“Talk about a difference! Holy moley! I cannot get over the amazing difference in this pond. I let it get away from me and became an overwhelming mess that was way outside of my skill set. I’m so thankful for finding Meyer…”

“I highly recommend Meyer’s Aquascape. They were very friendly and knowledgeable about ponds. They do excellent work and clean up after they have finished the job. I can’t say enough good things about them”

“Dan and his crew are recognized for their skill in both designing and building aquascapes and for good reason. My project was quite non-traditional and they met it excellently. Would recommend to anyone”

I was very impressed with the professionalism of Dan and everyone who worked on my pond project. Every aspect from cleaning out the old pond, installing the liner, and rock placement exhibited deep understanding of details I had never thought of.
Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve put together answers to the things people ask us most. If you don’t see your question here, just reach out!
Most residential water gardens take between 3 to 21 days to complete, depending on size, terrain, and design complexity. Larger or custom builds may take longer.
We provide full design services and will work with your ideas or start from scratch. Our goal is to create a beautiful, functional water feature that fits seamlessly with your landscape.
Installing a water garden involves thoughtful planning and a step-by-step build. We begin by marking the pond area and placing key components like the skimmer, plumbing, and BioFalls filter. Once the pond is excavated, we install the liner and underlayment, hook up the skimmer, and add rocks and lighting. After washing the stones and filling the pond, we construct the waterfall and stream, bring in topsoil, and build any needed retaining walls. Final touches include tweaking the waterfall, trimming the liner, mulching the berm, and cleaning the site. We finish by adding beneficial bacteria and doing a final walkthrough — then your new water garden is ready to enjoy!
