Retention Pond Vegetation Management That Keeps Water Flowing and Inspectors Happy
Retention and detention ponds are built to protect your property—and they can quickly become liabilities when overgrown. Ground Force partners with HOAs, property managers, and commercial developers to maintain vegetation around pond banks, drainage outlets, and erosion-prone zones. Whether you need help passing inspection or preventing flooding, we’ve got you.
“We were cited for overgrowth twice—then Ground Force took over. They cleaned it up, helped us pass re-inspection, and now handle everything quarterly.”
— HOA President, Residential Community in Oconee County
