I've been in the trades since I was 15, looking for opportunities to grow my buisness after moving to a new area recently. We generally are a group of full time contractors, engineers and project managers that like to get our hands dirty. We work fast, do everything in house, work flexible hours and pride ourselves on affordable pricing.
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Emerald Bay Design and Construction for a major renovation project, and I couldn't be more impressed with the craftsmanship. From start to finish, they demonstrated a deep understanding of design and construction techniques, delivering outstanding results that exceeded my expectations. Richard took the time to understand my vision and translated it into a beautifully crafted reality. Communication was clear and timely throughout the process and I received my bid back quickly and accurately. Overall, I would highly recommend Emerald Bay Design and Construction to anyone looking for a design and construction company. I am thrilled with the results of my project and look forward to working with them again in the future."

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.
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
You can choose several types of fountains to add to your backyard, ranging in size, number of basins, and special water features.

Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
