What We Do

At River.ODP, we offer a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet all your garden lake construction needs. Our process is thorough and involves several crucial steps to ensure the highest quality and sustainability.

Site Assessment

We begin with a meticulous site assessment to evaluate the landscape, soil type, water sources, and drainage patterns. This initial step is crucial for planning and successful execution.

Design

Our design team creates detailed plans considering the lake’s size, depth, shape, and intended use—whether it be for recreation, wildlife habitat, or aesthetic enhancement.

Permits and Compliance

We handle all necessary permits from local authorities and ensure compliance with zoning laws and environmental regulations. This includes conducting environmental impact assessments and securing water use permits.

Excavation and Construction

Our skilled builders clear and excavate the site according to the design plan. We ensure proper grading for water flow and stability before installing liners to prevent water leakage.

Water Management

We construct inlet and outlet structures to manage water flow and maintain lake levels. Our systems include spillways and drainage systems to ensure sustainable water management.

Filling and Landscaping

Once the lake is constructed, we fill it with water—preferably from natural sources such as rainwater collection systems. We then plant native vegetation around the lake to prevent erosion, enhance aesthetics, and support local wildlife.

Maintenance

Our services don’t end with construction. We offer regular inspections, water quality monitoring, and wildlife management to ensure your garden lake remains in pristine condition.
