Plant Watering questions, answered by experts

If you are installing a fiberglass pool, you may want to install or update your patio or deck at the same time to create a safe, comfortable place to sit and dry off or grab a bite to eat after swimming. You might also consider adding a hot tub to the mix, which costs $6,000 on average.

Costs range from $1,500 to $15,000, depending on size, materials, labor, and customization.

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.

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.

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.
