Deep-Clean & Silt Removal

Over time, ponds fill with organic matter that clouds the water and smothers habitat. Our deep-clean and silt removal service restores clarity and depth using low-impact methods that protect existing wildlife. From garden ponds to large estate lakes, we remove sludge and excess vegetation to help your pond breathe again.
Specialists in pond desilting and deep-clean South West, we work carefully to preserve the pond’s balance while improving water quality and depth.

Pond Liner Repairs & Leak Fixes

Cracks or leaks can drain a pond’s health fast. We carry out pond liner inspections, leak detection, and full or partial re-lining, using durable materials suited to each site — whether rubber, fibreglass, or natural clay. Our aim is long-term watertight resilience with minimal disruption to plants and animals.


Planting Plans & Ecological Balance

Healthy ponds rely on the right mix of marginal, floating, and oxygenating plants. We design bespoke planting plans that stabilise water quality, control algae, and attract dragonflies, amphibians, and birds. Native species such as flag iris, water mint, and marsh marigold are chosen to enhance both biodiversity and beauty.
Our wildlife pond maintenance across Devon and Cornwall ensures every site remains vibrant, balanced, and full of life.

How often should I have my pond cleaned?

Most ponds benefit from a light clean or vegetation check once or twice a year, usually in spring and autumn. Heavily silted or fish ponds may need more frequent maintenance to prevent algae blooms and oxygen loss.

Do you remove silt and debris without harming wildlife?

Yes. All silt removal and plant management work is carried out carefully to protect amphibians, insects, and other pond life. We use low-impact pumps and manual methods, and schedule work outside key breeding periods whenever possible.

Can you fix a leaking pond liner?

Absolutely. We offer pond liner inspections, leak detection, and repairs across Devon and Dartmoor. Depending on the issue, we can patch, re-line, or install a more sustainable natural clay or bentonite lining.

Do you maintain both wildlife ponds and ornamental ponds?

Yes — we work with everything from wildlife and farm ponds to koi and ornamental water features. Our approach always balances aesthetic goals with ecological health, so your pond stays both beautiful and biodiverse.

What areas do you cover?

Sasaquatics is based in Moretonhampstead, serving Devon, Dartmoor, Teign Valley, Exeter, and the South Hams. Larger or high-impact restoration projects can be arranged elsewhere in the South West.

Can you design or build new ponds as well?

Yes — alongside maintenance, we also design and construct new natural swimming ponds, wildlife ponds, and rewilding wetlands.

Do you offer ongoing maintenance contracts?

We do. Many clients prefer a seasonal or annual maintenance plan to keep their ponds healthy year-round. We can tailor visits to your site’s ecology, size, and use.

How much does pond cleaning or leak repair cost in Devon and Cornwall?

Costs vary depending on pond size, access, and materials. Most small domestic repairs start around £600, as we often need to drain and clean the pond first to locate and make the repair. Full relining or clay sealing for larger ponds is quoted after a site visit.

Do you offer wildlife-friendly pond maintenance?

Yes. We specialise in wildlife pond maintenance across Devon and Cornwall, using low-impact pumps, manual methods, and careful scheduling to avoid disturbance during breeding seasons.
