About Oklahoma Ponds
Our story starts back in 1989 when our late grandfather, Joe Villemarette, aka Patio Joe, opened Patio Garden Ponds, the state’s first pond retail store. In 2003, the family retired from the brick and mortar retail store. Now, we serve the OKC metro area as the city’s premier pond contractor, Oklahoma Ponds.
Today, Jay Villemarette Jr. leads Oklahoma Ponds. He began his water gardening and koi career at just 15 years old when Patio Joe gave him his first job working in the nursery and helping customers with their pond questions. The knowledge and experience Jay received as a teenager working with his grandfather was the beginning of a lifelong obsession with garden ponds and koi care. Jay is now a Master Certified Aquascape Contractor and his team is ready to build you your perfect pond!
Here's What Our Customers Say...
Oklahoma Pond do the koi Pond for me and Jay and Oklahoma Pond team is one of the best to work with they always on time
Jay and his crew were awesome, and really happy with how our 10’x15’ koi pond turned out. Jay is very responsive to any questions/concerns I had via text or phone. He also had a great attention detail, getting every boulder in the right spot, making sure the water fall was perfect, and slightly changing the design to better fit in the space in my yard. I definitely would recommend if you’re looking for a koi pond or waterfall feature.
When my family moved to Norman from out of state, we bought a house that had a homemade koi pond in the backyard. We didn’t know a thing about it, so we called Jay to come check it out. Though our pond had all kinds of weird old parts, Jay and his crew kept it working and clean. When it finally broke down beyond repair a few years later, we decided to have them build us a new one. What they did, needless to say, looks much butter than the original. Thanks guys!
Jay and his crew have cleaned my pond twice and have done a wonderful job. They are very knowledgeable about koi and ponds as well as lighting and plants. They are very personable and professional and I wouldn’t have anyone else help me with my pond again. Thanks, Jay!
I could-not imagine choosing another person to build our incredible koi pound here at Rusty Gables. Jay has a passion beyond any imagination he built just what a water feature would look like that was made by Mother Nature , if your not pleased with his work I’m not really sure what I could tell you. Jay is a hard working caring person I am proud we met and he build our water feature and koi pond with several falls with a flow rate of 14,000 gallons and hours. I would recommend him to anybody . Feel free any time to take a look at our feature. Donald E. Paul & Sam Nicolosi Owners of Rusty Gables B&B Oklahoma City .
Great experience! I highly recommend this company. My koi pond has never looked this good. Kyle was very professional, knowledgeable and was very gentle while handling the koi.
I highly recommend Oklahoma Pond. Jay showed up right on time and worked diligently through the day to completely drain, clean, and restore our koi pond. His knowledge and willingness to share it with two new koi pond owners was just amazing. He care for our fish during the process was incredible, making sure they were stressed as little as possible while being displaced. He also removed many unwanted gold fish that had been added to the pond by the previous owners. What a terrific experience. You just can't go wrong with Oklahoma Ponds.
Awesome service. Great attitude. They will get my repeat service. Jay is the real deal when it comes to koi ponds.
