Where stone meets water

Water features are specialty work, and they are some of the projects we are proudest of. Our craftsmen hand-select and hand-place every stone, so each waterfall, garden pool, and fountain is a one-of-a-kind creation rather than an assembled kit.

Each water feature is designed from the ground up using hand-selected stone and engineered flow systems. The sight and sound of moving water can turn an ordinary corner of a yard or courtyard into a private retreat.

A water feature works best when it belongs to the landscape around it. We often build them as part of a larger landscape design, with planting and stonework planned together, and you can see the proposed feature on photographs of your own property before we begin.
