It seems that more and more we are being called to help repair or renovate an existing water feature. As much as we enjoy starting fresh with a blank canvas, we also love these projects, they are more challenging than starting from scratch. When our customers purchased their home the waterfall was not working properly. They called us to see if we could help them bring it back to life. Here are a few before and after pictures of the waterfall and landscape renovations.

The plants around the water feature were overgrown, the stream was full of leaves and the liner was pushed down so that when the pump was on water would flow over the edges and into the grass. Even the waterfall weir was visible.

I love this close up shot of the waterfall. What is most satisfying is how happy the homeowners are with their working waterfall! Here is a picture of it a couple months later with the landscape growing and filling in.

Dave also planted a row of Viburnum to act as a natural fence to help block out the street noise from behind the house and renovated the landscaping on the front of the house which was a bit overgrown.

After: sometimes less is more.
