Hello! My name is Mark Cooper, owner of White Dove Masonry Group, a family owned and operated masonry business. My family has been doing masonry work for 4 generations, which has given me over 40 years of experience. What that means for you is we truly are your local concrete & masonry specialists. \nHaving grown up in the industry, first and foremost, I take great pride in the quality of our work. We put our heart into every project we do, as I feel that my family reputation is at stake on each and every job. Everything we do, we do with pride. You will appreciate our quality of work and the level of customer service we bring to the table. Our competitive pricing means that we may not be the least expensive person you can talk to, and you could pay less but is it really worth the risk? I can still go back to jobs I did 20 years ago and be proud of the fact that it is still standing as strong and as beautiful as the day I installed it. When quality work matters to you give us a call!

FAQs for fountain service projects in Bennington, VT

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.
