of your new pond for a long time.
Some of the most common pond issues we can offer you professional assistance with include:
- How to care for your pond during each season
- How to care for your fish in the winter
- How to keep your water algae-free
- How your pond's systems work
- What types of aquatic plants you should choose

We hired Just Add Water to create a waterfall feature in our backyard. What we didn’t expect was the overwhelming beauty that happened when they were finished! Chris came to our house on a Sunday, no less, to plan our design, and his crew worked on a Saturday after a long week to do our project.
Amazing, stunning, and much more than we ever dreamed! Professional, and over-the-top design, you won’t be disappointed!!
