That's correct. I'll tell ya as of yet, most cities have NO specifications on ponds. Each city and state is different. We have seen a variety of differences. The bottom line is, the requirements of ponds is very vague. With the growing popularity of ponds I am sure we will see some standards put into place.The Pond Digger

The depth of your pond may very well be determined on what you are looking to get out of your pond. Ponds that are designed for aquatic plants can be as shallow as 18", while high end Koi ponds can be as deep as 8 feet!Three foot is a GREAT DEPTH and four is even better!The Pond Digger

Are fees are determined by the scope of work on the project. There are many different ways to build a pond which is why the cost of a pond is subjective.This feature was approximately 12k to install. A similar pond with LESS TECHNOLOGY to make maintenance easier may only cost 8500 to install.The Pond Digger

most states dont allow ponds deeper than 2 ft with getting a permit that is needed to build a swimming pool.

How deep does a pond in central texas have to be? I'm wanting to be able to get in it. Not to swim but to feed the fish and interact with them. I'm thinking 3-4 feet is good enough.

Americansolider,When I met with the homeowner, I was actually feeling completely opposite. Believe it or not some of these contractors have great sales pitches and specialize in closing deals but not delivering a quality project.Some contractors show photographs of beautiful ponds that they DID NOT build to gain the consumer's confidence. I thought to myself "Damn, another homeowner here that got taken!" The homeowner is actually a very sharp and sincere woman. The Pond Digger
