What Type of Water Feature Can We Create For You?There are many different types of water features. No matter the size or layout of your outdoor space, we can create a water feature that creates a serene, relaxing environment for you and your family. Here are some of the most popular water features we use here in Southwest Florida. Of course, if you have something else in mind or are looking for a custom creation, Peer Landscaping in Fort Myers, FL is happy to help you achieve your dream. 

Natural ponds

Natural ponds are extremely popular with homeowners and can be incorporated into just about any type of landscape design. They’re relatively easy to make. We excavate a hole and line with a rigid or flexible liner. A filtration system and submersible pump keep the water clean. We often recommend adding a natural rock water fall to mask the noise from the pump and add beauty to this feature. We also love adding lotus flowers and other water loving plants to the pond.

Waterwalls

Elegant and refined, waterwalls slowly cascade water down a masonry or tiled wall which makes such a beautiful sound as well as looking lovely. A pump feeds the water back to the top, so it continually cycles. We think these make great additions to luxury outdoor kitchens or pool decks. Pro tip: incorporate LED lights for a truly stunning visual effect. 

Waterfalls

Waterfalls can be incorporated as a standalone feature or included in a pool or pond to create a natural, inviting hardscape. We think it’s best to use natural materials to build a waterfall. Real stone adds to the ambiance, but you can also use sculpted concrete or fiberglass to mimic the real thing. We’ll help you determine how high your waterfall can be based on the topography of your yard. We’ll also discuss how much noise the feature will make, based on the type of movement and number of drops the water goes through. 

Scuppers

Think of a sconce. Now think of a sconce with a bunch of water pouring out of it. Scuppers move water between upper and lower levels. For example, they can be used as part of an inground pool or possibly in a standalone channel. Filters keep the water clean, and the sound level will depend on the volume of water that drops between levels. Scuppers are easy to incorporate with other water features. We think they’re a great way to add interest and old-world charm to outdoor living spaces.

Bubblers or gurglers

These unique design elements give the impression that water is gurgling up from underground, kind of like an underground geyser. Bubblers can be large or small. Either way, they’re a great way to add visual interest and serene sounds to your landscape. We like to integrate them around a patio or outdoor kitchen. 

Fountains

Fountains offer a lot of versatility. They can be large or small, ornate or minimalistic. They may involve bubblers or even scuppers, and LED lights are a great way to add to the elegance. We have installed fountains as standalone features or incorporated them into the comprehensive design. The possibilities are truly endless. And when it comes to creating a focal point to a front yard garden, we think tall fountains are a stunning addition.

If you can dream it, we can do it

We’ve covered the benefits of installing a water feature in your yard as well as some of the most common types of water features. But we haven’t addressed the importance of professional installation. Water features will only be hassle-free if they’re installed correctly, so it’s important to call on an experienced landscape contractor. Peer Landscaping of Fort Myers, FL is the answer.
