LiquidScape Designs Lake and Pond Cleaning Services: Muck, Silt, and Sludge Removal
Lakes and ponds are a great addition to any landscape, but cleaning is required to retain their beauty. Lakes and ponds begin filling with debris as soon as they are constructed. Debris results from dust, leaves, grass, construction runoff, and bank degrading. Debris turns into muck and accumulates as part of the natural aging cycle, this is one key factor to consider when designing a pond for key filtration componenets such as bottom drains and skimmers etc
