Embrace Nature’s Wonders With A Pond Built By Certified Aquascape Contractors
At Site Pros Landscaping, we understand that a pond is more than just water and rocks. It’s a living work of art, a balanced ecosystem where plants, fish, and beneficial bacteria work together to create a naturally beautiful and low-maintenance environment.
We hand-pick each boulder, carefully place rocks for a natural look, and design filtration systems that keep your pond sparkling clear. Bring more of nature’s beauty into your backyard with a low-maintenance, custom-designed pond.

Unwind Without Leaving Your Home With A Pond As Beautiful As These
Answering Your Common Pond Building Questions
The cost of your pond project will vary depending on size, features, and materials. Our custom pond designs typically start at approximately $8,000 for smaller ponds (up to 90 sq. ft.) and increase based on complexity and additional features like waterfalls, lighting, and filtration systems.
We recommend a minimum depth of 1.5 feet for your pond, with an average depth of 2 feet for optimal fish health and ecosystem balance.
To maintain a healthy pond ecosystem, we recommend circulating the entire volume of water at least 2-3 times per hour. For example, a 500-gallon pond would need a 1,500 GPH (gallons per hour) pump.
Our pond-building timeline depends on the size and complexity of the project. Small ponds (up to 90 sq. ft.) can often be completed in as little as 3 days, while larger projects usually take no more than 2 weeks.
The ideal pond size depends on your preferences, available space, and budget. We’ll work with you to determine the perfect dimensions for your property and vision. Our most common pond size is 11×16 feet.
The bottom of your pond will have layers of protective fabric, a durable 45 mil EPDM liner, and a layer of gravel to create a stable and healthy environment for your aquatic life.

Zach and Alissa were wonderful throughout the entire pond building process.
They took our vision and created an amazing space for us to enjoy in our backyard. They far exceeded our expectations so much we are already planning our next project with them!
They are truly talented professionals and we highly recommend them if you are considering any pond, water feature or landscaping project!!

It might sound cheesy but getting a pond will change how you enjoy your life. Site Pros exceeded our expectations when building our pond in every way.
Our only regret is we didn’t go BIGGER. We will eventually expand it and will absolutely call them again. It was installed in February and has preformed just as we were explained.
The water is always clean and I do very little upkeep other than cleaning the filter basket a couple times a week. You will fall in love with your yard all over again adding a pond.
Thank you Site Pros

Zach and Alyssa are true artists in the pond Aquascape space.
I had no idea how far ponds had changed since the days of the hard plastic mold.
They transformed my backyard in 7 days from nothing, to a creek in the Rocky Mountains.
They worked endlessly to make sure it was perfect and I can’t thank them enough.
