What You Get When Pond Construction Is Done Right

A properly built pond does more than hold water. It manages drainage, supports your land’s value, and serves its purpose without constant maintenance.

  • Your pond holds water year-round: We account for soil type, water table, and compaction to prevent leaks and seepage.
  • Overflow is controlled: Proper grading and spillway design prevent flooding and erosion during heavy rain.
  • Your livestock or fish thrive: Correct depth and slope create the right conditions for water quality and animal access.
  • Your property value increases: A well-constructed pond is a functional asset that makes land more attractive and versatile.

WHY US

Why Property Owners Choose Jae's Dirt Work

Building a pond that holds water isn’t just about digging deep enough. It’s about understanding soil composition, water tables, and how your land moves water naturally.

  • We account for soil conditions: Clay content, compaction, and permeability determine whether your pond seals properly or leaks. We test and build accordingly.
  • We plan for overflow: Heavy rain will test your pond's design. We build spillways and grade approaches to handle runoff without eroding banks or flooding surrounding areas.
  • Owner-operated: Christopher Knight runs every project. When you have questions about depth, placement, or dam construction, you're talking to the person doing the excavation.
  • One call for the whole job: We handle site prep, excavation, and finishing without coordinating multiple contractors.
