about-company

ABOUT US

Lake Maintenance Service was founded in 1982 by Ralph and RhoAnne Moody in response to the growing demand for a company that specialized in the care and environmental maintenance of the large, artificial bodies of water being built in the Phoenix metro area. Ralph is a Marine Biologist with a degree in Biochemistry from the University of Utah. He used this expertise to maintain hundreds of valley projects for over 30 years until his retirement in 2013.

His son, Bryan Moody, is now the President and General Manager. He has been involved with LMS since he could handle a pole and net and is now the Qualifying Party for our business license with the Department of Agriculture. He holds licenses in aquatics and industrial/institutional pest management.

RhoAnne Moody and MaryAnne Karstadt are the backbone of the company and work with our clients closely to make sure that every need is met and satisfaction with our service is complete. We pride ourselves in our office staff and the value they add to the company.

Don Heinlein and Corey O’Rourke are invaluable assets in the field. As technicians they make sure everyday that all of our client’s properties look their best. If your project needs special care, maintenance, or repair, we get the job done!

SERVICES

General Maintenance

Regular maintenance is the key to preventing ecological disasters such as overbearing algal bloom, pond weeds, and excess amounts of Nitrates, Phosphates, Ammonia, and other irritations.

Chemical Application

When necessary, certain aquatic pesticides can be applied to help maintain healthy algae levels without disrupting the habitat for fish, beneficial plant life, and waterfowl.

Pump System Installation, Maintenance, and Repair

Pumps are used in many different ways for man-made water features. Whether you need to circulate, aerate, filter, or just pump your water, we can do the job.

Fish Stocking

Regularly stocking fish is a natural way to prevent excessive growth of algae, pond weeds, and pests such as midge flies and mosquitoes. Catch-and-Release Fishing can also be a fun pastime for residents of a community.

Aeration - Installation and Maintenance

Aeration enhances fish habitats, improves water quality, reduces algae, and even removes removing phosphorus. Aeration also breaks down unwanted bacteria, helps with mosquito problems, and remove foul odors from large water features. This is accomplished through circulation and by adding dissolved Oxygen.
