Detention pond construction and maintenance, subsurface stormwater controls and pond water-quality management across Central Texas.

Spicewood is spread out, rocky and draining toward the Pedernales and Lake Travis. Commercial property out here means large lots, long private drives, event and lodging venues, plus a few business parks, with drainage that is mostly culverts, rock channels and open basins. Flow builds up fast on these grades, and a plugged culvert at a crossing becomes everybody's problem the next time a storm sits over the area.
Our work here starts at the crossings and culverts. We dig out the inlets, clear the debris collecting on the upstream side, and repair washed shoulders and aprons. Channels get reset where rock has moved, and basins get mowed, brush cleared and cleaned to depth. Cedar growing in a channel or on a slope comes out, since it catches everything that floats and makes the next blockage worse than the last one.
Owners and managers around Spicewood generally want a contractor who will actually drive out, and then keep driving out. We schedule a few visits a year and respond after storms. Tell us which crossing or basin worries you most and we will start there and work outward. Call (737) 404-9343 for a free on-site assessment.

We also provide ponds & stormwater in these nearby communities:
Yes. Corral Bros is a pond and stormwater contractor serving Central Texas, we build detention and retention ponds, maintain them, install and service subsurface stormwater control measures (SCMs), and manage pond water quality. Most of this work is for commercial properties, HOAs, developments and municipalities along the Austin–San Antonio corridor.
Detention pond maintenance keeps a basin working and inspection-ready: sediment and silt removal, mowing and vegetation control, clearing inlets, outlets and outfall structures, repairing erosion, and regrading as needed. We can also provide inspection documentation to support regulatory compliance.
Yes. Rural and large-lot properties out here are part of our regular route, and we group nearby stops to keep trips efficient. Distance does not change the schedule we can hold.
Yes, and it is worth doing on a schedule rather than after a problem. We clear the inlet and the upstream side, remove the brush producing the debris, and repair the approach where water has undercut it. A crossing that holds material backs water up onto the drive.
We do, and we schedule around bookings. Those properties often have gravel drives, parking fields and septic areas that all interact with drainage, so keeping swales and culverts open protects more than just the pond.
Resetting stone that flow has displaced, replacing undersized material at the points that keep failing, repairing the bedding underneath, and clearing the vegetation and debris that cause flow to jump the channel. If the same section fails every year, the channel may need a design review rather than another repair.
If it was required by an approved drainage plan, the owner is generally responsible for keeping it functioning, and it can be inspected. Rural location does not remove that. The approved plan for your site is the document that tells you what is required.
