The home owner had an existing, small pond that was a diy system. It was ok , but they wanted a bigger pond and waterfall. The Pondman crew removed the old pond system, and built a brand new system.
Entry Way falls
This homeowner in San Diego wanted a focal point at the entrance to the courtyard of their home. We agreed it would need to be small enough that it wouldn’t push out the surrounding foliage, but still large enough to grab the attention of anyone in the area.
A Pondless waterfall was agreed on. Approximately 3ft high, this pondless waterfall was tucked in the corner. Thia made it visible from the front sidewalk and street.
Planning on the future we designed it in a way that as the surrounding bird of paradise plants matured a frame would be created by them. Looks pretty cool.
North San Diego front yard pond
This pond is over 25 ft from left to right and 23 ft from front to back. With over 10,000 gallons of water an hour going over the falls. It has more than enough ‘wow’ factor. Behind the main waterfall is a bog-type filter which feeds water from the bottom up. Over 70 plants are in the water area, both in the pond and the bog. The project lasted about a week and a half, and was a pretty cool use of the space provided.
The home owner wanted to have the falls low enough to see the house and trees behind the waterfeature. This gave us the opportunity to use some different tricks and techniques.
