The reason this went so well was behind the effort of these guys, due to the circumstances this was an extremely manual labor wall repair and they had 5 guys working in unison.

Plant Watering questions, answered by experts

Installing a prefabricated water fountain can take as little as a few hours, and custom fountains can take as long as several days to install. The installation timeline will depend on how much preparation the installation site needs, the complexity of the fountain, and whether you choose to install it yourself or hire a pro.

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.

Costs depend on design, materials, plumbing, labor, and optional lighting or filtration features.

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 pond maintenance costs and allow you to spend more time enjoying the water feature and less time on upkeep.

Water features enhance aesthetics, improve outdoor ambiance, and provide a soothing, tranquil atmosphere.
