Residential Fountains bring more than beauty to your property.

Adding a water fountain to your existing landscape not only adds beauty, but it will add value to your property. Creating a beautiful and welcoming landscape not only welcomes guests but increases the potential for resale in the event you are selling your home.

Residential fountains can be placed in the backyard to create a relaxing area to unwind or a place to entertain family and friends. They can also be placed in the front to add curb appeal to your property. Adding attractive plants and lighting can create a beautiful and welcoming affect.

If you are thinking about appearance and curb appeal the front yard is a perfect place to create a welcoming focal point. It is the first thing guests and potential home buyers see when they arrive at your home. If you live in an area where noise is an issue, the sound of water falling can take attention away from the noise.

When it comes to adding value to your property, consider adding a residential fountain to your property.

DIY fountains can bring beauty to your landscaping, hire a professional for a job well done.

Building a water feature in your backyard yourself can be done, but to make things easier and to be assured the job is done right, hire a professional. There are so many things to consider before taking on such a huge project.

•  Size & location: Before you begin you need to determine the size fountain you want and pick the perfect location. A water feature is a natural focal point in any landscape and adjoining areas can be well suited for entertaining.

•  Power source: Most areas have strict codes when it comes to wiring the pumps and lighting associated with water features.  Using a qualified licensed electrician will ensure that everything is up to code and safe for you and your family to enjoy.

•  Plumbing: In addition to the plumbing required for the water feature itself, a “make-up” water line must be run to the water feature.  This “make-up” water line is connected to your home’s existing plumbing and replaces the water in the water feature that is lost due to evaporation and splashing.

•  Labor: Depending on the size and type of fountain you are installing, you should consider the amount of labor that will be involved.  Site preparation and rock placement comprise most of the labor in building a water feature.  This can be back breaking work, especially if you do not have the equipment that most contractors have.  If you are planning a large water feature, you may want to contact a pro.

•  Permits: Before beginning the project you will need to check with your city to see if any permits are required.

Whether you choose to do it yourself or hire an expert, adding a fountain to your landscape is a great way to increase the value of your property and create a beautiful focal point.

DIY fountains are a great way to design your own backyard oasis.

DIY fountains have become more and more popular with homeowners over the years. It used to be that bird baths were the most common focal point of landscaping. Now homeowners want water fountains that range from a pot with trickling water all the way up to exotic water falls cascading down a mountain of rocks.

Whatever you desire, there are fountains to satisfy everyone’s taste and budget. If you’ve made the decision to build your own backyard fountain, your first step is to do some research.

Before you pick the location of your fountain, consider exactly what you want to create. Is it just going to be for show, or do you want to create a gathering place around the fountain? Will you use the area for entertaining? If so, you will need a large enough space to accommodate the fountain and accompanying furniture.

Once your location is decided, you now need to decide on the architectural style for the area. You will need to decide what type of material you would like your fountain to be. There are stone, bronze, copper, steel and fiberglass just to name a few.

Now you are ready to meet with the experts and get started.
