Detention pond construction and maintenance, subsurface stormwater controls and pond water-quality management across Central Texas.
West Lake Hills is steep, rocky and tight. Office and small retail sites here were fit into the terrain, and the drainage structures went wherever there was room, which is usually a spot you cannot back a truck up to. Water comes off these hillsides fast. A basin or water quality structure that has silted in has nowhere to send the overflow except a driveway or the street below it.
Access drives how we do the job. We use compact equipment, hand work where that is the only option, and vacuum trucks for structures a machine cannot reach. The work itself does not change: clean the bottom and forebay, clear the orifice and weir, cut and haul vegetation off the slopes, and repair erosion at inlets and outfalls with material that holds in rocky ground.
For owners and managers in West Lake Hills, the usual arrangement is a couple of maintenance visits a year with a look after major storms, scheduled so tenants are not blocked in. We will tell you honestly whether a structure needs cleaning or real repair, and we coordinate with your engineer when it is the latter. The assessment costs nothing. Call (737) 404-9343.
We walk your West Lake Hills property and assess the site.

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.
Usually yes. We use compact machines, long hose runs from a vacuum truck parked at the street, and hand crews where nothing else fits. Send a photo of the location and we will tell you what approach it takes before anybody drives out.
No. Small professional and retail sites are common here and a single structure or a small basin is normal work for us. Grouping a few nearby properties on the same day keeps it efficient, so if you manage more than one building, tell us.
If your drainage structure is not capturing and detaining what it was designed to, then yes, it typically becomes the owner's problem, and neighbors tend to notice first. The usual causes are a silted basin, a blocked inlet or an outlet that is restricted. All three are maintenance items.
We schedule around business hours where parking is tight, keep the staging area small, and clean up daily rather than at the end of the job. On most small sites the heavier work is a day or two, not a week.
Yes. Brush in a channel or on an embankment catches debris and creates blockages, and woody roots in a berm are a structural concern. We cut and haul it, then keep it down with a regular cycle so it does not come back as a clearing project.
