Ponds, shorelines, and dry creek features shaped around drainage, access, and long-term maintenance.

Ponds & Dry Creeks

Scope

Good water features start as site work. TerraTech plans the grades, edges, access, and drainage behavior before the feature is treated as a finished landscape element.

  • Pond and shoreline planning
  • Dry creek beds for drainage and landscape structure
  • Access and cleanup around creek or pond areas
  • Stone, soil, and planting coordination
  • Erosion control around moving or detained water

Process

  1. 01

    Study where water comes from, where it sits, and where it exits.

  2. 02

    Shape the feature around maintenance access and stable edges.

  3. 03

    Finish with materials that make the water path look designed, not accidental.

Questions

Can a dry creek actually move water?

Yes. A dry creek can be both a drainage path and a landscape feature when graded correctly.

Do you design before building?

Yes. Ponds and creek features need planning before excavation starts.
