Pond Cleanouts in Washington County, AR

Your pond likely needs a cleanout if the water is murky, smells bad, or the depth has dropped noticeably over the years. Heavy weed and algae growth is another clear sign that organic muck has built up on the bottom.

A pond cleanout removes the layer of muck, silt, and debris that has settled on the pond bottom. This typically means getting equipment in to pull that material out and deposit it away from the water so it cannot wash back in.

Ponds that receive runoff from fields or wooded land tend to accumulate sediment faster, which can mean more material to remove during a cleanout. Felten Logging LLC works on rural ponds across Crawford County and understands what that kind of buildup looks like.
