Spring Openings for Water Features – Proposals Going Out Soon!

Backyard Oasis • March 9, 2025

Spring is on the way, and we’re gearing up to open ponds, waterfalls, and fountains across Michigan! If you want your water feature running smoothly this season, now is the time to plan.


Spring Opening Proposals Are Coming!

We’re currently preparing spring opening proposals for all our clients. If we serviced your water feature last year, you’ll automatically receive your proposal the week of March 17th—no need to do a thing!


🚨 Never scheduled a water feature opening with us before? Now’s your chance! Reach out today to learn more about this essential service and request a proposal.


We plan to start openings in mid-April, depending on Michigan’s unpredictable weather. Once proposals are sent, we’ll follow up with a pre-service survey so you can select your preferred date and let us know any special requests.


What’s Included in a Water Feature Opening?

💦 Pump check & startup – We inspect and restart your system to ensure everything runs smoothly.
🛠️ Cleaning & debris removal – Clearing out leaves, sludge, and any winter buildup to refresh your water feature.
🚿 Deep clean & water change – We pump down the pond and remove built-up debris, giving your water feature a fresh start for the season.
🐟 Fish & plant care considerations – If you have koi, goldfish, or aquatic plants, we take special care to ensure a smooth transition into spring.
✨ And more! Each water feature is unique, and our team takes the time to address any additional maintenance needs. Your proposal and follow-up consultation will include all the details specific to your pond, waterfall, or fountain.


Thinking About More Than Just Your Water Feature?

While you’re planning for the new season, now is the perfect time to refresh your entire landscape! Whether you need a spring cleanup, ongoing bed maintenance, or a complete outdoor transformation, we can help.
