Our founder and owner Joshua Hardee holds a Bachelors of Business Administration degree, and is a Certified Pool and Hot Tub Operator. Joshua is a Second Generation Pool/Hot Tub industry professional. He has verifiable experience starting at age 9 working as assistant with his father in the industry. As the time passed Joshua would spend his afternoons and summer breaks from school learning and growing in his experience. By age 16 he was performing complex repairs and directing a crew. Fast forward to present day, Joshua is an established veteran in the Pool and Hot Tub industry. He expanded heavily into the Commercial Pool/Hot Tub industry and has pioneered exclusive business contracts and services for our clients that no one else is offering currently in the business. We are available to our customers 24/7 and don't charge emergency rates. We offer top notch services and products at highly competitive prices.

"Joshua, the owner of Down East Pools hired our company to deliver the rock for a residential pools. Aug 2021 (2 separate properties) In one instance we paid for the rock on OUR ACCOUNT. Its October and we are still waiting for the full amount owed. We're trying to recover from COVID and he's taking advantage of us! I went to the residence where the rock was delivered and the property owner said he fired Joshua also. He lied so much! NOT PROFESSIONAL! Do not use him, he doesn't pay his bills."

"It seems landscapers in my area only want big jobs. J&S did not follow through. It was apparent they were not interested in the work. But that is not uncommon to landscapers here. They're location is beautiful and I love their shrubs. But when I shop there I am in my own. No offers of help etc. one time I even had to bother worker on break."

Installing an outdoor water fountain costs $2,700 on average, not including the cost of the unit. Prices range from $150 to $10,650, depending on your location, the type of fountain, size, and accessibility to the site. Self-contained fountains and water features recirculate the water within the unit. Depending on size and features like multi-tiered cascading bowls, they typically cost from $50 to $5,000. More elaborate fountains with waterfalls and ponds can cost from $450 to $10,000 or more.
Every one to three months, you should perform regular fountain maintenance, including draining, cleaning, and rinsing the components of your fountain basin and the pump and tubing to prevent algae and other buildup. Fountain maintenance also includes keeping the appropriate water level and removing debris like leaves, insects, and twigs from the water to avoid clogging the pump. You can also hire a professional landscaper to clean your fountain for around $50 to $150 per month on average.
Most water features do not use a lot of electricity, averaging between 100 and 250 watts per day. The size of the motor can impact electricity usage. To reduce electricity usage, consider using a timer to turn the fountain off at night and when you’re away from your home. Solar power is another way to defray electricity costs after you recoup the cost of installing the solar components.
You can choose several types of fountains to add to your backyard, ranging in size, number of basins, and special water features.
Check out the price ranges of common fountain types:
Birdbath fountains: $40 to $1,100
Cascading fountains: $40 to $2,000
Tiered fountains: $100 to $6,000
Kugel fountains: $150 to $5,000
Glass wall fountains: $100 to $3,000
Consider the pros and cons of installing a water fountain in your backyard:
Pros
Fountains can add beauty to your backyard.
Creates a relaxing space to enjoy in your yard.
Water features can add more value to your home.
Cons
Regular maintenance is necessary.
Upfront and maintenance costs can escalate quickly.
Space may not permit you to install the fountain you want.
