"Tyler and Derrick did a beautiful job with installing our pond. We especially appreciated Tyler’s design sensibility when her artfully arranged rocks to form a waterfall and along the front of the pond. He also advised us on aquatic plants and fish that were suitable for our pond. They worked efficiently and took care to reduce the impact of installation on surrounding plants. The cost for the work was fair and reasonable."
"Brian and Marcus were wonderful to work with. They installed two beautiful flagstone patios along with a pond and stream. They hit the nail on the head with everything. The pond, stream and waterfall exceeded my expectations. I am so happy I was able to work with them and will enjoy their creations for years to come. Thank you!"
"Justin and his crew were extremely hard working, professional. They are great communicators and flexible to what your project needs. On top of all of that, great attitudes and seem to make work fun! definitely recommend them for your next landscaping project!"
"I was so appreciative of their willingness to help me create! They have an eye for detail. We started from scratch with a blank canvas of a backyard, and we made a beautiful patio and dog park for my dogs. I had ideas of things I wanted but Ross very kindly let me know how his way would be better...you know, because professionals understand that retaining walls help hold earth together and my idea would have caused a mud slide...YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!"
"I asked sprinkler repair during memorial weekend afternoon(it’s busy season of the year as you know). Jonathan came and got the job done in a couple hours! It’s pretty impressive service quality and speed. The experience with Landscaping & Curbing is 10 out of 10 all around. I definitely refer him to my neighbor."
"Amazing work!!! They came on time, did everything perfectly, were very pleasant, and went above and beyond what I expected. The yard looks beautiful! I feel so lucky to have found them!"
"I was very satisfied with the work done by Scenic Creations. His work was excellent and the end product looks wonderful. I would definitely recommend him."
You can use the outdoor spigot to do many things like cleaning patio furniture, washing down driveways, or watering plants. You can also attach outdoor hoses and some sprinkler systems to your spigot, making it much easier to keep your grass and plants watered. When connecting a hose or sprinkler system to your outdoor spigot, pay close attention to the manufacturer’s instructions, as they can ensure a snug fit with no leaks.
Regularly clean pumps, remove debris, and monitor water levels to prevent algae growth and clogging.
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.
Even if you empty your pond before the winter, there’s a good chance it will refill naturally. It’s ideal in most cases, then, to leave water in your pond and winterize it instead. This method will prevent ice damage and protect wildlife. Plus, it’ll lessen the steps required to reopen your pond in the spring.
Pond installation costs typically range from $1,500 to $10,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the pond's size, the materials used, excavation requirements, and any additional features such as waterfalls, lighting, or specialized habitats for fish like koi.
