Dredging
In some cases, lakes or ponds may have been neglected for extended periods, resulting in a buildup of silt and sediment that necessitates dredging. At The Pond Specialist, we employ excavators and load-dumper trucks for this purpose, ensuring an efficient and effective dredging solution.
To minimise costs associated with wet material removal, our preference is to deposit it on-site whenever feasible. This material can then undergo a drying process, allowing for potential reuse within your garden or, when necessary, it can be responsibly transported to an authorised landfill. Rest assured, this is a task we've successfully undertaken numerous times.
When conducting excavations, safety is paramount. Ideally, the work is carried out from the lake or pond's banks to reduce the risks associated with heavy machinery in the water. To further enhance safety and reach, we utilise long-reach machines that can extend considerably beyond the capabilities of standard machinery, reducing the likelihood of encountering any difficulties. Trust The Pond Specialist for expert pond and lake restoration services that prioritise both efficiency and safety.
