About
Founded in 1996, Backyard Ponds builds, repairs and maintains decorative ponds from its Rockville headquarters. We are and have always been a woman-owned business. We provide free estimates for work in our territory. Our services include: designing and installing new and refurbished ponds; repair or replacements for pumps, liners, skimmers, tubing, filters, lighting, aquatic plants, and rock. We diagnose and repair leaks, patch liners, and rebuild waterfalls. We routinely maintain ponds, including cleanings, algae control, water changes, touch-ups, rock realignment, plant trimming and fertilization. We offer a weekly/monthly maintenance plan that will keep your pond sparkling year-round. We have a winterization service that includes blowing out your filtration system, netting ponds and use of de-icers. We carry a wide variety of pond supplies, including plants, fish food, lighting and transformers, pumps, skimmers, rock, filters, pump defenders, de-chlorinators, koi castles, and nets. We do not sell koi or goldfish but sometimes have free fish from overstocked customers that we help re-home. We look forward to meeting you and any pond needs you may have.

I reached out at the hottest part of the summer season so far and was very pleased with the response from Backyard Ponds. I had no filter running in my pond and since I am backed up to a park there was lots of debris in my pond. Additionally, the two ponds in my yard are connected to a creek with running water in between both ponds. So, with nothing running and lots of muck my red eared slider, frogs and fish were suffering. They came out and fixed everything on the hottest day of the year. They needed to come out multiple times to get everything settled and running, but there are now some super happy frogs, turtles and fish in their ponds! I do highly recommend Backyard Ponds. The cost is fairly high, but well worth the expense. Their staff is very professional and knowledgable. Ultimately, I am very happy with their work and my ponds that look like new!

Ive been using backyard ponds for over 13 years. They helped me rebuild a beautiful, old pond and keep it running smoothly. Quick and efficient. Hard working crew and great female management team.
