Pond Construction in San Antonio, TX
New stock ponds, retention ponds, and pond clean-outs.
About our pond construction service
JT Land Solutions builds new ponds and cleans out existing ones across San Antonio and the surrounding ranch country. We dig, shape, and pack stock ponds, wildlife ponds, retention basins, and decorative ponds — sized and shaped to hold water and last.
Already have a pond that's silted in or leaking? We pump it down, dig out the muck, re-shape the bowl, and pack the clay back so it holds water again.

How big of a pond can you build?
We handle residential and ranch-size ponds — most jobs are a quarter-acre to a couple acres of surface.
How long does a pond take?
A typical stock pond runs 3–7 working days depending on size and soil.
Will my pond hold water?
If your soil has enough clay we can pack it to hold. We test on the walk-through before quoting.
