Johannes did a great job and helped me so much. He not only cleaned the pond but also arranged plants and organised a new pump (as the old one had broken). Now the water circulates and I hope it stays clean. Can highly recommend Johannes who is a lovely young man and easy to work with.

Top Garden Pond Maintenance related questions

Having a garden pond has many benefits. For one, a pond adds a beautiful and relaxing ambience to your garden and gives you a slice of nature in the middle of your home. Ponds also support and encourage wildlife and can serve as a haven for local birds, frogs, and other mammals which can even help you control the presence of insects. Lastly, ponds conserve water as they can naturally be filled with rainwater, unlike regular lawn watering.
The best way to keep your pond water clean is to avoid fish overpopulation as too much fish waste can result in water imbalance. Make sure to feed your fish the right amount of food as uneaten fish food can be left to decay in your pond. It's also best to choose the right filters relative to your pond's size. Ideally, your water filters should have the same size as your pond.
How long a garden pond maintenance service takes all boils down to how severe the issues are and how big your pond is. Typical maintenance work such as filter replacements and debris removal can take anywhere between two to three hours while more extensive repairs like patching of leaks may require additional time. If you want to know exactly how long your service will take, just ask your Tasker, and they'll readily give you an estimate.
A clean and properly-maintained pond is the focal point of any garden. To keep your garden pond looking its best, you should clean your pond regularly, manage the growth of plants and algae, repair any leaks as soon as possible, and maintain the right water temperature. Seasonal care is also needed to ensure your pond doesn't freeze over during wintertime or have any decaying leaves left in the water during the autumn season.
Yes, they can! If you need help in cutting your grass, watering your plants, or mowing your lawn, we can help you find skilled gardeners who can tend to your garden and keep it alive and healthy. You can also book a garden maintenance service if you require more specific gardening tasks such as tree pruning, hedge trimming, and mulching. In case you're looking for a change, we also have garden contractors who can help refurbish your garden for you.
If you're looking to redesign your garden, we have plenty of landscape designers who can help you organise your thoughts and map out your vision. Our skilled landscapers can then take on the task of making that vision come to life through installing pathways, irrigation, and other features. If ever you're looking to refurbish not just your garden but your other living areas, you can also book a building contractor to help you with your renovation project.

What do garden pond maintenance services include?

Maintaining a beautiful and healthy pond requires proper care and attention. With Airtasker, we make it easy and convenient for you to hire skilled specialists who can handle all your pond maintenance needs. Whether it's fixing leaks, replacing filters or pumps, or general pond cleaning, you won't have to worry as our Taskers can get the job done right away. For a better idea of what we can offer you, here are more details:

Garden pond maintenance

Good preventive maintenance is key to keeping your garden pond in tip-top shape. Since each pond or water feature has its unique conditions and qualities, you can get help from a Tasker who can do a maintenance and cleaning service that fits your pond's needs. 

Pond owners often notice blanket weed, algae overgrowth, or green water on their garden ponds. Your Tasker can install a new filter system and UVC bulb or advise you on the best algae treatment to help return your pond's water to a crystal clear colour. They can also take out any floating debris such as dried leaves and uneaten fish food and keep your pond protected by installing netting and other recommended filtration options.

Garden pond repair

Once you notice your garden pond leaking and losing water, it's crucial to get it fixed as soon as possible. Airtasker has plenty of pond repair experts who can assist you in getting your garden pond back in good running condition. The first step involves turning your pond equipment off to prevent ongoing water loss. 

Your Tasker can then trace the source of the leakage. It can either be in your pond liner, discharge duct or feed, or at the space where your duct is attached to the filter or pump. Once they locate the leak, all it takes is a simple process of quickly patching it up with a pond repair kit, and your garden pond repair is completed in no time.

Garden pond installation

In case you're looking to install a new pond for your garden, you can also turn to our Taskers for help. Pond construction is a detailed and complex job that requires the skills and expertise of a seasoned installer. After you've chosen where to install your pond, your Tasker can dig through the area while making sure there are no gas, electrical, or plumbing lines underneath. 

Afterwards, a plastic liner, as well as flagstone, is laid out inside the hole. Then, a pump is placed and attached to the tubing. All gaps are then covered with a creative arrangement of rocks and stones. To complete your pond installation, your Tasker adds water and other aquatic plants for a tropical oasis right in your home.
