Retention Pond Renovation, Clearing & Cleaning in Metro Atlanta

When Retention Ponds Become a Problem

Retention ponds are designed to manage stormwater—not become overgrown, inaccessible liabilities. Over time, lack of maintenance and delayed repairs can turn a functional pond into a compliance issue and a costly problem.

Common issues we’re called in to fix include:

• Heavy overgrowth, brush, and invasive vegetation

• Sediment buildup reducing storage capacity

• Blocked or damaged inlets and outlets

• Unsafe or inaccessible slopes and banks

• Standing water, erosion, and drainage failures

• Complaints from residents, inspectors, or local authorities

When these problems are ignored, costs escalate fast. Renovation and clearing restore function, improve access, and reduce long-term risk.

Retention Pond Renovation Done Right

Retention pond renovation isn’t routine mowing. It requires the right equipment, experience, and an understanding of how pond systems function and fail.

We focus specifically on clearing, cleaning, and restoring retention ponds that have been neglected, overgrown, or damaged over time. Every project starts with a site evaluation so the work is scoped correctly and problems aren’t just hidden or postponed.

Our renovation and clearing services typically include:

• Clearing heavy vegetation, brush, and invasive growth

• Sediment and debris removal to restore capacity

• Cleaning and re-establishing inlets and outlets

• Improving access for ongoing maintenance

• Stabilizing slopes and problem areas where feasible

The goal isn’t cosmetic cleanup. It’s restoring function, improving drainage performance, and reducing future risk for the property.
