Fountains

Water is the only thing a garden can't fake

Wall fountains, courtyard basins and full estate installations, much of it hand-crafted, all of it built to run through a Southern California summer.

From a self-contained basin to a courtyard centerpiece

At the small end, a self-contained fountain plugs in, recirculates, and gives you sound in a corner within an hour. At the other end, a multi-tier basin gets set, plumbed and sealed on site over several days.

Our fountain work is where the hand-crafted side of the business shows most clearly. Basins are cast and finished by people who have been doing it for years, and the finishes are made to weather rather than peel.

If you're planning a courtyard or driveway circle, come talk it through before the hardscape goes in. Basin diameter, water depth, pump sizing and the electrical run are all much cheaper to solve on paper.

Good to know

Sound
Tier height and drop distance decide how loud a fountain is. Stand next to a running one before you commit.
Water and power
Most installations need a nearby GFCI outlet and a hose bib. Autofill is worth it on anything large.
Maintenance
Hard water in the San Gabriel Valley leaves scale. A weekly top-up and a periodic clean keeps a basin looking right.
Lead time
Stock pieces go home the same day. Large custom builds need scheduling, ask early.
