Pond Excavating

Mountain Top Portable Toilets and Septic Service proudly offers pond excavation services in the Albany and Troy, NY areas. Whether you are creating a pond to add aesthetic appeal to your property or adding it as a water source for agricultural purposes, we can help. 


Creating a pond on your property may seem easy. However, it's far more than just digging a hole. When it comes to pond excavating, there are multiple assessments that need to be completed to test the soil to ensure a pond can realistically be built on your property. Instead of costing yourself a lot of time and money, it is important to rely on a professional excavation company. Our team will also look out for underground pipes and water mains. Save yourself the headache and work with the team at Mountain Top Portable Toilets and Septic Service. We can help design your new pond, as well as work with any slopes of the property to make sure the pond functions according to plan for years to come.

Rely on us when you need pond excavating services!

Since each pond is different, the process of building them will vary. However, there are a few principles that are the same no matter the shape or size of your pond. The first step is to outline the area to have a clear idea of the pond's shape. Next, the soil will be removed to certain depths depending on your design.


Depending on your location in the Capital Region, a permit may be needed. Our team can help determine if a permit is needed for your project and obtain one if needed. The time frame of the project will depend on the size of the pond and the type of dirt. Soil is easy to dig, but clay is more difficult.
