Sound Shore Ponds
A Master Certified Aquascape Contractor needed a site that matched the size of the portfolio.
The Challenge
Sound Shore Ponds is a family-owned, Master Certified Aquascape Contractor serving Nassau and Suffolk County since 2016, with a portfolio in the hundreds of projects and a 4.8 star Google rating. Long Island is a competitive market with a lot of landscapers who add ponds as a side service. Sound Shore only does water. The old site did not make that distinction obvious, and it did not cover the maintenance and lake management work that keeps the business steady between installs. The service area also runs from Great Neck to Montauk, which is a lot of ground to claim credibly.
Problems Identified
- Competing against landscapers who treat ponds as an add-on
- Certification and rating not visible enough to matter
- Maintenance and lake management work hidden behind new installs
- Service area spanning two counties end to end
- Six service lines with no clear structure

What We Built
We rebuilt the site around specialization and proof. The hero states Long Island's top-rated pond builders, names Nassau and Suffolk, and puts the Master Certified Aquascape Contractor credential, the 4.8 star rating and the BBB accreditation directly beneath it. Six services each get a card and a page: koi and fish ponds, pondless waterfalls, landscape fountains, pond maintenance, lake management and pond renovations. Maintenance and renovation are given equal billing with new builds, because that recurring work is what carries the off-season. The service area is described from Great Neck to Montauk so homeowners across the island recognize themselves.
