Retention ponds are designed to manage stormwater runoff and prevent flooding on your property. They are typically deeper with engineered slopes and are common on larger residential and commercial properties in Volusia County. We excavate retention ponds to proper specifications so they handle water flow effectively during Florida's heavy rain seasons.

Decorative ponds are built for beauty, recreation, and property enhancement. They are shaped to look natural with gradual banks, and are perfect for fishing, attracting wildlife, or simply adding a water feature to your landscape. Whether you need a functional retention pond, a drainage solution, or a beautiful decorative pond, Harley & Son builds them all to last.
