How Much Does a Pond Cost?

Costs for a pond include:

Factors to determine costs:

Pond size

Most initial estimates will be based on the general size of your pond. A typical lined pond will range from $1.50-2.50/sq ft. A ½ acre pond general estimate is $33,000-55,000. After we meet to start defining the goals of the owner, we can start to narrow down the estimate to a more defined range.
