This is where it starts! A scheduled meeting with Bill Harmon, where he will listen to your ideas, and discuss what options are available based off your needs. Bill will discuss general cost, budgeting and overall timeline for your backyard project.
Koi Ponds (Ecosystem Ponds)
Koi ponds bring living art to the backyard—moving water, water lilies and lotus, and friendly fish that meet you at the edge. We build true ecosystem ponds using skimmers, biofalls, and (when appropriate) constructed wetland filtration to keep water clear with minimal chemicals. Depth, circulation, and aeration are engineered so fish stay healthy through La Porte’s hot summers and mild winters.
Your design can include stone feeding shelves, natural bridges, and seating right at the waterline. We’ll guide fish load, plant choices, and maintenance routines that match your lifestyle—whether you prefer hands-on care or a service plan that keeps everything dialed in for you.
Pondless Waterfalls (Disappearing Waterfalls)
Love the sound of water without a full pond? Pondless waterfalls recirculate to a hidden underground basin, making them ideal for families with children or pets and for smaller spaces along fences or side yards. You get the same artistic rockwork, stream meanders, and soothing white noise—just with simplified maintenance.
We scale these features from compact, single-drop cascades to multi-tiered streams that wind through the landscape. Add low-voltage LED lighting for nighttime sparkle and smart controls to schedule flows for weekdays, weekends, or company.
Landscape Fountains (Urns, Bowls, Bubblers)
Fountain features deliver instant curb appeal near entries, patios, or garden beds. From stacked-slate urns and spillway bowls to basalt columns and bubbling rocks, we design single centerpieces or grouped sets at varying heights for rhythm and depth.
Fountains provide gentle sound and year-round interest with very little upkeep—perfect for tighter footprints or accent areas. Ask about auto-fill, splash-management, and integrated lighting so your fountain looks amazing day and night without fuss.
Pond Repairs & Renovations
Leaks, cloudy water, or underperforming pumps can sap the joy from any feature. We troubleshoot systematically—edges, plumbing, skimmers, and waterfalls—to pinpoint issues and fix the root cause. Many problems are solved with edge resets, upgraded circulation, or adding an intake bay to capture debris before it clogs the system.
If your pond needs a refresh, we can rebuild the waterfall for better flow, add a wetland filter for crystal clarity, re-rock for a more natural look, or re-size the feature to match how you live today. We also retrofit energy-smart pumps and safer, code-compliant lighting and electrical.
Outdoor Firepits
Fire brings people together and extends your outdoor season. We design and build gas or wood-burning firepits that complement your water feature and patio layout. Materials, shapes, and seating arrangements are customized to block wind and maintain safe clearances, while keeping conversation easy and comfortable.
Pairing fire with water is a La Porte favorite—softly lit waterfalls plus a warm flame create unforgettable evenings at home. We’ll coordinate gas routing, ignition options, and finishes so your firepit looks purpose-built, not added-on.
Patios
Your patio is the stage for everything else. We build paver and natural-stone patios with proper base preparation for La Porte’s soils so surfaces stay level and drain correctly over time. Borders, inlays, and curves echo the lines of your pond or waterfall for a unified, custom look.
We’ll help right-size the footprint for dining, lounging, and circulation, integrating seat walls and planters where they add function without crowding. Surface textures and joint treatments are selected for traction, longevity, and easy upkeep in our coastal climate.
Walkways
Thoughtful walkways guide guests from the back door to the water’s edge, the grill, or a fireside seat. We use durable, slip-resistant pavers or natural stone with gentle grades and solid edging so paths hold shape through heavy use and changing weather.
Lighting, planting pockets, and subtle curves make walks feel like part of the landscape rather than a straight line across it. We design routes that protect turf, improve drainage, and tie the whole backyard together.
Outdoor Lighting (Night Lighting)
Professional low-voltage LED lighting transforms your space after dark, highlighting cascades and stream riffles, backlighting specimen trees, and adding safe, inviting path light. We tune beam spreads and warm color temperatures for a natural, resort-like feel—not a runway.
Smart controls and separate zones let you set everyday scenes and dial up special moments for entertaining. Efficient fixtures keep operating costs low while maximizing the time you get to enjoy your investment.
