Our Story at Backyard Depot

At Backyard Depot, our story starts in 2003. When we first opened, we were both a pond construction company and a pond retailer in a small Oklahoma town.


In 2009, Keith Smith bought the business and quickly fell in love with the process of building ponds. Driven by passion and dedication, he saw a growth opportunity in the pond industry and a chance to bring hope to people’s lives with his work. As the company started to grow, Keith decided to sell the retail part and move the business to Tulsa, OK.


For Keith, it’s not just about creating a nice spot in the backyard. It’s about finding a place where you can recharge and reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. At Backyard Depot, we design every water feature from scratch for a unique finish that will enrich your life and make your home stand out.

When Passion Comes First

Keith and his team are the ones you can rely on when it comes to building the ultimate water feature. Their love for enhancing landscapes has helped them bring new water features to countless homes in northeastern Oklahoma.


Regardless of the complexity of your pond or water feature, they’ll approach it with the same dedication and mastery. They’ll make sure to bring it to life promptly so you can enjoy a water feature that’s built to last. Call or text the BD team today to see how a water feature can change your life!
