A well-placed water feature can transform a patio, lawn edge or quiet corner into a focal point you’ll use every day. We create fountains, ponds, waterfalls and pondless features for homeowners across CR2, including near Sanderstead Recreation Ground and All Saints Church. Whether you want gentle trickling for relaxation or a bold statement piece, we tailor the design to your garden’s scale and planting scheme. Every installation is built for easy maintenance and year-round enjoyment.
Sanderstead’s larger detached houses, executive homes and period properties often have generous rear gardens, side access and established planting—ideal conditions for feature ponds and longer water runs. We also work in nearby Purley, Selsdon and Hamsey Green where layouts can vary from wide plots to more structured terraces. Our designs respect existing landscaping, sightlines from key rooms, and practical details such as safe edging and child-friendly options. If you prefer low upkeep, a pondless feature can deliver the sound of water without open water.
We start with a site visit to assess levels, power supply, drainage and the best viewing points, then provide a clear design and itemised quote. Installation typically includes groundworks, liners or reservoirs, pump and filtration setup, and careful finishing with stonework and planting. We protect lawns and paths, keep disruption down, and leave the area clean and ready to enjoy. Local homeowners choose us for consistent communication, premium materials and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
In the water features sanderstead area, we often encounter sloping lawns and mixed ground conditions that affect how we set levels and conceal pipework. Access can be tight on some roads, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to avoid disruption. We also consider nearby trees and leaf drop when specifying skimmers, filters and maintenance routines. If any restrictions apply in the London Borough of Croydon, we’ll advise early and design around them.

We offer contemporary and traditional styles, including stainless or stone fountains, formal reflecting pools, wildlife-friendly ponds, and naturalistic waterfalls. Popular finishes include natural stone, porcelain edging to match patios, and gravel surrounds for pondless reservoirs. We can add subtle LED lighting, rills, or stepping-stone crossings where space allows. During design, we’ll balance your preferred look with maintenance level, safety, and how the feature will sound and flow.
