A well-built water feature can transform a Sutton garden, adding sound, reflection and a striking focal point. We install fountains, ponds, waterfalls and pondless systems for homeowners across SM1, SM2 and SM3. Whether you’re near Sutton High Street or relaxing weekends by Manor Park, we’ll tailor the design to your plot, planting and how you use the space. Every build is planned for safe electrics, reliable circulation and easy maintenance.
Our local experience covers everything from Victorian terraces with compact courtyards to 1930s semis with wider lawns, plus modern developments that benefit from clean-lined, low-splash designs. In Cheam and Carshalton we often create naturalistic ponds with marginal planting, while Benhilton and Rosehill clients frequently choose contemporary bowls, rills and blade waterfalls to suit newer patios. We’ll assess levels, drainage and existing services so the feature sits naturally and performs properly year-round. The result looks intentional, not “added on”.
We start with a site visit, then provide a clear specification covering the pump, filtration, liner or reservoir, and any lighting. Installation is typically completed in 2–5 days, with careful protection of paving and borders and a thorough clean-down on completion. You’ll get guidance on seasonal care, plus aftercare support if you’d like us to maintain it. Homeowners choose us for transparent pricing, dependable scheduling and builds that stay watertight and quiet in operation.
Gardens across the London Borough of Sutton vary from level lawns to sloped plots, so we plan falls, edging and spillways to prevent oversplash and pooling. We also factor in access restrictions common to terraces and parking considerations near busier spots such as the St Nicholas Centre. Where clay-heavy ground is present, we stabilise bases and protect liners with proper underlay and sub-base preparation. Our approach keeps features stable, quiet and efficient through wet winters and dry spells.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most water features in Sutton fall between £1,000 and £3,500, depending on size and complexity. Simple self-contained fountains can start around £500, while larger ponds with planting shelves, filtration, edging stone and lighting can reach £5,000. Costs are influenced by excavation, access, electrical runs, the type of pump/filters, and the finish (stone, porcelain, metal or bespoke features).
Installation typically takes 2–5 days. A small fountain or pondless feature can often be completed in 2–3 days, while ponds with waterfalls, substantial stonework, or integrated lighting usually take longer. Timescales depend on excavation volume, ground conditions, curing time for concrete bases, and how much edging and planting is included. We confirm a realistic programme after the site survey and design sign-off.
Most garden water features are classed as permitted development and don’t require planning permission. However, restrictions can apply if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if the feature includes substantial structures, boundary changes, or affects drainage. We’ll advise during the survey and can help you check any relevant London Borough of Sutton guidance. We also ensure electrics are installed safely and appropriately for outdoor use.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering installation quality such as base preparation, liner/reservoir fitting, and structural elements we build. Manufacturer warranties apply separately to pumps, filters and lighting, and we’ll register and explain those for you. The warranty assumes normal use and basic care (for example, keeping filters clear and topping up water levels in hot weather). We’re also available for servicing and seasonal checks.
You can choose from contemporary designs like porcelain rills, stainless-steel blades and minimalist basins, or traditional styles using natural stone, cobbles and wildlife-friendly ponds. We also install pondless features for a cleaner look and simpler maintenance, plus optional LED lighting for evening impact. During design we’ll match colours and textures to your paving and planting, and recommend the right pump and filtration for the sound level and water clarity you want.
