"On June 7th 2015 I made the initial call to Canyon Springs to inquire about having a new landscaping design created for my front yard.  This was a Sunday and I was blown away that Ryan was willing to come out and assist me with a free onsite consultation within hours of my call.  He stated that he would get right to work on creating and designing using 3D imaging software which I was very excited about.  My brother had refereed me to Canyon Springs  based on there design capabilities and when Ryan met back up with me a week late with the design her truly exceeded my expectations.  A few days later Ryan and his team got started installing my design and approximately 2 weeks later the design was completed.  I am very pleased with the finished product and since then have had hired Canyon Springs for snow removal this year.  They are always prompt, professional and I recommend there services to all my friends and family.

"He was great to work with -- he came when he said he would, he answered questions promptly and courteously, and his team was superb -- very professional! They were willing to be flexible when we asked about installing a patio which was not in the original plan. Before we hired him, the owner, Rick Tillotson, came to our house to discuss what we wanted done in our yard.  We knew we wanted to replace the front walkway and to redesign the landscape in the front yard, but did not know how to proceed.  Rick had a vision for our front yard which we could never have imagined on our own. He was enthusiastic, had lots of good ideas, and ultimately cost about half of what another landscape designer quoted us. The work was done, as promised and on time -- even though we added on to the project as I mentioned.
 I would recommend Rick and Organics Lawn and Landscape without hesitation and in fact I already have.  Rick's work speaks for itself.  My yard was so wonderfully transformed that I literally had people stop to ask me who did the work.  One of my neighbors was so impressed with how great my yard looked after Rick's work was done that she hired him to do a complicated landscape design and installation. She is as thrilled with the results as I am with mine!

Fountains questions, answered by experts

Algae growth is a common issue for misters, but you can do several things to prevent it. First, use a sealed water tank with distilled or filtered water to fuel your misters. Second, blow out the misters after every use so no water is left in the tubing. Third, thoroughly clean the misting system every several weeks of use at minimum during the warmest months. Third, wherever possible positioning tubing and the water tank away from direct sunlight and in the coolest areas possible.

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

To maintain your pond, you’ll need to occasionally clean your backyard pond, especially if you have koi fish. Test the water twice a week to make sure your fish have everything they need and always remove visible debris.

Most outdoor water fountains and features do not use a lot of electricity, typically consuming between 100 and 250 watts per day. The size of the fountain's motor can impact its overall electricity usage. To reduce energy consumption, you can use a timer to automatically turn the fountain off at night or when you are away from home. Additionally, installing solar power components can help lower electricity costs after the initial investment is recouped.

Fountain maintenance is an important part of having a clean foundation in the first place. To keep your fountain water clean, you can use a water additive designed specifically to limit scale, algae, and other buildup in fountains. Or opt to use white vinegar as a pantry-ready water additive.
