Pond & Lake Construction

At Oakley Sand & Gravel, we specialize in the planning, excavation, and construction of custom ponds and lakes for residential, agricultural, and commercial properties. Every project is approached with a focus on longevity, proper watershed management, and structural integrity, ensuring your water feature performs as well as it looks. Whether you’re creating a recreational fishing pond, a retention basin, a livestock water source, or a centerpiece for your property, our team has the equipment, experience, and technical expertise to bring your vision to life.

Our process begins with a site evaluation to determine soil composition, natural drainage patterns, water sources, and grade requirements. From there, we develop a construction plan tailored to the land — including excavation, shaping, shoreline stabilization, and proper compaction. We also install spillways, overflow structures, and erosion-control measures to keep the pond functioning smoothly for years to come.

Oakley Sand & Gravel is equipped to handle projects of all sizes, from small decorative ponds to multi-acre lake builds. With a deep understanding of soil behavior, grading, and water control, we deliver ponds and lakes that fill correctly, hold water reliably, and blend naturally with the surrounding landscape. Our commitment to quality workmanship ensures each project is built to last and adds lasting value to your property.
