Design and layout
Every pond starts with a conversation and a walk through the yard. We discuss size, style, sun and the view, then mark the shape on the ground with paint or a hose so you can see it.
Locating and digging
Before digging, 811 is called and underground lines are marked. We cut the pond with shelves and a stable slope, shape the waterfall base and set aside soil for berms and fill.
Underlayment and liner
A smooth, clean base protects the liner. Underlayment goes down first, then the liner, which is folded carefully and lapped up behind the waterfall and edge.
Plumbing and filtration
The skimmer, pump, filter and return lines are set. Valves and unions go where they can be reached. Electrical connections are made by a qualified electrician.
Stone and plants
Boulders and gravel go in, edges are dressed and plants are set at the right depths. This is the part that makes the pond look natural.
Startup
The pond is filled, treated and tested. We tune the flow, explain the controls and leave you with a care guide. Fish are added after the water is ready.
Good planning, a protected liner and careful plumbing matter more than any single decoration.
