Our bubbling fountains, which can even come in an urn style, create a soothing sound and feature your choice of either stone or marble materials. These fountains add the perfect accent among flowers and plants. Meanwhile, our jet fountains provide drama to your landscape.
For a finishing touch to your outdoor area, you can add submerged, floating or accent lights for a romantic glow. Adding a fountain to your home will complement the area while creating a soothing space to relax both day and night.
Infinity Waterfalls
Packages: Standard | Deluxe | Elite
Infinity waterfalls, also known as pondless waterfalls, are perfect for landscapes that have limited space for an entire pond. These low-maintenance water features recirculate the waterfall or stream. Due to its design, the water will not go above the rock and gravel fill. Without using a pond, these waterfalls appear to have a never-ending infinite waterfall.
Infinity waterfalls are ideal for those who don’t have a lot of time to maintain a pond. They are constructed by filling a deep hole with rock, gravel, and water. A pump at the bottom helps circulate the water. The water then goes through a pipe to a filter until it flows down the constructed waterfall and stream. The water finally falls into the reservoir where it once again begins its infinite cycle.
The infinity waterfalls are self-reliant. However, you do have the option of incorporating a full-sized pond into your design if you’d like to add one later.
Lifestyle Ponds

Best of all, ponds are low maintenance. That means you can enjoy an outdoor oasis without having to spend a great deal of time caring for frogs, fish or aquatic plants.
Ecology
To properly balance your pond, your technician will pay attention to the five elements of a healthy ecosystem which include:
- The filtration system – A biofilter will breakdown bacteria to be used as fertilization for your aquatic plants. The mechanical filter has your pump. It will skim the surface of the pond to keep it clear of debris and waste that can eventually sink to the pond’s floor and decay.
- Rocks and gravel – Not only do rock’s and gravel provide a great look for your pond but they also protect the pond liners from UV damage. Rocks or gravel also create an area for helpful bacteria to grow that is used to breakdown organic waste.
- Fish – Fish help clean your pond by eating algae and add some color and fun to your pond!
- Plants – All types of insects and wildlife – like frogs, butterflies, birds, and bees will be attracted to pond plants to help naturally keep your pond clean by removing algae and excess nutrients. Plus they provide an aesthetic appeal.
- The circulation system – Pumps and plumbing are essential to keeping your water circulating to keep a healthy environment free of algae and bacteria. It is important that you have the correct pump and pipe size for your pond to keep the natural balance.
These elements will get your pond going and keep it sustainable and self-cleansing
