Property owners and managers in Orlando trust Estate Management Services for management, maintenance and dredging services of their lake or pond that yield premium aquatic health.
The Estate Management Services difference comes from our all-encompassing approach to water maintenance. We not only target invasive weeds, excessive sediment buildup, algae blooms and pollutants, but we support a diversity of aquatic life and manage nutrients, oxygen and erosion for clean and healthy water.
This holistic, balanced approach is crucial to quality pond management. Controlling weeds, sediment and algae promotes biodiversity, maintains oxygen levels and deters pollutants. Removing sediment prevents habitat reduction while removing nutrients that foster algae blooms, which can destroy the pond’s ecological balance and reduce its usability for swimming and fishing.
Quality pond management is also a matter of constant monitoring and adjustment. Changes in chemistry can signal potential pollutants, new invasive species can threaten the pond’s ecological balance, temperature fluctuations can alter oxygen levels and eutrophication can create dead zones. Reacting to each quickly is crucial, as is monitoring external factors such as nearby construction and climate change.
One key benefit of our services to property owners and managers is compliance with environmental regulations such as the Clean Water Act. Our monitoring and care go beyond compliance to embody true environmental stewardship, ensuring long-term stability and sustainability for future generations. In Orlando and beyond, we are dedicated to creating an aquatic environment that is clean, healthy and beautiful.
Our balanced approach keeps your pond healthy and in compliance with environmental laws and regulations, encompassing an entire suite of services. At its core, lake and pond management is a matter of preserving the pond or lake’s ecological balance of plant and animal life, leading to cleaner water, a healthy ecosystem and full compliance with the Clean Water Act. This entails:
Dredging, Harvesting, and Muck Removal: By removing excessive buildup of sediment, we can more easily maintain water quality, prevent flooding by ensuring the pond can drain properly, ensure easy navigation for boaters, and ensure that your pond or lake is compliant with state, local and federal law. Regular removal of muck and sediment can prevent more costly dredging or restoration.
Algae and Aquatic Weed Control: A vital part of a pond’s ecosystem, algae must be constantly monitored to keep it from becoming overgrown, threatening the food chain by sapping the water’s oxygen and eventually shallowing the pond through excessive growth.
Fountains and Aerators: We offer full-service installation and maintenance of fountains and aerators, which not only add a striking visual element to the pond but also keep water healthy through constant oxygenation that prevents fish kills, foul odors and stagnation.
Stocking: Stocking and maintaining a pond’s fish population is key to maintaining a healthy ecosystem, while also providing an attractive element for fishing which can create an economic boost for long-term sustainability. Conversely, management of insect populations through the application of larvicide and continuous movement of water can deter mosquito populations.
Comprehensive Testing and Restoration: Our services include regular water quality monitoring, helping to prevent nutrition imbalances, pollutants and algae blooms before they have a chance to disrupt water quality.
Lake Mapping and Bathymetric Services: To provide informed care and maintenance more accurately, we create a detailed map of your body or water’s depths, contours and submerged features. The additional benefit for you comes from easier navigation and safety for boaters and swimmers.
Shoreline Erosion Management: Through the use of retaining walls, vegetation and riprap, we protect against land loss while preventing excessive sediment runoff which can negatively affect nutrient levels and the health of your lake or pond.
Exceptional Support and Service: Our technicians are trained to the highest standards, holding certifications that represent the height of the industry. Backing up this expertise is the finest local support and a service plan specifically tailored to your exact needs, empowering you to make vital decisions about your lake or pond.
The end goal of all of this is to ensure your body of water remains pristine, healthy, sustainable and compliant with all regulations. Because a clean body of water means a more vital and valuable property. That’s why we’re trusted by private communities, apartment complexes, golf courses, towns and governments, hotels and resorts and recreational water and wildlife management organizations to deliver exceptional results.
