Proud Ponds

I had a bed frame taken down and disposed of, along with a shower head replacement, and the service was absolutely spectacular. Aaron arrived early, which I really appreciated, and communicated with me professionally throughout the entire process. He made everything extremely easy and stress-free. Aaron was reliable, efficient, and provided outstanding customer service from start to finish. I would definitely recommend his services to anyone looking for quality work and a smooth experience.

I am very impressed with Proud Ponds. Aaron, the owner is quick to respond, very professional and honest. I called to see if he could fix my water feature that was installed by another pond company and he was over the next day (it’s a holiday weekend). Thank you! I appreciate his knowledge, positive attitude and expertise. My water feature is perfect. He explained everything he did, answered all my questions and gave me some advice to help maintain long-lasting use. I’m having him and a colleague out here to do some more work including a possible addition to the water feature.

Very creative and honest. Professional service. Great communication. I'm glad I found Proud Ponds. Aaron is very good and loves to work on ponds. I had him clean my never before cleaned pond; it is a night and day difference! Thanks again, guys!!

I am so glad I called when I did. I’ve been stressing about next steps for months, and within a few days I had my pond maintenance plan and a fall netting. It was even better than I had hoped! I trust and refer them to anyone in the future.

A huge THANK YOU to Aaron from Proud Ponds for the incredible job on our pond installation in Barrington! From start to finish, Aaron and his team were absolute professionals. The design perfectly complements our yard, and the attention to detail is outstanding. We couldn’t be happier with the beautiful, natural ecosystem they created. The waterfall adds such a relaxing ambiance, and the sound of running water has truly transformed our outdoor space into a peaceful retreat. Aaron’s passion and expertise were evident throughout the entire process—he clearly loves what he does, and it shows in his work. If you’re considering a pond or water feature, don’t look any further. Aaron and Proud Ponds are the BEST in the business. Thank you again, Aaron, for bringing our backyard vision to life!

Pre-service call Aaron did a great job of keeping in contact. When service call was scheduled, he showed up on time as promised, and completed the job in a timely manner We were pleased with his work and scheduled additional work to be done

i can’t say enough great things about Aaron and the team at Proud Ponds in Wauconda! They recently installed an aquascape pondless waterfall in my yard, and it has completely transformed my outdoor space. The design is absolutely stunning—natural, peaceful, and exactly what I had envisioned. Aaron and his crew were incredibly professional, detail-oriented, and passionate about their work. They took the time to explain every step of the process and made sure everything was perfect before they wrapped up. It’s clear they truly care about creating something special for their clients. The sound of the water is so relaxing, and I’ve already received countless compliments from friends and neighbors. Thank you, Aaron, and the entire Proud Ponds team for bringing this beautiful feature to life! If you’re considering adding a water feature to your yard, Proud Ponds is the way to go!

I’ve been cutting this guy‘s hair for 25+ years. This is my brother. I’ve seen him create some of the most creative brands in Lake County Illinois and with this brand proud ponds that’s owned and created. He’s been an absolute blessing to the community he’s hired a lot of people and make sure that they’re all taken care of. I recommend this brand because I know the owner personally. He’s a family man with over a decade of construction and landscape experience.

Aaron always responds quickly and will complete the work at a reasonable price! He is very knowledgeable about all things koi and koi ponds! He will trouble shoot and help guide you with your pond needs which is very hard to find in our area! Thank you Aaron and your team

Aaron and his team are top notch. They did a greta job evaluating my water feature and finbing/fixing the leak. I will use them from now on for Fall and Spring startup/shutdown service. So glad I found them! UPDATE: I decided to have Aaron and team renovate my small pond. What a difference! It is transformed. Aaron is a real artist. Trust him to do his thing and you will be pleased!
