We are so pleased we chose Michael Wheat Swim ponds. The service from first site visit to installation has been exceptional. When we received the concept video we were blown away and I never expected the final product to live up to the video. Installation has taken just 4 weeks, the team, led by Gavin, were so professional and involved us in the process all the time. Our dogs absolutely loved them especially Joel!!!
The service doesn’t stop here, with several site visits planned to make sure everything is up and running as it should be.
If you are looking for a swimpond look no further, you won’t regret it.
Happy swimming 🏊🏊

Why choose Ponds by Michael Wheat?
It’s our expert pond, pool and plant knowledge that sets us apart.
Proven track record, tried and tested results
Established 2010 we soon became the best pond designers and pond installers in the UK.
Experts in creating fish-friendly environments, specifically koi ponds.
Koi thrive in clean water, so we focused on pond designs and fish ponds that featured wildlife pond plants, chemical-free, biological filtration systems, and UV technology to keep the water naturally fresh. This created an eco-pool-style wildlife pond habitat which saves money on maintenance, as well as saving the environment.
It was soon clear that by creating the perfect environment for nature’s most discerning fish, we’d developed the best natural swimming pond formula too.
The SAFEST swimming ponds…
Don’t believe us? What about a biochemist and microbiologist? Caroline said the following during her Pondcast with Michael Wheat.
“Yes absolutely, the combination of elements all solves (Michael Wheat System) a scientific issue. If you just had one of the parts of that system, my feeling is it wouldn’t work. I remember doing my research on swimponds, it took me 4 or 5 years before I had made up the decision to have the pond installed.
I was just not convinced that just the aquatic plants would be enough. I think that’s why we have been on this journey for a number of years because YOU are only now at the point with your system where EACH part of your set up addresses the scientific problem of safe water.”
Fast forward to today.
Following enhancements to our garden pond design process and successful completion of numerous easy-maintenance, natural swimming ponds, our acquired knowledge enables us to design and build the best chlorine FREE swimming ponds, whilst our expertise avoids costly mistakes.
We continue to be leading pond builders completing pond installations and freshwater swimming pool installations throughout the UK. You can view our Award winning swimming pond in the YouTube video.
We build koi ponds, fish ponds and wildlife ponds, right up to stunning natural swimming ponds, so you can enjoy the exhilaration of freshwater swimming all year round.
Your pond or pool project will be designed and installed with minimal fuss, to bring you hours of delight.

Why invest in the best natural pond or best natural pool?
Avoid hassle and disappointment.
It’s tempting to try to save money by taking pond or pool building on as a project or contracting it out to local builders.
Builders are great, at bricks and mortar, but not at designing a natural, finely balanced ecosystem in your garden. Their knowledge won’t extend to pond technology, plants or which are the best pumps, filters, and pond liners to use.
Partner with an expert natural pond designer and installer.
You can avoid potential problems, such as:
- An unsightly, unfinished garden project
- A missed opportunity to add more value to your property
- Waiting months or years to improve your lifestyle
- Skin conditions caused by cleaning chemicals
- Stinging eyes and chlorine smell whilst swimming
- Missing out on spending time with your family
