Rocks like naturally weathered Limestone or Sandstone are used to frame the pond. To complete the pond, we install aquatic plants, that are planted directly into the base gravel, to ensure a totally natural look. Easily adding fish of your choice will help maintain your pond, by eating unsightly algae.
If you live in Austin, Hays & Travis County, TX and the surrounding areas, we can help you install a beautiful koi pond or garden pond. We would love to help you transform an area on your property into a lovely pond. Please give us a call, or contact us, to speak with us about how you can schedule a meeting to speak with a professional pond installer.
Our custom designed ponds look totally natural, are ecologically friendly and low maintenance. Every pond is a balanced ecosystem, which includes a biofalls filter/pump system and skimmer. This combination of components ensures a totally clear pond, with moving water.
The skimmer eliminates routine maintenance, by removing debris before it sinks to the bottom of the pond. This feature allows pond construction in any location, even directly below trees. Ask us about the benefits of having an ecosystem pond kit installed at your home or place of business.
NOTE: Pricing for most ecosystem ponds in the Austin, TX and surrounding areas, start at approximately $18K & up, depending on the size and scope of the project.

If you are already a goldfish or koi pond owner, you will see our resources and information on our website here, to help you better understand our proven methods for building and maintaining various types of fish/koi ponds and water garden type water features.
There are backyard ponds that come in many types, kinds and sizes. Each version of them has its unique individual characteristics. Before you start laying out a pond project it is important that you make a choice between one of the different types of ponds. There are many different kinds of ponds you can choose from. Do your research and let us know when you decide.
Once You Decide To Build Your Pond
Once you've decided what kind of pond you are going to build, determining its size, and the place to build in your yard or garden area, will be the next important step. Pay special attention to the position in relation to views from inside any buildings, and plantings in regard of shadow, continued growth of roots and foundation.
You should always consider what pond shape & form would best fit in with your house and your garden design. A stark pond, square, L-form, or fully round pond will properly fit in with a modern house and garden. A naturally formed pond, for example, is kidney-shaped & fits in most all other spaces, without issues. The natural style pond is our most popular install, with most Austin, Hays & Travis County, TX area homeowners.
About Your Pond's Location
To get the maximum enjoyment from your backyard paradise investment, we suggest having your fish pond or water garden installed close to the areas where you spend most of your outdoor time. We also suggest that you take into consideration the views from inside the house as well. Being able to see your pond lit up at night from windows, and listening to waterfalls and streams, with open windows, will fill your house with the sound of moving water.
A lot of people make the mistake of installing their pond or water garden too far away from the house, in a "Dead Area" of their yard to try and make it interesting. In our opinion this is the worst possible location to try and get the most enjoyment out of your investment. Long story short... Move it closer to your house or patio.
