What Kind Of Water Features Do We Maintain?




In a word, EVERYTHING!

Water features can range from the simple, such as pools and ponds, to the intricate, such as cascading waterfalls into koi ponds.  Based on your budget and space, you can have a large variety of beautiful aquatic landscapes built.  Whether you regularly use them or they simply add a conversation starter to your gatherings, how do you keep them looking gorgeous?

This is where you would need a pond and water maintenance company like Laughing Waters!

So, what kind of water features does Laughing Waters maintain?

Ponds - One of the most common water features, we can handle all varieties of ponds.  Cleaning, filter systems, liners, trimming, repair - our maintenance pros can do it all.  Whether you have a natural pond, reflecting pool, ornamental pool, water garden or fish pond, there is a standard of upkeep that goes with them and we can help.

Waterfalls and Water Walls - Another great feature is the waterfall.  Standard waterfall, pondless waterfall, rain curtains or even a water wall, our technicians understand the intricacies of such incredible features.

Scuppers and Sconces - These features are typically found in inground pools or stand alone channels and deliver water from an upper level to a lower level.  From simple one stage levels to complex levels with LED lighting, they are beautiful and vital to upkeep.

Jets - Whether it's a backyard pool feature or seen in a commercial plaza, jets are an eye-catching sight.  They shoot streams of water as wide or narrow as you would like and use programmable units to set pace.

Bubblers - Bubblers, aka gurglers, create the impression that water is "bubbling" up from the ground like a hot spring.  They can accompany a larger aquatic display or simply be standalone features meant to give an air of elegance.  Highly customizable, the pleasant sound they emit is often a reason why they are a highly appealing water feature.

Streams - No matter if they are lazy channels that wind through a path or have a set destination by cascading into a pond, streams are natural filters that can sustain the ecosystem of other water features.  They can sometimes be the most design intensive of them all and require regular maintenance.

Fountains and Bird Baths - Fountains can be grand designs with powerful streams of water descending through a pattern of stages or small and minimally built.  The options for fountain design are near limitless but they usually have a standing body of water in which they fall into.  Every aspect - standing water, design levels and intricate pump systems - need to be cleaned and well-maintained to keep them functioning in peak performance.  Bird baths, although much smaller and simpler, can still find a plethora of design options and need a good tending to on the regular.

Pools - Yep, swimming pools are water features.  They can be simple inground options or intricately designed aquatic hideaways, but these features need a steady schedule of maintenance due to their constant use and interaction with multiple foreign bacteria.

So, when we say Laughing Waters Pond Maintenance covers everything, we truly mean it!  If you aren't sure if your water feature fits the bill or needs to be looked at, give us a call and we can help guide you.
