Brixton gardens can feel like a private retreat with the right water feature. We install fountains, ponds, waterfalls and pondless designs for homeowners around Windrush Square and the lanes near Brixton Market. Whether you want a subtle rill or a statement piece, we tailor the look to your planting and patio layout. Expect clean lines, reliable pumps and a finish that looks intentional rather than “added on”.
The Brixton mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and newer developments means every garden presents different opportunities. Courtyard spaces in SW9 often suit compact wall fountains or pondless bubbling bowls, while wider plots towards Brixton Hill can take a pond with marginal planting and wildlife-friendly edges. We also design for family gardens where safety and low maintenance matter. Our team is based in Norbury, around 20 minutes away, so site visits and aftercare are straightforward.
We start with a quick survey, then propose a design with clear options for style, sound level and maintenance. Installations are typically completed in 2–5 days, with tidy working practices and careful protection of existing paving and borders. We pressure-test liners and pipework, set pumps on accessible bases, and commission the system before handover. Local homeowners choose us for transparent pricing, dependable scheduling and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
Gardens across the London Borough of Lambeth often have tight side access, shared boundaries and limited on-street parking, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Ground conditions vary, but we commonly find compacted sub-bases and existing hard landscaping that need thoughtful integration. We design water features brixton area homeowners can maintain easily, with service access to pumps and filters. If you’re near Electric Avenue or in SW2, we’ll advise on noise, splash control and neighbour-friendly placement.

Most Water Features in Brixton fall between £1,000 and £3,500, depending on size, materials and complexity. Simple self-contained fountains or pondless bubbling features can start around £500–£1,200. Larger ponds with liner, edging stone, filtration and planting, or multi-level waterfalls, commonly sit in the £2,000–£5,000 range. Site access, electrics, and any paving alterations can affect the final figure.
Most installations take 2–5 days from excavation to commissioning. A compact fountain or pondless feature may be completed in 2 days, while a pond with edging, filtration and planting usually needs 3–5 days. Timescales depend on access through terraced properties, the amount of groundwork, curing time for any mortar, and whether we’re integrating lighting or new paving. We confirm a schedule after the site survey.
In many cases, garden water features are permitted development and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, front gardens, or if you’re altering drainage, boundary walls or electrical supply routes. We’ll discuss your property and check any relevant constraints before work starts. If permissions or landlord/freeholder approvals are needed, we can provide drawings and specifications to support the application.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on our water feature installations, covering issues such as leaks caused by installation faults, poorly sealed joints, and pipework problems. We also install quality pumps, liners and fittings and pass on manufacturer warranties where applicable. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or lack of basic maintenance (such as blocked filters). We’ll explain the care routine at handover to keep everything running smoothly.
We offer contemporary and traditional styles, from stainless-steel blades and corten bowls to natural stone cascades and classic tiered fountains. Popular choices include wildlife-friendly ponds with planted shelves, sleek reflecting pools, and pondless waterfalls for low maintenance. We’ll help you choose based on garden size, desired sound level, sunlight, and how much upkeep you want. Finishes can be matched to existing paving, brickwork and planting schemes.
