Pond Dredging in Florida

Pond and Lake Management

Dredging is a crucial part of keeping a pond or any body of water clean by removing debris, foreign materials, or excessive sediment from its floor. Failure to properly dredge a body of water can have negative consequences, including:

  • Overflowing and Flooding: A pond’s ability to hold water can be severely affected by sediment clogging the bottom of the water. During periods of heavy rainfall, an improperly dredged pond can easily overflow, flooding its banks.
  • Poor Water Quality: A heavy buildup of sediment in a pond can reduce the amount of oxygen naturally found in the water, creating a hazardous environment for fish and other marine life.
  • Unbalanced Ecosystem: Your pond is more than just a body of water, it’s an entire environment consisting of underwater vegetation and animals. Excessive sediment can corrupt above and below the environment, smothering plant life and damaging spawning grounds.
  • Greater Expense to Maintain: As sediment builds up, it becomes more difficult to remove, and thus more costly. It can also lead to higher repair costs for boats and other watercraft due to damage from non-dredged waters.

Ultimately, keeping up a regular maintenance schedule of dredging your pond every 10-15 years can prevent all difficulties, excessive costs, and potential disasters.

Pond and Lake Management

How Does Dredging Work?

Estate Management Services, Inc. uses a method known as hydraulic dredging to deliver a safe and clean pond. With hydraulic dredging, water is used to break up hardened sediment and debris, which is sucked up by a tiller head with a suction pump, then transported via pipeline to a disposal site. Here, the dredged material will become separated from the water through dewatering bags, which allow the water to be pumped back into the pond free of debris.

Available in three sizes to fit your pond specifications, this approach offers a much quicker, more affordable dredge than a traditional full-drain dredge. Once it is complete, your pond will have balanced nutrients for a healthier pond environment, and your fountains and pumps will be able to run at maximum efficiency.
