New Trends for Water Features in Rockville MD

Considering water features in Rockville MD? That's no surprise - water features are becoming more popular with Rockville MD homeowners. Here are some new trends to think about:

  • Ponds and water gardens: deep enough for koi and goldfish to over-winter, and an increase in the number and types of aquatic plants that are used.
  • Bubbling fountains: a boulder with a hole or holes drilled through it can produce a cost-effective bubbling fountain. In the past, ceramic vases have also been popular due to the variety of designs and colors.
  • Rock column fountains: a larger version of the boulder bubbling fountain, rock column fountains are usually installed in sets of 3 near each other. The water disappears into a bed of gravel where it is re-circulated back to the columns. Placement of these fountains require more planning, as their size is a consideration.
  • Sheet waterfalls: are the most popular water features lately, due to the trend in outdoor living spaces that incorporate blocks and bricks. Adding led lights makes for beautiful water feature you that can enjoy at night.

Whichever you choose, water features are beautiful and relaxing focal points for landscaping in Rockville MD.

Angies List Super Service Awared 2013

They did a retaining wall. It's perfect. They showed up when they said they were going to and finished the job up nicely. I hadn't worked with them before...I have some jobs in the works, and I plan on reusing them...I would call on them again...
