The Pond Report experts have been installing ponds, installing and recommending products for ponds, storm-water basins, fishing ponds, lakes and wastewater treatment plants. We help engineering firms, pond managers, golf course managers, municipal general managers as well as small pond owners or lake and pond home owners associations. We provide a free website with a growing database of pond information as well we sell certain products that are key to maintaining ponds. We also provide the consultation services and offer site visits.

Our pond consultation services can be small or large meeting all client needs. If you are considering a pond aeration system and have some questions regarding recommendations from another company we can help you decipher and evaluate their proposals. If you need help with the design of a large deicing system we can help provide a list of required products so you can shop around. If you have a problematic pond or need some serious advice we can visit your site and help create a management plan for your pond.

Wouldn't it be great to have an expert standing at the edge of your pond giving you a step-by-step analysis of the pond and a detailed guide on how to care for the pond and fix any problems you have? ThePondReport.com can help. Our extensive knowledge, based on years of helping pond owners, can assist you with your pond or lake or development. A consultation with us is like having an expert at your side to decipher the mystery of why your pond is going wrong or to help guide you through a rehabilitation process or ensure that your new project will go as you want it to.

While we may not be able to physically visit your site we will be able to evaluate the pond with your help, your photos, your drawings and your phone conversations. If we can, we will arrange a visit, and extra charges may apply but in 99% of our projects we do not need to be on-site to offer full assistance.

While we respond to all our emails and phone calls to answer all your questions regarding aquatic management, products and design we also offer a paid service if you have a question or need assistance and don't want to wait for a response from our team. We usually can respond to general inquiries within 48 hours. For those of you who cannot wait or need to have a more thorough response to your question we offer this paid pond consultation service.

We have three levels of consultation if our unpaid response services don't meet your needs.

Bronze Level Consultation : $100
Ideal to have a simple question answered or compare and evaluate quotes or designs from other companies. If you save $500 by spending $100 to have a professional answer from The Pond Report consultants you are much further ahead!

Silver Level Consultation : $500
Ideal for helping design small and medium systems and creating pond managment plans for pond owners. We can compare and evaluate differing quotes and processes you have been considering. At this level you have access to private emails and phone support for an entire pond season. This level is popular with our campground and golf course managers as well as home owner and pond owner associations who maintain and care for lakes and ponds. This level is also for answering specific questions in a B2B capacity, our database of resources can often connect businesses to other businesses to meet your company needs for product sourcing or expertise.

Gold Level Consultation : $2000
(Includes site visit within the USA and Canada)
Ideal for large industrial projects or for assiting in municipal evaluations, product recommendations and maintenance techniques. We will provide plans and layout design parameters for projects or do quotes and plans for large projects. When possible and if required we will provide an on-site visit, additional charge may be required when doing on-site visits depending on season and time required at site. This level is popular with engineering firms, aquatic specialists, town managers, waste water plant managers and golf course managers who require on site evaluations or product recomendations.


While the investment may not be for everyone, it can be worthwhile for larger projects, pond managers, golf courses or Home Owner Associations who want to have an experienced guide help them with understanding the procedures of maintaining a healthy pond and aquatic ecosystem.

In the Silver and Gold Consultation packages we provide dedicated phone and email support for your pond or pond project. You get priority access to our support team whenever you need it. If you manage a lake, a property with other owners or a campground having us assist you with your seasonal pond issue can be invaluable. Instead of relying on a local pond management company you can have a committed support system available. Have a question? Call us! Need advice because of a sudden change in your pond? Call us!

We help clients around the world. With the use of emails, digital imaging, faxes and telephones there is no location we cannot help. By looking at your photos and drawings, by speaking with you directly we can provide expertise when you need it. There is no job too big or too small. From the design of large industrial aeration systems to the design of large marina de-icing projects to the smallest question regarding where to find the best supplier of a certain product from bacteria to tubing. Our staff have worked with hundreds of different products and have reviewed many pond products and systems. We travel around North America visiting town, cities, parks and private pond owners helping with their ponds and lakes.

What is Included in Your Pond Report Consultation

There really is no limit; we can do what you need, as much or as little. We have three tiers of pond consultation, Bronze Silver and Gold. The Bronze is $100 for simple questions you need answered when you are judging the best of two options, have a need to talk to someone and not just read an email response. The Silver Package is popular with pond owner associations, for $500 you get all your questions answered, phone support, design assistance and we're there for you for a year. The Gold Package includes a site visit in North America as well as large project design, serious advice and evaluation and in-depth help.

The first step if you are interested in having us help is to contact us. We will follow-up within 48 hours requesting basic information, drawings, and digital photos to be sent by email, fax or postal service. After studying the information you submit to us we will send you a recommendation of treatment and procedure and any products that would be required and the recommended application rate, positioning and operational maintenance that will be required. You will have a direct and private phone line to us so you can call when you have questions or concerns as the process unfolds. We can submit quotes and parts lists or product recommendations and will help you evaluate any third-party price quotes you receive in comparison to our suggestions. We will be onboard with you or your group to evaluate if there are additional ways to save money on your treatment, aeration project or pond restoration project. We will provide a final recommendation based on your product requirements as to where to purchase these products whether it be an aeration system, a fountain, natural bacteria, a water pump, windmill etc.

The Pond Report Consultation Fee is like an insurance that you have an arms-length consultant working with you to ensure that will not be taken advantage of by a pond supply store or a consultant who makes a living by selling their products. We have used many products and have installed many different systems over the years and can evaluate anything that someone has suggested. Once we are secured as your consultant we are engaged to help you and put your best interests first. That's why you pay us.

The Pond Report Consultation Fee as an assurance that at the end of your project you know you have avoided the pitfalls and costly traps that misinformation can bring.
We are sure we will help you potentially save thousands of dollars. Instead of asking a salesperson or product manufacturer for advice, when they will surely recommend their own products, we will help separate the wheat from the chaff!

Extremely Important Notice:

All consultations are without warranty or guarantee of performance and are based solely on our experience and expertise and do not imply performance, success or accuracy. While we strive to use our abilities, contacts and knowledge to work for you we cannot provide engineering stamps of approval, insurance promises or any 100% claim that our information is true or accurate or our systems or recommendations will work as we state they will because of the inherent instability of natural aquatic systems and biological processes. Please ensure to read our website, which is full of freely available information or ask us a question via our needs form, before paying for our consultation services. On site visits are available when schedules allow.
