Design

The A.G.A Group can undertake all aspects of the pre-contract detailing work on a proposed project to ensure the long term success of the pond or lake construction. We take care to conform to all regulatory requirements and work with best practice construction methods. Where necessary we will carry out feasibility studies, budget costing and concept design. We can format ecological restoration projects and provide erosion assessments and control solutions, and where necessary submit plans for approval.

Due to the fact that A.G.A Group has aquatic management as one of its core disciplines the company can offer many additional benefits as your construction contractor. You can be sure that your lake or pond will be designed to maximise all of the benefits that nature can provide, by ensuring that the lake or pond profile is correct.

This enables the potential of aquatic plants to be fully realised, whilst making sure that the depths and contours are correct to encourage aquatic productivity and to also ensure that any potentially problematic invasive aquatic plants are constrained by the environment itself. Correct design and construction from the start can save thousands of pounds in future maintenance of any pond or lake.

The design stage is critical for the success of any proposed pond or lake construction and it is where a project can, if planned carefully fulfill its ecological potential and become a benefit to the wider environment providing habitat for a variety of species. The A.G.A Group has a specialist design team to make sure that any project undertaken will be carefully planned and carried out to industry ISO 14001 / 9001 standards.

The A.G.A Group carries out a lot of environmental consultancy work for clients and as such this is integrated into both the design and construction stage of any new pond or lake
