ABOUT THIS LOCATION
Pond Maintenance in Medina, OH
Jones Lake Management works on ponds and lakes throughout the Medina area from our office at 1486 Medina Rd. Our biologists start by looking at the waterbody itself, because the weeds or the algae or the thin fish population are usually a symptom of something upstream of them, and treating the symptom alone tends to buy you one season. Retail products are available at this location, and Fish Days pickups run here on a published schedule.
Pond and lake services in the Medina area
No two ponds need the same work, so most Medina-area properties end up with some combination of the following. If you are not sure which of these you need, that is what the site visit is for.
Weed and algae control. Algae and aquatic weed control for filamentous and planktonic growth, cattail control and removal along the shoreline, and invasive weed control where a non-native species has taken hold. Where a treatment is not the right tool, mechanical weed removal pulls the material out instead.
Aeration and fountains. Fountains and aeration covers selection and installation, the surface aeration program, seasonal fountain winterization, and fountain and aeration maintenance once a unit is in.
Fish stocking and fisheries. Fish stocking, fish population surveys to find out what is actually in there before you add more, habitat installation, and ongoing fisheries management.
Water quality. Nutrient reduction and water quality and clarification address the nutrient load that feeds the growth in the first place.
Shoreline, sediment, and stormwater. Riprap and shoreline weed control, shoreline renovation, dredging when sediment has taken the depth, and stormwater pond management for detention and retention basins with compliance obligations.
Retail and Fish Days pickup in Medina
This is a retail location, so pond and lake products can be picked up here during open hours, Wednesday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We are closed Monday and Tuesday.
Fish Days are scheduled pickup days for stocking fish, running 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. If you are stocking a pond and want to collect the fish yourself rather than schedule a delivery, this is how that works. See the Fish Days schedule for current dates, or read 3 Ways to Buy Fish if you are not sure which option fits.
Who we work with in the Medina area
We work with private landowners with a single pond, community associations and HOAs managing shared water features, corporate campuses and office parks, golf courses, hospitality and retail properties, and municipalities. The service mix differs quite a bit between them: an HOA detention basin has compliance obligations a backyard pond does not, and a golf course pond has irrigation considerations neither of the others has.

FAQs
Yes. Our Medina office at 1486 Medina Rd. serves ponds and lakes in the surrounding area, covering weed and algae control, aeration, fish stocking, water quality work, and shoreline and sediment services. Most properties start with a site visit and a free estimate so the plan matches what the waterbody actually needs.
Yes, and it is the most common reason people call. Our biologists identify what is growing before anything is applied, because filamentous algae, a planktonic bloom, duckweed, and a submerged pondweed are four different problems with four different answers. Treatment is one part of it; the nutrient load feeding the growth is the other. See algae and aquatic weed control.
Yes. That includes selecting and installing fountains and aerators, the surface aeration program, seasonal winterization, and maintenance and repair on units already in place. Aeration is often what makes a weed or algae treatment hold for more than one season, so the two get discussed together more often than not.
Yes. Medina is a retail location, and Fish Days run 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM on scheduled dates for pickup of stocking fish. Check the Fish Days schedule for current dates. If you would rather have fish delivered, or want a stocking plan first, 3 Ways to Buy Fish walks through the options.
We serve counties and communities throughout the greater Medina, Ohio area. We also have offices in Streetsboro, Columbus, Bowling Green, Miamisburg, and Cincinnati, so if Medina isn't the closest one, our locations page will point you to the right office.
