Ponds Rx has been on contract to treat our neighborhood pond (seasonally, spring thru fall) for the past few years. Pond health has been great; algae blooms minimal and weeds are under control. Monthly report e-mailed promptly after each treatment summarizes pond condition. All questions e-mailed have been quickly answered. Pricing is very good. If you are a single homeowner or part of a neighborhood HOA I recommend seeking out Ponds Rx for a quote. We have been pleased with the results.

We have been with PondsRx for four seasons. Mark and Wryan at PondsRx provide timely and effective service for our pond that is shared among four neighbors. The treatments are on a twice per month basis from April to October. The recommended treatment plan for our pond which had high levels of organic material was aeration, algae control including dye, and shoreline weed control. The results are a much healthier looking pond turning a sometimes eyesore into an asset. Mark and Wryan are friendly, responsive, and helpful and do a good job of answering questions and responding to inquiries. I do not hesitate to recommend their service.

Mark Litwiler from Ponds RX devised a strategy for restoring our neighborhood pond's health and appearance. He understood our HOA's financial constraints and prioritized his recommendations accordingly. One of Mark's recommendations was to install a 4 station aeration system. Ponds RX's knowledgeable and courteous crew worked efficiently to complete the installation in a couple hours. The system has helped to suppress the weeds and algae in our pond and we look forward to working with Mark to implement the remainder of his recommendations. I was very pleased with Mark's punctuality and responsiveness throughout the process.

Worked out great and we are very happy now with our pond water.
Description of Work: I contacted Ponds RX over the 4th of July weekend. The owner responded to my e-mail within 30 minutes. While he does not specialize in small backyard ponds, he gave me wonderful advice via our e-mail conversations. He arranged for me to pick up the proper solution at his office. It worked like a charm and he has kept in touch since as to our experience with the pond water. Great service!

Mark at PondsRx worked with our small loose-knit homeowners association to craft a solution that worked beautifully for our pond. Our pond is surrounded by large trees and takes on a great deal of organic debris each fall which was resulting in unhealthy oxygen levels and unsightly algae growth. The recommended solution of a two-station aerator, semi-monthly aquatic weed control, and pond dye (as needed) has turned a sometimes eye-sore into an asset. We are in our fourth season with PondsRx and our small association is thrilled with the results!
Description of Work: Initial installation of aerator and seasonal pond maintenance.

. We had some "sick" ponds. They added sterile fish, changed chemicals, sprayed the ponds and more. They've added some color to our ponds which gives them a fresh appearance
Description of Work: Ponds Rx handles our homeowners association ponds and does an excellent job. They've made recommendations to improve our ponds health and appearance and have been prompt in analyzing issues and solving problems. This is our second year with them and we've been impressed with their service, integrity and attentiveness.

Thank you so much! It is our passion to do this type of work on each property we visit. After being on the ponds a short time, and after evaluating past work done, or not done, the association had enough trust in us to go with our recommendations. Being proactive, we provided aggressive treatments as well as utilized biological tools. The result is the beautiful ponds this community now enjoys. Thanks so much [Removed Member Name]. It is a pleasure working with you and the Board. Mark

Description of Work: We have a neighborhood pond of about 2 1/2 acres. They have been treating our pond for 3 yrs. We have had others but Mark and his associate do a wonderful job with amazing results. He uses "green" chemicals as much as possible and always leaves a report once they have visited and treated, if needed. They also supply other equipment for the pond and fish. They respond to an e-mail quickly.

Description of Work: They are fabulous! I spoke to them about my daughter's upcoming wedding, the reception which was to be held in my back yard. They worked with us to make sure the ponds looked great! They came out a couple days prior to the wedding and got rid of some emerging algae and put in an extra shot of color. Place was beautiful!

Thank you for the review! We came to the member after one of the large aquatic management companies did not complete or satisfy the pond maintenance as was promised to the customer. We were able to take her pond from a very poor condition to beautiful in a very short period of time. She was very happy that someone actually did what they promised and for less money than the other company asked for.

It took a few months for Mark to get the ponds under control; but, after that, pond quality has been excellent. They've done an excellent job keeping algae and weeds in check. whenever we experienced issues between regular treatments, Mark was responsive in addressing issues. Overall, very pleased with his service. We have sold our home and recommended PondsRX to the new Owners

Mark Litwiler the owner of the company has been fantastic and he's helped me install a fountain in the past. He's very knowledgeable, professional and I highly recommend him to anybody who has a pond or lake and needs some help with maintenance and weed treatment. I have a yearly plan with him and he's very up to date in his aquatic environment issues.

Mark communicated with us by phone and email providing a lot of information (thoroughly addressing all of our concerns) prior to starting the pond care. He provided accurate estimates of the maintenance schedule and has always been very timely and responsive to the care of our pond and to our questions and concerns. The pond has never looked as beautiful as it looks now. Mark is a conscientious and very professional business owner. We will continue to use him for our pond care.

Our pond looks beautiful. It looked terrible before Mark started working on the pond. We are now really enjoying living on the water.
Description of Work: Pond maintenance: Our pond was over grown with algae. Mark came and gave us an estimate for elimination of the algae and maintenance of the pond. It looks great and looked great after the first treatment. He comes every two weeks and leave us a report on what he did. His price was really no different than what we spent last year doing the work ourselves. We are very pleased with how the pond looks and happy that we don't have to do any work to maintain it!

We had a company servicing our pond for years, and it never really looked all that great. I picked Ponds RX out of the phone book and called them to see what they might be able to offer. Mark came out within a few days, spent time with me talking about what we were hoping for, gave us recommendations, and matched our contract price. Since he has been treating it, the overall appearance is much better, and the pond seems healthier. He has given us good information on other environmental things we can be doing to help control pests and algae and so forth. Although the pond is not on my property, I am the president of our HOA, and I will recommend that we continue our contract with Ponds Rx indefinitely. Neighbors are much happier, and our ''eyesore'' pond looks much, much better!!!
Description of Work: They treat a residential pond once a month with chemicals and additives for algae growth and overall appearance. The price is for one month.
