Island Paradise |
Description: This owner has created an island paradise retreat. We originally installed a fiberglass pond a few years ago due to space availability. The customer was happy, but like many pond owners wished the pond were larger. Then the termites moved into an existing deck and jacqussi area. When all was removed, it was time to put a larger pond in. Keeping the smaller pond in the forefront, a larger pond was built beyond. The above picture does not show the smaller pond, although blends to really look like one huge pond.
The homeowner has done a wonderfull job adding unique touches and truly enjoys her special place. The newest addition is a large bird aviary. This is the home of a pair of brightly colored Toucans! |

Meandering Streambed and Pond |
Description: This pond was a project that needed to be redesigned. The previous contractor had not properly addressed the circulation and filtration of this pond. The homeowner was struggling and working very hard to try and compensate for the design mistakes the previous contractor made. As much as they loved their pond, they were about ready to give up.
Waterscape Designs, Inc. was hired to remove previous pond and install an energy, efficient, easy to maintain pond. Our customers are very happy and now enjoy their pond! |

Third Time Is A Charm!!! |
Description: This is the third pond we have installed for this customer. The first pond was a small fiberglass with very minimal filtration. The second pond was built beyond the first pond where a wood deck was removed due to termites. It was a much larger 2,000 gallon pond. Our customer enjoyed her ponds for some years, and then decided to move.
We have just completed a 7,000 gallon pond and streambed for this customer. She said it has "exceeded her expectations!". We are sure her huge koi love their new home also. |
