Detention pond construction and maintenance, subsurface stormwater controls and pond water-quality management across Central Texas.
Wimberley knows what fast water looks like. The Blanco can come up in a hurry, and the ground around it is shallow soil over rock that sheds rain instead of soaking it in. Commercial property here is smaller and often sloped, tucked along the ranch roads, with channels and basins cut into rock that are expected to handle a great deal of water in a very short window.
The work is mostly keeping flow paths open and slopes intact. We clear culverts and channel inlets of gravel, limbs and cedar, rebuild washed sections of swale with material that will stay put, and cut back the brush that chokes a channel and catches debris. Basins get mowed and cleaned out, with coarse rock and sediment hauled off rather than pushed to the side where the next storm moves it again.
Lodging properties, offices, event venues and small retail around Wimberley do best with maintenance before the wet season and a call for storm response when something plugs up. We are set up for narrow access and rough ground, so we can usually get to the spot that needs attention. If you are not sure your drainage is in shape, we will walk it.

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. Narrow drives, gates and steep approaches are normal out here, so we match equipment to the site and do hand work where a machine would do damage. Tell us the tightest point on the property and we will tell you honestly whether we can get past it.
Open everything that carries water. That means digging out culvert inlets, clearing channel blockages, checking the outlet and trash rack on any basin, and cutting the brush that will become the next debris jam. An hour of clearing beforehand prevents most of the damage we get called about after.
We rebuild the grade so flow spreads out again instead of concentrating, then stabilize the surface with the right material for the slope, which on this ground often means rock rather than turf alone. If the same spot keeps failing, the swale may be undersized or too steep, and that is worth an engineer's look.
Yes. Coarse material is what we see most on the west side of the county, and it needs different equipment than fine silt. It also has to leave the property, since a pile of gravel next to the channel is simply waiting for the next storm.
That depends on what the site's approved drainage plan required when it was permitted. Many small sites in Hays County do have detention or water quality requirements, and the plan is the document that tells you. If there is a basin on your property, somebody is responsible for keeping it functioning, and that is almost always the owner.
