Waterfall & Pond Design & Installation
Transform Your Property with Serene Water Features
There is an innate human attraction to water. It soothes, fascinates, and brings a unique sense of life to any setting. A professionally designed and installed water feature is more than just an addition to your garden; it’s an immersive experience that engages the senses. From the first moment you step outside, the gentle cascade of a waterfall or the peaceful stillness of a pond can lower stress and create a private sanctuary for you and your family. We are dedicated to crafting these dynamic ecosystems, turning your vision of a backyard paradise into a beautiful, living reality.
Custom Water Feature Design & Installation
Every landscape presents a unique canvas. We believe that a water feature should feel as though it has always been a part of your property. Our design and installation process is a thoughtful collaboration, ensuring the final creation perfectly complements your home’s style and the natural contours of your land.
Our expertise covers a wide range of custom water features, including:
Ecosystem Ponds: Far more than just a hole with water, we design balanced aquatic ecosystems. These ponds include biological filtration, aquatic plants, fish, and beneficial bacteria, all working together to keep the water clean and clear with minimal intervention. We can tailor the size and shape to your desires, from a small, intimate garden pond to a larger one capable of supporting vibrant koi.
Pondless® Waterfalls: For those who desire the sights and sounds of a waterfall without the open water of a pond, a Pondless® Waterfall is the perfect solution. This feature consists of a re-circulating waterfall that cascades over rocks and disappears into a hidden underground reservoir. It's an ideal choice for properties where safety with children or pets is a concern, or for smaller spaces where a full pond isn't feasible.
Cascading Streams: We can create natural-looking streams that meander through your garden, connecting waterfalls to ponds or simply providing a gentle, babbling presence. The careful placement of rocks, gravel, and bends in the stream's path mimics nature's own handiwork.
Our installation process is meticulous. We handle every detail, from initial excavation and the placement of high-quality liners to the installation of energy-efficient pumps and sophisticated, low-maintenance filtration systems. We artfully arrange boulders, rocks, and gravel to create a completely natural look, finishing the space with carefully selected aquatic plants that will thrive in our Oneonta, New York climate.
Professional Repair and Maintenance Services
A water feature is a living system that, like any part of your landscape, requires care to remain healthy and beautiful. To protect your investment and ensure its longevity, we offer comprehensive, professional repair and maintenance services. Our knowledge of the local climate and its effects on water features is critical for their year-round success.
Our services include:
Leak Detection and Repair: Locating and fixing a leak can be a challenging task. Our expert team has the tools and experience to efficiently find and repair leaks in liners and plumbing, restoring your water feature's integrity.
Pump and Filtration Service: The pump is the heart of your water feature. We can repair or replace malfunctioning pumps and service filtration systems to ensure they are working at peak efficiency, keeping your water clear and healthy.
Algae Control and Water Quality Management: We can diagnose and treat water quality issues, including excessive algae growth, to restore balance to your pond's ecosystem naturally and effectively.
Seasonal Care: In Central New York, preparing your water feature for the changing seasons is vital. We provide spring opening services to de-winterize your pond and get it running beautifully, as well as fall shutdown and winterization services to protect your plumbing, fish, and plants from the harsh winter cold.
By entrusting us with the care of your water feature, you can enjoy a hassle-free ownership experience, allowing you to simply relax and appreciate the serene beauty it brings to your property.
