Throughout the years many pond owners we have worked with have expresed frustration at finding real experts in the field of pond repair and revitalization.Most consultants are emplyed by companies who sell products and in many cases one pond owner can consult three pond experts and come up with three different strategies for dealing with common pond problems.

More about pond algae control

We help you choose what you need.

Does your pond need aeration? Maybe it does maybe it doesn't but if you ask someone who sells aeration systems they will certainly tell you to buy one of theirs. When you use our Consultation Services we will first help diagnose the source of your problem and then provide you with a list of strategies for reversing the problem. We will provide you with concrete steps to take and the recommended type of system or products that may be needed.

Get ThePondReport.com Working For You For only $500 you get your own private pond consultant available for all your questions and to help with your problems for your pond, lake, water-garden or industrial or municipal water treatment facility!

With your "Pond Report" in hand you can then be responsible for the purchase of the required materials and proceed with restoring the pond, lake or water garden. But before you buy anything we can help determine if you are getting the best value for your money by also analyzing any price quotes you recieve from pond supply stores and helping you find ways to save money.

The choice of compressors, beneficial bacteria to fight algae, the placement of diffusers, or the restoring clarity to water and preventing fish kills can be daunting tasks especially when many pond supply stores are trying to sell products and often at higher prices that necessary. Pond products of all sorts can be bought on eBay or over the Internet but often, while prices are low, the quality might be questionable or there may be no after-sale service offered.

We have dealt with hundreds of suppliers from retailers to wholesalers over the past six years so we know what something should cost and can suggest the best place to buy it.

Take pond bacteria for example. There are dozens of retailers who sell different blends and brand name bacteria products for ponds and water gardens so why is there a range of hundreds of dollars in price for what appears to be virtually the same product? We've gathered the information on what works and what doesn't and it isn't always the highest price pond bacteria that works best. We can tell you what cheap bacteria works and what cheap pond bacteria to avoid.

Another example we've seen time and again is aeration systems. Do you need three diffusers? Will a linear pump work or should you use a rotary vane compressor or a piston driven pump? If you can get through to a real person at an aeration products company you may be told that you need one type of pump or compressor that may be not quite right, or overkill, or jst a waste of money. There are many variables that can add repair costs and maintenance costs to compressors in aeration projects and it helps to be forwarned of any issues that may arise with the particular merchandise.
