Water Features — built right.
Water features add the one element a landscape can't simulate — sound, movement, reflection. We design tiered fountains, pondless streams, bubbling boulder features, and full ponds depending on the property. Every water feature integrates electrical, plumbing, and overflow drainage into the surrounding landscape, not bolted on after.
Local conditions.
Hill Country water features lean into limestone, native boulder, and dry-stack stone. Pondless streams using native plants (sedges, irises, native ferns) read as continuous with the rest of the property. Tiered iron fountains anchor courtyard spaces.
How we build it.
- Design phase — feature type, sound profile, scale, sightlines from the home.
- Excavation and basin/reservoir installation.
- Plumbing: pump sized to feature, recirculating loop, fill valve to mains if desired.
- Electrical: licensed rough-in for pump and lighting.
- Stonework: dry-stack or set boulders, native boulder placement, stream beds with river rock.
- Planting integration: native sedges, irises, ferns, moisture-loving species around the edge.
- Lighting: low-voltage underwater and accent lighting integrated at install.
