Important Information Before We Begin Your Weed Removal

Before you clear your weeds, you need to understand which regulations require permits—and the process can feel like a little daunting. With our permit support, you get guidance on approvals, from a team that makes your shoreline project easier from day one. Much of Ontario does not require a permit, but if you are looking for aquatic weed removal service in either of the two locations below, you will require a permit before we can service it.

Permit Applications

Step-By-Step Help To Get Your Project Approved

If you’re planning work along the Trent-Severn Waterway or the Rideau Canal, these are the two most common permits you’ll need to get started. Both locations require you to apply for an In-Water and Shoreline Work Permit through Parks Canada for the Trent-Severn Waterway or Rideau Canal.

“It is always a pleasure to engage with the team.”

The enhancement to our pond and our enjoyment of it is the result of the expertise and care the knowledgeable team of Weeds B Gone technicians brought to our  ponds. Follow-up care is immediate and effective. It is always a pleasure to engage with the team as we always learn something new about caring for our ponds and aeration. We especially enjoy the quiet nature of the equipment. Thanks to everyone at Weeds B Gone.

“Amazing company and friendly staff!”

Amazing company and friendly staff! Really helpful at explaining all the solutions to get rid of the weeds at our lake! The services were above and beyond! I highly recommend their services! We can finally swim at our lake without worrying about the pesky weeds!

“The outcome was worth the investment.”

Very skeptical at first. The crew came out and did exactly what they promised. They did not damage the lawn or the surroundings of the pond. Cleaned up all the mess that was made during the removal of the weeds from our pond. The pond was transformed in one day and continued to get better all summer. We noticed the return of more aquatic life and increased activity in and around the pond. The outcome was worth the investment. Highly recommend Weed B Gone. Super happy with the results.

“Excellent product and customer service.”

Excellent product and customer service. We’ve been using the oscillating muck blaster for 2 years now and the difference it has made in eliminating weeds at our waterfront is remarkable.

“The outcome was worth the investment.”

Their products have made a huge difference in our enjoyment of our waterfront. We no longer need a weed mat to swim off our main dock and the area in front of our home is free of floating weeds. The service from Nick and Julie has been an added bonus.

“Love the screening kit!”

Love the screening kit! Very easy to set up and works GREAT! No weeds all summer long and easy on the feet. Was also easy to take out and give a quick clean with power washer so its ready for next year. We bought a lake mat from the states and it was a real pain. Never again. Thank you Nick and Joe!

“Fabulous job at Preston Lake!”

Fabulous job at Preston Lake, major improvements to the excessively weedy condition. Worked incredible hard and long to resolve our issues. This is just the beginning. Great team, easy to communicate with. Trying to educate us and resolve our weed problem. Appreciate it Nick!

“We couldn’t be more thrilled with the result and service from Weeds B Gone!”

We had perpetual issues with algae and odour in our pond despite using copious treatments and aerating windmill. Weeds B Gone installed a 5-bubbler system and in just over one season the pond was clear and odour free. Our kids and their friends love swimming in it once again. We couldn’t be more thrilled with the result and service from Weeds B Gone!
