Owner of DFW Ponds Inc., and Certified Aquascape Contractor (CAC), Trey Bradley, believes that “when you have a passion for what you do it shows in your work.” Serving the North Texas, Arlington, Fort Worth, and Decatur Area, DFW Ponds is not a “jack-of-all-trades” landscape company for whom water features are but a small part of its business.

With years of continued dedicated service to all of their customers, DFW Ponds enjoys all aspects of water gardening and loves to share that enjoyment with those they serve.

In addition to the exemplary service, the team regularly takes part in training seminars given by the construction experts at the largest pond supply company in North America, Aquascape™ Inc. Such training includes the building of advanced water features in varied places such as Ireland, Cabo San Lucas Mexico, and at the EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival in Disney World. The national and the regional network of CACs provides DFW Ponds the ability and manpower to tackle just about any size water feature. Included in their services is the growing area of rain water harvesting that is not only great for the landscape but also reduces the amount of run off entering storm drains, which in the long run ends up in rivers and oceans.
