Southern Enterprise Awards 2025/ 14 The That Pond Guy story begins with Matthew’s construction of his own koi pond, and he soon spun his passion into a professional service that locals have come to rely on to keep their ponds in tip-top condition. Matthew says, “The mission is simple. Give people a pond that works and looks great and make the whole experience easy and stress-free. We treat every job like we’re working on our own garden, and the results speak for themselves. “The vision has always been to do things properly. No shortcuts. Just honest, professional work that gives people a pond they can be proud of. We’ve now built up over 400 five-star reviews, and as far as I know, we are the highest-rated pond company in the UK. That is something I’m extremely proud of.” Whether the customer is looking for professional pond construction, a thorough clean, or even specialist fibreglassing to waterproof water and protect it from UV rays, temperature changes, and everyday wear and tear, That Pond Guy can tailor its offering to their specific needs to result in a pond that is both pristine and healthy. The company can supply quality pond equipment, too, and its fibreglassing services are even available for swimming pools. Matthew tries to stay involved in most jobs where he can, especially the more technical ones, however, he admits that it is getting harder as the business continues to grow. That isn’t a problem, though, as he has built a solid team around him. Every member of the That Pond Guy team understands the high standard of work that is expected and they enjoy putting their best effort into each project. That Pond Guy is all about honesty, reliability, and completing the job to a high standard. As Matthew says, “No drama, no excuses. We turn up, we get it done, and we leave the customer happy. That’s always been the goal, and it always will be.” Matthew and the team take pride in the level of care they provide for each job, from the first point of contact to the last bucket of water; in everything they do, they are professional, they provide clear communication, and they genuinely want to do a good job. That’s why That Pond Guy receives so much repeat custom and so many glowing personal recommendations. “We’re not interested in selling people things they don’t need,” states Matthew. “We give honest advice, explain things clearly, and make sure the pond is left better than we found it. That’s what people want – someone they can trust. And that’s what we focus on.” That Pond Guy is a small pond care company based in Kent, providing cleaning, maintenance, and building of beautiful bespoke ponds for customers across Kent, London, and surrounding areas.
