Looking for proven pond builders or an excavation crew you can trust? Kloubec Earthworks delivers start-to-finish solutions that help your land do more: hunt better, look sharper, and last longer.

 

  • Pond Construction – As a leading Midwest pond builder, we handle everything in-house from site walk and design to earthwork and finishing. We bring a hunter’s eye and a builder’s discipline: core trenching, moisture-conditioned compaction, and properly sized overflow/spillway systems. Want more than “just water”? Ask about islands, fishing shelves, beach entries, and fish friendly shorelines that turn your pond into a year-round destination.
  • Pond Dredging & Renovation – If silt and sludge have crept in, we’ll bring your water back to life restoring depth, refreshing shorelines, and improving function with minimal disturbance to the surrounding property. Not sure whether dredging is needed? We’ll assess your pond and map the most effective path to healthier water.
  • Excavation and Grading  – Great ponds start with great dirt work. Our in-house operators handle grading, trenching, demolition, roads and driveways, culverts, compaction, backfill, tree clearing & grubbing, and full site prep using the right iron and an eye for a clean finish.

Customer Reviews

JULIE E. 5.0 ★★★★★

Very happy with the pond we had put in this summer! Nick came to review the site and discuss what we wanted. He really listened and did everything just as we wanted and even happily accommodated a late change we asked about making. The price was actually very competitive, too. You won’t be disappointed if you choose Kloubec Earthworks – they know ponds!

JESSE SARGENT 5.0 ★★★★★

I’d highly recommend Kloubec Earthworks. Nick helped us design and build a pond on our hunting property a few years ago, we absolutely love it. We are planning to add a swim pond this year at home, wouldn’t consult anyone else.

JESSICA HILTON 5.0 ★★★★★

Last summer, we worked with Kloubec Earthworks to put in our pond on our property. Nick listened to our thoughts and helped us design the most beautiful pond! We loved his suggestion for the location and we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. He made sure it was done perfectly and that we were completely happy with the work. Holly has always been quick to respond to our questions and we can’t wait to work with her to fill the pond with fish this Spring! Nick and Holly are very trustworthy, responsive, knowledgeable and give great advice. We highly recommend this family business!
