"They replaced the liner and stones in our large fountain in the driveway. They worked very hard all day and it looks beautiful! They also pruned all of the bushes around the fountain. They were all helpful and polite and just wonderful to work with. We will be using them again in the future for landscaping needs."

"Marc was very professional and did an excellent job in re-doing my front and side yard with topsoil and mulch as well as trimming my trees. He also provided excellent pricing as well as thorough clean-up at the end of the job. I will only contact Unique Landscape Construction for any future work that needs to be complete."

FAQs for fountain service projects in Ray, MI

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.
