When it comes to design, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, decide what type of water garden you want. There are three main types: ponds, streams, and fountains. Each has its own unique look and feel, so choose the one that best fits your style.
Once you’ve decided on a type, it’s time to start planning your design. This is where you’ll decide on things like size, shape, and location. It’s important to choose a spot that gets plenty of sunlight, as this will help your plants and fish thrive.
When it comes to size, it’s best to start small. You can always add on later if you need to. As for shape, ponds can be any shape you like, but streams and fountains usually have more of a defined shape.
Once you have your design planned out, it’s time to start building! This is where things can get a bit tricky, so it’s important to follow directions carefully. We’ll go over some basics here, but for more detailed instructions, please consult a professional.

[av_iconlist_item title=’Excavate’ link=” linktarget=” linkelement=” icon=’ue8d5′ font=’entypo-fontello’]
The first step in building a pond is to excavate the area. This simply means digging out the space where your pond will go. Be sure to make it at least two feet deep, as this will give your fish plenty of room to swim.
[/av_iconlist_item]
[av_iconlist_item title=’Line and Fill’ link=” linktarget=” linkelement=” icon=’ue8cd’ font=’entypo-fontello’]
Next, you’ll need to line the pond with an impermeable material. This can be anything from rubber to concrete. Once you have your liner in place, fill the pond with water and allow it to sit for a few days. This will help ensure that your liner is properly sealed.
[/av_iconlist_item]
[av_iconlist_item title=’Plants’ link=” linktarget=” linkelement=” icon=’ue8b8′ font=’entypo-fontello’]
Now it’s time to add some plants! Water plants are great for providing oxygen and keeping the water clean. They also add a splash of color and beauty to your pond. When choosing plants, be sure to consult a professional to make sure they’re compatible with your type of pond.
[/av_iconlist_item]
[av_iconlist_item title=’Add Fish!’ link=” linktarget=” linkelement=” icon=’ue816′ font=’entypo-fontello’]
Last but not least, it’s time to add some fish! Fish are an important part of any water garden, as they help keep the water clean and provide food for other wildlife. Again, consult a professional when choosing fish, as some types are not well suited for ponds.

Once you have your pond built and planted, it’s important to take care of it properly. This means regularly checking the water level, pH, and temperature. You should also clean out any debris that may accumulate in the pond.
It’s also important to feed your fish regularly. They’ll need high-quality food that contains all the nutrients they need to stay healthy.
With proper care, your backyard water garden will be a beautiful and relaxing oasis for years to come!

Now that you have the pond, plants, and fish, it’s time to add the finishing touches! Water gardens can be customized to fit your own personal style.
One popular addition is a waterfall. Waterfalls not only look great, but they also provide much-needed oxygen for your pond. They also help keep the water clean by aerating it.
Another popular addition is a pond filter. Pond filters help keep the water clean and clear by removing debris and waste. They’re an essential part of any water garden, and there are many different types to choose from.
No matter what additions you choose, be sure to consult a professional before making any changes to your pond. We can help you choose the best products and provide installation instructions.

Fountains are a great addition to any pond – especially those in your back or front yard! They add movement and sound to the pond and can be a real focal point. This can drown out the sound of nearby highway cars or children in a school zone! Plus, pond fountains aerate the water, which is great for the health of your pond.
We offer a variety of pond fountains, from small solar-powered ones to large, multi-tiered ones. We also offer pondless waterfall kits that can be used to create a pondless fountain feature in your backyard. Give us a call and we’ll help you get a pond or backyard water garden started today!

[av_toggle title=’Fall Cleanout’ tags=”]
Backyard Water Garden Fall Cleanout
As the temperatures begin to cool down, it’s time to start thinking about pond fall cleanout. This simply means removing all the plants and debris from your pond and giving it a good cleaning.
Fall is the perfect time to give your pond a fresh start. Remove all the dead leaves and debris that have accumulated over the summer. Give the pond a good cleaning and restock it with fresh plants.
If you have fish, they will need to be moved to an indoor aquarium or pond for the winter. Be sure to consult a professional before doing this, as some fish cannot survive the winter in an indoor pond.

[av_toggle title=’Winterization’ tags=”]
Backyard Water Garden Winterization
Once the pond is cleaned out and the fish have been moved, it’s time to winterize the pond. This simply means adding a pond heater to keep the water from freezing.
Pond heaters come in a variety of sizes and types. Be sure to choose one that’s compatible with your pond size and type.
It’s also a good idea to add an aerator to your pond. This will help keep the water oxygenated and can prevent fish die-off.
Once the pond is winterized, you can sit back and enjoy the beauty of your backyard water garden all winter long!

Backyard Water Garden Spring Cleanout
As the temperatures begin to warm up, it’s time to start thinking about pond spring cleanout. This simply means removing all the plants and debris from your pond and giving it a good cleaning.
Spring is the perfect time to give your pond a fresh start. Remove all the dead leaves and debris that have accumulated over the winter. Give the pond a good cleaning and restock it with fresh plants.
If you have fish, they will need to be moved to an indoor aquarium or pond for the winter. Be sure to consult a professional before doing this, as some fish cannot survive the winter in an indoor pond. Many fish hibernate or simply eat less during the winter months, so they don’t need to be moved – we have pond heaters that will keep the pond from freezing solid, so as long as there’s a hole in the ice for them to breathe, they’ll be just fine!
