Q: How deep do you need to build a pond?

• <div><p>One of the most important parts of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-build-pond.htm">building a pond</a> is digging the right depth. Your pond needs to be at least one to two feet deep. The specifics of the depth will depend on factors such as the placement of the pond and whether you plan on having fish. If you have fish in your pond, it will need to be at least two feet deep.</p></div>

Q: What are some creative ideas for repurposing the area where the pool was?

• <div><p>After you fill in your pool, you can add trees and plants that help stabilize the soil. You might decide not to fill it in at all and find another use for the sunken area instead. A few ideas include creating a seating area or garden inside the empty pool. Depending on its size, you could create a place to roller-skate or install basketball hoops for an unconventional court. </p></div>

Q: How many fish can live in my pond?

• <div><p>How many fish can call your pond home depends on the volume of the pond and the fish size. Your pond's filtration system also influences the number of fish that will thrive in a pond. A general rule of thumb is to have 1 inch of fish for every square foot in a pond that's 2 feet deep. Another rule of thumb you can follow is to have one koi fish for every 200 gallons of water or two goldfish for every 200 gallons. </p></div>

Q: What’s the easiest water feature to maintain?

• <div><p>Smaller, pondless water features like bird baths, self-contained fountains, and bubbling rocks are much lower maintenance than their counterparts that include ponds. Pondless features help you avoid high <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pond-maintenance-cost.htm">pond maintenance costs</a> and allow you to spend more time enjoying the water feature and less time on upkeep.</p></div>

Q: Are waterfall edges still in style?

• <div><p>Yes, waterfall edges are still in style and even considered a kitchen classic. At one time, they were considered trendy, but now homeowners appreciate them for their timeless appeal, which adds value to your home.</p></div>

Phenomenal! The owner, Cornell Fields, and his crew work with efficiency and integrity. They respect your property -- laying paper on the floor to protect it. They listen attentively. When you call you are not explaining to a receptionist who is not a plumber the problem. You get the man who knows. They carry on the truck most of what is needed unlike my experience with another plumbing company I used that had an A rating here on the list as well as with the BBB. Never again. That company sucks! I had them turn on the water the day before. That's all they did except for pointing out the leaks. $219 later for 90 minutes of "work" when they were there for only 75 and stated it included a $30 discount (it did not when I did the math) as they knowingly left with a spray fountain leak from the kitchen faucet and dripping pipes at all the sinks! What a mess. Field's is my plumber of choice from here on out....hands down. This job took 11.5 hours one day and a finish up of 4 the next. Two men 3/4 of the time. No lolly gagging or time wasting by either of them. This was a big job in that the water had been turned off by the owner for 9 years. Much inspection needed to make sure everything worked properly without leaks. I am thoroughly pleased. They warrantee the work. Top notch company. They do charge for estimates, but once a relationship is establish (they do work for you) that no longer applies...

"We are still in the installation process, but the workers are hard working knowledgeable, approachable and friendly. Jennifer is one of the owners and her honest, upfront and knowledge about ponds and what it would require to install my pond, especially since I had a big hole from a previous attempt (By a family member) is why I chose Backyard Ponds. Jennifer gave me a fair and reasonable price within my budget. She also sat down with me and has educated me on how best to keep my pond eco-friendly and low maintenance. I know that I am going to love there work once the pond is completed. I would highly recommend this company. They do quality work at a reasonable price."
