Coulsdon’s semi-rural feel, with open downland at Farthing Downs and walks through Happy Valley, inspires gardens that blend nature with clean, practical design. We create fountains, ponds, waterfalls and pondless features that suit CR5 plots of all sizes. Whether you want a subtle water bowl by a patio or a statement cascade, we tailor the look and sound level to your space. Every installation is planned to be safe, durable and easy to maintain.
Homeowners across Old Coulsdon, Chipstead Valley and Hooley often have generous lawns, established borders and mature planting that deserve a feature with presence. We regularly work with large detached houses, 1930s properties and newer developments, matching materials and scale to the architecture. If you’re dealing with slopes, raised terraces or awkward corners, we can turn them into a natural setting for water. The result is a feature that feels intentional, not dropped in.
We start with a site visit to check levels, power routes, drainage and how you use the garden day to day. You’ll receive clear options on style, size and running costs, plus a tidy, scheduled installation plan. We protect lawns and paving, keep noise and disruption controlled, and leave everything tested and demonstrated. Local homeowners choose us for dependable workmanship, straightforward communication and a finish that lasts.
We’re used to Coulsdon’s varied plots, from flatter lawns to gently sloping gardens near the downs. Access and parking can differ between Old Coulsdon streets and newer developments, so we plan deliveries and spoil removal to minimise disruption. We also factor in local drainage and soil conditions when setting bases and liners. For projects in the water features coulsdon area, we’ll advise on safe electrics and practical maintenance for year-round use.

Most water features in Coulsdon fall between £1,000 and £3,500, depending on size, materials and whether you choose a pond, waterfall or pondless system. Smaller self-contained fountains can start from around £500, while larger ponds with filtration, stonework and planting can reach £5,000+. We’ll confirm costs after checking access, power supply, ground levels and the finish you want.
Typical installation takes 2–5 days. A compact fountain or pondless feature may be completed in 2–3 days, while a pond with edging, filtration and a small waterfall can take closer to 4–5 days. Timescales depend on excavation depth, ground conditions, curing time for bases, and any extras such as lighting, planting or bespoke stonework. We’ll give a clear schedule before work starts.
In many cases, garden water features are permitted development and don’t need planning permission. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, front gardens, or if you’re altering drainage or building raised structures near boundaries. We’ll discuss your layout and check what applies in the London Borough of Croydon before installation. If approvals are needed, we can advise on what to submit and how to keep things compliant.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as base stability, liner seating and structural build quality when used as intended. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to pumps, filters and lighting, and we’ll register or supply documentation where available. We also explain maintenance routines to protect your warranty, including winter care and safe cleaning. If something doesn’t look right, we respond quickly and fix it properly.
We install everything from contemporary water bowls and blade waterfalls to traditional ponds with natural stone edging. Popular finishes include porcelain or sandstone surrounds, slate, granite setts, and pre-formed or liner-built ponds with planting shelves. Pondless features suit families who want the sound of water without open water. We’ll help you choose a style that matches your home, the garden’s scale, and the level of maintenance you’re comfortable with.
