Addressing erosion along water shorelines and watersheds is imperative, and at The Pond Coach, we offer comprehensive solutions to protect and restore these vital areas. Our services include both rip rap installations and environmentally-friendly coir logs. With rip rap, we ensure resilient protection against erosion by strategically placing boulders to absorb wave energy and prevent soil loss.
Alternatively, our coir logs not only control erosion but also create a nurturing environment for plant growth. By planting the coir logs along the shoreline, we contribute to the restoration of the area, establishing a natural barrier that fosters vegetation growth.
We understand the importance of maintaining a healthy pond ecosystem, which is why we offer the most effective solution for removing nitrates and nutrients continuously: floating islands. Our approach goes beyond mere functionality; we strategically place islands not only to enhance the aesthetic appeal of your pond but also to nourish the plants we want to keep on the island before the aquatic vegetation we don’t want has the opportunity to take root. As the plants grow, the islands blend seamlessly into the landscape, appearing as though they have always been there. These islands serve as giant pond filters and nitrate-removing machines! They can be customized to any size. Contact us for a quote.
