Andre came to quote for a repair to our traditional stone circular pond, which was leaking, he discussed with us an alternative to repairing by installing an Aquascape pond which would be a more natural environment and attract more wildlife.
We discussed the layout as we wanted a fountain going into the pond with rocks and colourful plants. What he has created is a work of art and we are very pleased with it.
He has such an attention to detail placing rocks so the water runs just at the right angle & studying from different areas to ensure it looks good from the house looking down & from anywhere in the garden.
We are excited to see the wildlife & the plants when they mature through the year ahead.
Already after a few weeks we have thousands of tadpoles, the fish are thriving and the plants are starting to spread and bloom, it really does look absolutely beautiful.
Thank you Andre
Andre is a master of his art. We inherited a traditional circular pond, showing lots of black liner (which leaked), surrounded by a concrete circle. Andre discussed with us an alternative to just replacing the liner, which would be a more natural environment and attract more wildlife. We discussed the general idea of stream, pond, rocks and beach area. What he has delivered is over and above anything we imagined. It is stunning and we love it. He has such an eye for detail in placing rocks and plants, studying from every angle to ensure a perfect picture from anywhere in the garden. I cannot wait to enjoy all the seasons with my grandchildren, creating many memories and encouraging their joy of wildlife.
Wellies and Waders have just completed a pond build for us here in the South Hams of Devon. We gave Andre the brief of creating a natural looking, wildlife friendly pond with a small stream to remind us of a Dartmoor stream.
The finished project exceeds our expectations and is infinitely better than the old, preformed pond which it replaced. The pond looks fantastic, the stream is fantastic and he also added a second small waterfall for additional contrast and impact.
Andre is not only a perfectionist with a great attention to detail but throughout the build he was working on the pond as if it was his own garden and he was building it for his own enjoyment. Our garden has been transformed and we and our children are delighted.
Andre is an absolute pleasure to deal with and we could not recommend him highly enough.
André Crawford has done a lovely job of remodelling and cleaning my garden pond. At 98, I do not get out very much and my pond has been a wonderful source of entertainment. It is full of newts which appear in spring and summer and the occasional frog, dragonflies and other insects. It was created by a huge amount of hard work and design flair by André. Thank you so much.
“Well done Andre’ all your hard work has paid off transforming our ponds from over grown and neglected embarrassment to a wonderful water feature and the jewel in our garden! We would highly recommend you above anyone else in the Bay who we have used in the past and had very disappointing results with no interest in after sales care, you have been completely the opposite going that extra mile and offering a great ongoing maintenance service!”
“André is very reliable, extremely hard working and takes pride in his work. His knowledge of ponds is excellent. He did an amazing job transforming our overgrown pond into a beautiful feature.
Our grandchildren loved watching and helping where able as they are young and learnt a great deal about ponds and the wild life that was present in it.
Highly recommend.”
Wellies and Waders thrive on providing premium customer service and the highest quality of work in a timely manner. We make your pond our priority so you don’t have to.

Our professional pond cleaning service ensures your pond stays clean, clear, and healthy. Every package includes a full pond drain and clean, safe fish handling, filtration and pump servicing, plant trimming, and the application of eco-friendly treatments to maintain water quality. We check the pond structure and refill it with treated water, ensuring a balanced ecosystem. Choose the right package for your pond and keep it looking its best all year round.
For ponds that have been neglected, our professional cleaning service goes the extra mile to restore clarity, health, and balance. We follow the same process as our standard cleaning service but with additional time dedicated to removing built-up sludge, debris, plantation, and algae. These ponds require a more intensive approach to return them to their original beauty, and we make sure everything is properly serviced and restored for optimal function.
We understand that providing details about your pond or planned project takes time, and we truly appreciate it. Your information is kept strictly confidential and is only used to help us better understand your needs.
By gathering as much detail as possible upfront—including your contact details, pond measurements, and specific requirements—we can provide a more realistic estimate of costs and logistics before our consultation. This helps avoid unexpected surprises and ensures our discussion is as productive as possible before final costings are confirmed.
If you’re unsure about any part of the form or need assistance filling it in, we’re happy to help! Feel free to call us directly, and we’ll guide you through the necessary details.
If we don’t answer straight away, don’t panic – this usually means we’re with another customer. Just leave us a message, and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
