Federal Way Lake, Retention Pond & Stormwater Cleaning
Many commercial and residential properties mitigate the risk of flooding by having stormwater and retention ponds. These require regular maintenance as do lakes. Our lake and pond cleaning and stormwater management company in Federal Way offers these services tailored to your needs.
Retention Pond Cleaning, Spraying & Maintenance
Retention ponds need to be maintained to prevent an overgrowth of plants from blocking the passage of water. It’s also important to ensure that the pond doesn’t become a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
Given that most retention ponds aren’t as large of a body of water typically as most lakes, it’s imperative that the water quality be tested and maintained to ensure it stays in balance. This will help alleviate “blooms” of massive algae and/or aquatic weed and vegetation growth in the Spring and Summer.
As part of retention pond cleaning in Federal Way, we offer pond weed spraying, clearing and removal. Similarly, our company can assist with shoreline and wetland vegetation removal services. This includes cattails; spraying, uprooting and digging out and hauling away.
If you’re looking for retention pond algae and aquatic weed removal in Federal Way that focuses on offering the results you want without harming your ecosystem, we can help.
Be sure to check out our service packages and call us now at 425-504-7047 for retention pond cleaning and maintenance in Federal Way.
Lake Cleaning & Spraying in Federal Way, WA
Our Federal Way lake cleaning company can keep weeds, algae, cattails and all manner of brush cleared to offer an aesthetically pleasing and healthy lake. Our lake weed clearing service uses carefully selected tools and chemicals to manage unwanted vegetation without harming lake wildlife or throwing the natural system out of balance.
We measure pH levels to help promote the right plant life while removing those that are invasive and capable of harming water quality in your lake. Our services also include regular management of customer lake properties, allowing us to achieve long-term results. We make sure we protect fish and wildlife that use these lakes.
Alternatively, we do offer certain spray compounds for particularly invasive weeds or an overgrown lake that requires a deep clean. Our experienced specialists will go over the options with new or repeat customers so they understand our recommendations while factoring in the lake ecosystem.

Stormwater Management & Maintenance
Stormwater management in Federal Way involves a number of crucial services. For a start, our company checks for erosion issues that could lead to flooding. Erosion is a serious issue, but it can be managed with gravel and plantings if caught early.
We also provide stormwater system weed removal services. Weeds, twigs, brush, blackberry and other nettle bushes and even branches can easily clog the waterways your stormwater system relies on. With our stormwater drain cleaning and weed spraying services, you can avoid blocked passages that could lead to burst pipes, acrid smells, mosquito infestation and flooding.
We foster healthy ecosystems when providing stormwater cleaning, maintenance and management in Federal Way, WA. By relying on biological controls and carefully selecting the tools and chemicals we use, we are after water quality that’s strong and secure.

Vegetation Removal
Our tree and vegetation removal company helps ensure that neither tree nor brush roots create erosion issues in your ponds and lakes. We use sustainable herbicides that kill the targeted plants, allowing us to dig them out and remove them from your property.
With our brush removal company in Federal Way, you can expect fast services that get the job done without destroying wanted vegetation or polluting the lake water. You can count on us to provide top-quality bush removal service in Federal Way.
Lake and retention pond clearing includes spraying unwanted vegetation in or around the shoreline and then carefully uprooting it. Uprooting instead of cutting prevents the plants from growing back while avoiding putting undue stress on the soil.
You don’t have to worry about disposal, either — we do it all. Call us at 425-504-7047 for vegetation removal in Federal Way.
Wetland Management
Northwest Lake Cleaning has years of experience with wetland maintenance services. For instance, we’ll remove invasive plant species that could destroy native ones. We remove these plants through uprooting, clearing and hauling away.
Our team also offers Federal Way wetland weed removal. Weeds can drain the nutrients that other plants need, creating a serious imbalance in the ecosystem that could endanger the wetlands. Weeds are also uprooted, cleared and hauled away.
In addition to vegetation and weed removal, Northwest Lake Cleaning can provide water treatment services to improve the quality of the water in your wetland ecosystem. Coupled with that, our specialists can offer lake and pond cleaning, weeding, cattail removal, brush and bush removal and haul away, among other services that cater to your property needs.
Water Treatment for Muck Control
Our lake water treatment company offers muck control services that can prevent water stagnation. If left untreated, this causes foul odors and allows bacteria to flourish. In addition, the muck will be a breeding ground for mosquitoes, flies and other problematic insects.
Our lake muck water treatment services involve using special tablets that help break down organic matter, reducing odors and keeping the water looking its best. In certain cases, our specialists may need to initially manually clear out the lake or retention pond in order that a majority of the muck and debris are physically removed.
Once this has been done, then we’ll work to get the water treatment stabilized and a short and long term maintenance plan in place to keep the lake or pond in optimal shape.
Cattail Removal Services in Federal Way
Cattails can be beautiful in many instances, but they tend to spread and grow rapidly. A few cattails can quickly overpower other plants and affect your water body’s aesthetics. Cattail spraying and removal in Federal Way is highly effective, but it must be done correctly to achieve lasting results.
Our team of experts will assess the cattail growth on your property and rely on the right herbicides to kill the plants while not creating an imbalance in the water body's unique ecosystem.
Effective and long-lasting cattail removal in Federal Way can require more than one treatment. Cattails are sturdy and sometimes even withstand herbicides. You can tell the treatment has worked when you begin seeing brown stems and leaves.
Once the plants die, our wetland cattail removal and spraying experts will come to uproot and remove them. This is a vital step. Without it, you end up with decaying organic matter that can rapidly lead to foul odors. Dead cattails can also end up feeding other cattails.
Our team offers cost-effective and fast solutions to your cattail problems so that you can start enjoying your water body once again. When you partner with us, you’ll get specialists in Federal way cattail removal.
To learn more about our spraying and removal of cattails, check out our service packages and then give us a call for free at 425-504-7047.

Learn more about the types of vegetation we remove.
Weeds in Ponds or Lakes
Lake and retention pond weeds can be unsightly and crowd out more desirable plants. Our team offers lake weed clearing in Federal Way for the three main types of weeds: submerged, floating, and emergent.
Submerged Weeds
Submerged weeds grow underwater, though some have tops that break the water’s surface. Our experts at pond aquatic weed removal in Federal Way have experience removing submerged weeds like:
Hydrilla
Mudmat
Fanwort
Starry stonewort
Submerged weeds can be dangerous for boats and wildlife alike because they often grow in large quantities that propellers and fish fins can get tangled in.
Floating Weeds
The bodies of floating weeds and plants are mostly above the water, with only the root system submerged. These roots are typically not attached to soil. Because the plants can drift into neighboring waterways, they can spread rapidly along large areas. Common floating plants include:
Water chestnut
Water lettuce
Giant Salvinia
Our Federal Way lake weed spraying company can help remove these and prevent their proliferation.
Emergent Weeds
Emergent weeds grow in shallow water and stand upright, with many leaves and sometimes their entire bodies out of the water. These plants can quickly take over shorelines. Examples include:
Water primrose
Smartweed
Torpedo grass
Our lake weed spraying service in Federal Way can eradicate these weeds and protect your shoreline.
To get started, view our service packages and then call us now for your complimentary consultation at 425-504-7047.
Algae in Federal Way Retention Ponds and Lakes
At Northwest Lake Cleaning, we also offer lake algae removal in Federal Way, targeting these three types of algae:
Filamentous Algae
Filamentous algae grows in slimy and stringy patches. It can be green, yellow, or brown, and can quickly take over an entire lake. To manage them, you need a pond water treatment service company with experience.
Planktonic Algae
Our lake cleaning and spraying company in Federal Way removes planktonic algae as well. This algae variety can reduce the amount of oxygen in the lake or pond, putting other plants and wildlife at risk.
Macro-Algae
This type of algae resembles other water plants. It grows in the soil but doesn’t have roots. By relying on an experienced lake algae removal company in Federal Way, Washington, you can maintain the right balance in your water body.
If your lake or retention pond is overgrown or blooming algae, don’t wait any longer! Check out our service packages and then receive your free consultation with our specialists by calling 425-504-7047.
