Spring is almost here!!

Spring time is just around the corner!

It’s time to start thinking about that new landscape project or backyard oasis you’ve been wanting to create in your backyard.

Pondless waterfall Asheville, Nc

Here in Asheville, Nc, Spring is the best time to landscape your yard. It’s also a great time to get your existing pond or water feature cleaned out and ready to go for the season. If you have a koi pond, March and early April is the best time to have your pond cleaned out. The fish are waking up from their winter rest and the bio activity in the pond is starting to thrive.

We can help you professionally clean your pond while keeping your fish safe.

Spring time in Asheville is also the perfect time for some fresh mulch around the yard, or maybe a new flagstone patio and fire pit so you can enjoy the summer outside with your family.

New Pondless Waterfall

Pondless Waterfall

The last couple weeks we’ve been working on this water feature.

I think it’s coming out great so far!

We set some pretty large boulders into this feature. The access was tight, but we managed to create something beautiful.

We added some low voltage aquatic lighting to this feature. The next step will be to add plants and mulch. The plants are always the framework for the waterfall.

More progress pics to come!

Wood, Stone and Water…

Pondless Waterfall

Working in the landscape industry allows us to create beautiful features with lots of different types of materials. We are just finishing up this custom Pondless waterfall in Weaverville, NC.

This was a fun waterfall to build and was designed to flow out from under the new deck that we had built. Blending the new deck into the rock work and waterfall.

In order to do this we had to custom cut the stairs into one of our waterfall frame boulders.

Wood stairs and boulder

At first it seemed like a problem. We didn’t plan to cut the step stringers into the boulder. But after we set the waterfall rocks, we realized the frame boulder was too tall. So we got together with the carpenter and came up with a solution. In the end I think it helped to meld the two features together.

Waterfall and deck

We’ve had the opportunity to use wood, stone and even metal into some of our features. I really love to be able to blend the different materials when possible.

There are lots of options for your water feature projects. So think outside the box and be creative!

Also using ceramics and sculpture can be a fun way to create a water feature or fountain

Stone Veneer Asheville

We are in process of creating a custom pondless waterfall for our clients at First Baptist Church Swannanoa.

This is one of the few interior water features we have worked on.

It will be set at the entrance to the kids worship center in the church. I’m excited about working in this project and helping create a fun space for the kids.

The feature was framed into the wall with a raised pondless basin extending out into the room. The pump and filter housing is set in the narrow closet to the right of the feature.

We used an Iron Might 1/15 HP external pump for this feature. It was a tight space to plumb the pump into, but we did it.

We installed a 16 inch Aquascapes metal waterfall spillway into the wall.

Then we lined the feature with EPDM rubber liner. On top of the liner we laid DuraRock with a final waterproof coating on top.

Today we started laying veneer stone on the waterfall basin wall.

We will cap this wall with Gray Crab Orchard flagstone and install Aquablox into the pondless basin.

Check back next week for more progress.
