"These guys were great. Quickly got my foundation excavated and wrapped to keep water out at a very reasonable price compared to other quote and retired contractors or landscapers I've spoken with. I'll certainly be contacting them for all future landscaping needs."

"The Greenerside was the 4th lanscape company I got a cost from to put in a new lawn, plant nursery stock and spread mulch. I appreciated the extra effort on Jennifer's part to share her landscaping ideas with color photos of how my yard and home could look. They were extremely flexible in the materials I was able supply and the service they would provide. They were also able to accomodate my tight time frame. Their work was very professional and personable. I am pleased in all respects, and will call on them again in the future."

FAQs for fountain service projects in Kankakee, IL

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.
