"I designed the rain garden, but their staff (Jeff) gave suggestions the closer we got to the date of excavation.  I liked his ideas and we worked well together.  They connected drain tile to my downspout, dug a trench (underneath a crushed limestone walkway they had installed the year before), and excavated the rain garden.  They used the soil from the excavation to berm the garden and the other existing rain garden I have.  They rototilled the garden, mediated with compost.  They also removed turf from alongside my driveway, laid material and 4" of crushed limestone.  They seeded or rototilled areas that were disturbed based on the design. <br /> I worked with them last year and may have them back next year for Phase III - I am trying to have an environmentally friendly, low maintenance (native plants) front yard that is nicely designed.  They are a great partner. <br />"

"Very smoothly.   They were polite, courteous and worked swiftly and efficiently.   They did the work in one week with no issues or damage to any of the surrounding plantings, trees or brickwork.    They also cleaned up after themselves 100% including sweeping up and putting down grass seed which I did not ask them to do.  I would rate them A++. <br /> They were only late by 30 minutes for the final appointment after the work was completed when I was to pay them the final 40%.   That's why I rated them a "B" for punctuality. <br />  If I could put a picture here I would because the area is completely beautiful.   They did a great job!"

FAQs for water feature fountain or waterfall installation projects in Detroit, MI

Installing a drinking fountain costs between $500 and $1,000 for indoor models and an average of $3,000 for outdoor units, including installation. The cost depends on the design, materials, and professional labor involved, with service rates ranging from $45 to $200 per hour. Investing in a drinking fountain can enhance your space's functionality and aesthetic appeal.

A water fountain increases home resale value by elevating curb appeal and enhancing overall property aesthetics. A well-cared-for fountain that matches the home’s design and functions flawlessly boosts buyer confidence and market desirability. Routine maintenance and professional installation ensure proper performance, ensuring that your fountain benefits both daily enjoyment and long-term resale value.

Maintaining a fountain costs $25 to $50 per month for basic upkeep and $50 to $150 for professional deep cleaning or servicing. A fountain of any size requires routine draining, thorough cleaning of the pump, tubing, and surface, plus regular inspections for wear, algae, or mineral deposits. Annual maintenance and sealing further extend its lifespan and enhance its appearance.

How much power your water fountain uses depends on the pump’s size and operating schedule. Smaller fountains use less than 10 watts per day, while larger cascade pumps can require up to 1,000 watts. This translates to an average increase of around $25 per month on your electric bill.

Water fountain installation takes anywhere from a few hours to several days. The installation timeline depends on the fountain’s design, site preparation requirements, and the involvement of professional plumbing and electrical services. Prefabricated water features are set up in a few hours, while custom designs require additional structural and aesthetic modifications and take much longer.
