Our Water Feature Services in Kirkland

Garden Water Features & Decorative Fountains

Garden fountains and decorative water features add that peaceful water sound wherever you want it. Could be your front entry, a courtyard, the back patio—really anywhere. Maybe you're picturing something modern and minimal, or maybe you want classic stone with some character.We build custom water features that actually work with your existing setup, not just look weird and out of place. Materials that last, pumps that don't cost a fortune to run. Each water feature installation gets thought through carefully so it looks balanced and becomes a spot you'll actually use. Your garden transforms into a place that feels inviting, rather than just... there.

Ponds & Aquatic Landscape Features

Pond installation is about creating something that looks natural in your yard. Whether it's a quiet reflection pond or a lively koi pond full of fish, we build aquatic landscape features that feel organic rather than obviously fake. Good liner and basin systems combined with proper filtration and drainage systems keep the water clean without constant chemical treatments.Every pond is designed to blend with the surrounding plants and rocks. These features don't just look nice—they attract birds and wildlife, add genuine movement, and create real life in your yard that regular landscaping can't match.

Waterfalls & Stream Installations

Waterfalls and streams create something pretty special outside. We use natural stone water features and work with elevation changes to make it look like nature did it, not like we obviously built it last week. These look great with ponds or stand alone as something that catches your eye. Recirculating water systems keep them flowing while being smart about water use and energy costs. The moving water drowns out traffic noise and legitimately helps you decompress after long days. Whether you want subtle or dramatic, our waterfalls and streams add movement and real calm to your outdoor area.

Pondless Water Features

Pondless water features give you all the beauty of flowing water without dealing with pond maintenance. They're perfect if you've got little kids running around or you're working with limited space. Water reservoirs stay hidden underground while you get gorgeous cascades or bubbling stone displays up top. Built with safety in mind—durable basins and energy-efficient water pumps that just work.These pondless features are stupid-easy to maintain, look incredible, and adapt to almost any landscape style. You get that relaxing water sound while keeping everything tidy and worry-free.

Water Feature Repairs & Upgrades

We do water feature repair and upgrades that actually fix the problem. Got a leak that's driving you up the wall? Pump that's struggling? We'll sort it out. Replace old components, improve water flow, and upgrade to better filtration technology.Small fixes or complete overhauls—whatever it needs. Upgrading your existing feature can add years to its life, cut down energy bills, and make your outdoor space feel brand new without paying for total replacement.

Benefits of Adding Water Features to Your Property

Running water just has this way of mellowing everything out. Cuts down the stress, covers up traffic noise and barking dogs, and makes your backyard feel like somewhere you actually want to hang out.
Water features bring movement and depth that regular landscaping can't. It takes your yard from looking fine to looking impressive.
A well-designed water feature in Kirkland catches people's attention and can boost your home's value when it's time to sell.
Water brings in birds, butterflies, and beneficial wildlife. Adds natural beauty and movement throughout the year.
Modern outdoor water features are way easier to maintain than people think. A little regular cleaning and occasional checkups keep things running smoothly.
Tiny garden? Massive yard? Doesn't matter. Water features get tailored to fit whatever size and style you're dealing with.
