Most Common Pond - Water Feature Problems We've Had To Fix | Rochester New York | NY

Would you like to save a lot of money, time and headaches on your new project? Of course, who wouldn't right?

Over the past 20+ years customers have come to us with all kinds of water feature problems throughout the Rochester New York area and beyond. An improperly designed waterfall can cause a great deal of water loss, or it may just look unnatural and need a face lift or rejuvenation.

It's sad but true, our primary business is refurbishing and maintaining existing ponds to make them function properly. Some of these ponds installed by other "professional" pond installers or landscapers leave little to be desired, and loads of problems that drive people crazy and force them to look for help.

If you are thinking to hire a professional, please be sure to research your contractor first. This could save a lot of frustration down the road.

We've been hired numerous times to re-do a pond that was recently built. Water features are meant to help you relax and enjoy them, not get you frustrated.
