Water f​eature

Water features are a great way

to add life to your garden.

It can also attract Dragonflies, newts and maybe frogs.

As well as fish if you choose to stock them in your pond.

Below is a stream & water fall fix job,
The customer contacted me regarding a leek in the middle of the stream so on looking at the job i informed the customer i would need to move the lower end of the steam so it entered into the pond from a different position but i could make two water falls near the pond 

While i was fixing the stream i was also asked if i could fix the steps leading up to the top of the stream to access the top of the stream which you can see below

Below is part of one of my on going job.  My customer had a very small water feature in the orchard area of their land,
The water feature needed to be re made into a larger pond that would attract wildlife
this is not a fish pond,more a nature ebb and flow wildlife pond
first photo is of the old pond then the new pond and as it matures through the seasons

The Job below is now part of one of my ongoing garden maintenance jobs
at the time of the build i was working along side Mike friend who used to be the head gardener at heligan gardens
we have worked together a few times on much larger jobs in the past,
anyway this job the customer wanted a water feature that included two large koi pots at either end with a 12 meter stream runing in between the koi pots and a water fall at each end.
The first picture to the left is just after the actual build and i was at the planting stage and then as it slowly matures

Most recent pond build below beging of 2024

This pond below is the most recent pond that has be built,
and again it is for an ongoing customer.  I have been slowly changing the garden into a place that can be enjoy. I started at the side of the lawn by putting in a flower bed which will join a rockery where the the water will bubble up like a spring before making a little pool of water and then flowing into a small water fall into the pond


The water in this pond is all rain water, after making the pond fitting the fleece and liner and pump & filter placing the rocks and stone and installing the oxgenator and lights it filled
up nicely from the rain,
Plants are still needed like marginals and lillies, It will be stocked with small fish.
but i am letting the pond naturally settle before adding them,

 

The below is back in january we are clearing out the leaf sediment from the canopy of trees above the water was just a little bit cold

Below is the same ponds but in April we went back to clear the pathways around the ponds
