Water Feature - Install a Fountain or Waterfall

Serving Saint Bernard, LA and surrounding areas

In business since 2006

"

Perry came in and framed and built support for a waterfall I had installed on my pond.

After terracing the ground, poured a cement foundation and then mounted the rocks. Plumbing was added to bring the exhaust water from my water cooled heat pump to the waterfall. Now when the A/C runs, exhaust water flows over the waterfall and into my pond.

We have a hilled Garden, and he built the steps to the upper level allowing access to a bench where solitude and viewing may be had.

Fountains questions, answered by experts

Consider the pros and cons of installing a water fountain in your backyard:

Pros

  • Fountains can add beauty to your backyard.

  • Creates a relaxing space to enjoy in your yard. 

  • Water features can add more value to your home.

Cons

  • Regular maintenance is necessary.

  • Upfront and maintenance costs can escalate quickly.

  • Space may not permit you to install the fountain you want.

DIY kits exist, but professional installation ensures proper filtration, landscaping, and leak-proof construction.

When deciding whether or not to turn off your pump, you should consider your area’s climate and the aquatic life in your pond. If you live in an area with freezing winter temperatures and don’t have any wildlife, keeping your pump on could damage it. If you have aquatic life but live in a colder climate, you might consider keeping your pump running and adding a pond heater.

While they’re popular and have a lot of pros, the cons of river rocks include the following:

  • River rocks don’t break down or provide nutrients to plants. 

  • These stones can get hot and scorch nearby plants. 

  • River stones may heat the surrounding soil to inhospitable temperatures. 

  • Rocks can block rainwater from seeping into the ground if installations are too thick or tightly packed.

Most downsides occur when using river rock as mulch in gardens and flower beds. However, you can still incorporate river rocks into your landscape as long as you use them in the correct ways.

Yes, it is possible to make a fountain without a pump, though it may seem less intuitive and will require a bit more effort to use. In lieu of an electric pump, there are a few options including hand-cranked pumps or sprinkler systems that can work to provide water for a fountain.
