A well-designed water feature can transform a Streatham garden, adding a focal point, soft background sound and a sense of luxury. We create fountains, ponds, waterfalls and pondless features that work beautifully in everything from compact courtyards to larger family gardens. Whether you’re near Streatham Common or just off Streatham High Road, we’ll tailor the design to your layout and how you use the space. Installations are planned to look natural, run efficiently and stay easy to maintain.
Streatham’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, mansion flats and modern apartments often comes with varied garden shapes and access routes. We’re used to working with side returns, narrow passages and shared boundaries, especially around Streatham Hill and Streatham Park. For SW16 and SW2 properties, we can design compact pondless features that suit paved gardens, or create wildlife-friendly ponds for greener plots. Every scheme is sized to your available space, sunlight and existing planting.
We start with a site visit, discuss the look you want (contemporary or traditional), then produce a clear plan covering placement, electrics, filtration and finishes. Our team handles excavation, base preparation, liners or preformed units, pumps and safe cable routing, keeping disruption low and leaving the site tidy each day. You’ll receive practical guidance on care and seasonal maintenance, plus straightforward aftercare if you’d like us to service it. Local homeowners choose us for dependable scheduling, neat workmanship and long-lasting results.
Gardens across the London Borough of Lambeth can vary in levels, drainage and soil, so we assess ground conditions before specifying bases and liners. Around Streatham Vale and Streatham Common, access can be tight and parking limited, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for neighbours, shared boundaries and noise-sensitive times where needed. The result is a water feature that’s built properly, runs smoothly and suits the character of local period properties.

Most Water Features in Streatham fall between £1,000 and £3,500, depending on size, materials and complexity. Simple self-contained fountains can start from around £500, while larger ponds, multi-tier waterfalls or premium contemporary builds can reach £5,000. Costs are influenced by excavation, access, electrics, filtration, edging stonework and any planting or lighting you’d like included. We’ll recommend options to match your garden and budget.
Typical installation takes 2–5 days for most Streatham gardens. 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 excavation depth, ground conditions, access through side passages, curing time for bases, and whether electrics or additional landscaping is included. We’ll confirm a clear schedule before work starts.
In many cases, a garden water feature is permitted development and won’t need planning permission. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, major level changes, or if you’re altering boundaries or drainage. We’ll discuss your property details in the London Borough of Lambeth and flag anything that may require checks. If needed, we can advise on best practice for electrics, safety and water management to stay compliant.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for the installed water feature structure and build elements, giving you confidence it’s been constructed correctly. This covers issues linked to installation quality, such as base preparation and fitting. Pumps, lights and other components are covered by their manufacturer warranties, which vary by brand. We’ll explain what’s included, how to maintain performance, and offer aftercare support if anything needs attention.
We install everything from traditional ponds and stone-edged waterfalls to contemporary rills, stainless-steel spouts and minimalist bowl fountains. For safer, low-maintenance gardens, pondless features hide the reservoir below ground while keeping the water movement above. Finishes can include natural stone, porcelain paving, brick detailing to suit period homes, or sleek composite materials for modern terraces. We’ll help you choose a style that fits your space, budget and maintenance preferences.
