"My pond was already existing but had been neglected for a few years and it needed a major cleaning. Walter and his team came in very professionally and drained the whole thing, kept fish safe, cleaned all the rocks, changed my pump, rebuilt the waterfall and other fallen rocks at edge, and pruned a ton. There was a huge water plant that had gotten out of control, the root structure stretched over 75% the pond, but Walter was able to remove it carefully without damaging liner. It was a big job and he and his team handled it all flawlessly. I was impressed and pond was beautiful again. Good advice for maintenance was given. I’ll definitely use this company again. Picture 1 was taken 6 months after cleaning. Can’t tell in this photo but can still see clear to bottom. Picture 2 was taken just BEFORE cleaning."

"CM Landscaping was excellent from start to finish of our project. We had a lawn put in our front and back yard with full sprinklers and landscaping done in the backyard. Fernando was amazing to work with. He made great suggestions for our yard and was courteous and professional. The work was done on schedule and looks great. CM provided exceptional service at a great price. Fernando scheduled a follow up to make sure the grass is taking and has been responsive to all questions. I would not hesitate to work with him again and I very highly recommend him and his company. This is exactly the kind of business we should all support."

"It went great, they got right back to me. I live in Maryland and my 86 year old father in California needed somebody to take care of his yard and they came out right away. I would highly recommend this company. My dad said his yard looks great. Thanks so much"

"Nick responded within a couple hours to my phone message.  I had two toilets that needed the insides replaced and one that needed the tank bolts replaced as well.  He came the next morning, checked things out and also suggested that I replace the water valve due to its age.  He purchased everything that was needed to service both toilets, as I checked out how to turn the water off.  In less than two hours he had the parts purchased and everything installed. He is pleasant and very helpful. I'll definitely use his services again!"

"It went great.  Pete is extremely nice and personable.  The job is first rate and professional.  There was no garbage or debris to cleanup afterwards from the work.  He gave me exactly what I asked for, followed up with instructions on how to take care of it and he provides a follow-up in one month.  I have already recommended him to a co-worker.  He even repaired a porch heater that had gotten knocked down in the wind.
I should also had I am very pleased with how the garden looks and the chosen plants.

FAQs for fountain service projects in Mill Valley, CA

Installing an outdoor water fountain costs $2,700 on average, not including the cost of the unit. Prices range from $150 to $10,650, depending on your location, the type of fountain, size, and accessibility to the site. Self-contained fountains and water features recirculate the water within the unit. Depending on size and features like multi-tiered cascading bowls, they typically cost from $50 to $5,000. More elaborate fountains with waterfalls and ponds can cost from $450 to $10,000 or more.

Every one to three months, you should perform regular fountain maintenance, including draining, cleaning, and rinsing the components of your fountain basin and the pump and tubing to prevent algae and other buildup. Fountain maintenance also includes keeping the appropriate water level and removing debris like leaves, insects, and twigs from the water to avoid clogging the pump. You can also hire a professional landscaper to clean your fountain for around $50 to $150 per month on average.

Most water features do not use a lot of electricity, averaging between 100 and 250 watts per day. The size of the motor can impact electricity usage. To reduce electricity usage, consider using a timer to turn the fountain off at night and when you’re away from your home. Solar power is another way to defray electricity costs after you recoup the cost of installing the solar components.

You can choose several types of fountains to add to your backyard, ranging in size, number of basins, and special water features. 

Check out the price ranges of common fountain types:

  • Birdbath fountains: $40 to $1,100

  • Cascading fountains: $40 to $2,000

  • Tiered fountains: $100 to $6,000

  • Kugel fountains: $150 to $5,000

  • Glass wall fountains: $100 to $3,000
