"We hired Natures Edge to install a brand new koi pond with fish. We are very pleased with how it turned out. We are thinking of adding some other water features through them soon!"
"If you are looking for a solid construction company sonart is the way to go for sure! All I could say was wow aside from the fact that my mouth was completely open for a solid five minutes LOL! The house was built around the 50s and hasnâ t been updated since the original build. To see our bathrooms brought more to a modern the lights was honestly heartwarming I know my mother would have appreciated this!Thank you again guys for your hard work!"
"Mike Mitchell did a great job talking us through the project and making some great recommendations about both the initial job and some other landscaping improvements we’d been thinking about. The work was completed quickly and professionally. The team led by Cesar did a great job!"
"Everything went exceeding well! Mike Greathouse of GreatWater Irrigation and Ecoscapes carefully inspected my sprinkler system and then expertly repaired two broken sprinklers. I found Mike to be knowledgeable and personable. His charges for services performed were fair and reasonable. The next time my sprinkler system needs repairs, I will definitely call Greatwater Irrigation and Echoscopes. I highly recommend them to any Angie List member needing to have their sprinkler system inspected and/or repaired."
"The crew was a bit sloppy when Joe wasn't around, but he had them return to re-do a few places and clean off areas where the concrete/mortar should not have been placed. There wasn't anything than couldn't be fixed."
"They did a very good job. He came out and we told him what to do. He put together a graphic design on his computer and showed us the actual porch and how it looked. We rearranged the design while he was here. He used his computer to work all of this out and it was a good experience."
"Everything Greta and her team took on with my particular landscape project was beautifully executed...Excellent communication...Explained every single idea / design decision and provided detailed information on each individual plant that was selected. Again, execution was spot-on and swift. Highly recommend!"
In short, yes, a pond can add to your home’s value. However, whether it adds value will depend on the condition and aesthetic of your pond. Having this feature already built into a yard’s home can be appealing to homebuyers who value its aesthetic and would prefer not to build it themselves. But if it is not kept in good condition, it could turn buyers away.
Yes, it is possible to make a fountain without a pump, though it may seem less intuitive and will require a bit more effort to use. In lieu of an electric pump, there are a few options including hand-cranked pumps or sprinkler systems that can work to provide water for a fountain.
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.
Like pools, ponds can be a safety risk, so they may increase your homeowners insurance. Be sure to let your insurance company know if you build a pond on your property—they may have safety requirements in order to keep your premium from increasing.
Seeps and springs form when groundwater reaches the earth’s surface. The main differences between them are the amount of water and the flow rate. Seeps are smaller than springs and consist of water that’s stagnant or flows slowly. Springs contain more water and flow more quickly.
