"We met Christian at the HVCC garden show and his pond & waterfall displays, and enthusiasm, caught our attention. When he came to our yard for an appraisal he immediately had an eye for exactly the best location for a waterfall feature along our garden fencescaping. His recommendations sounded intriguing so we trusted his vision. When Christian showed up for the job he had all the building materials he needed, as well as boulders, rocks and stones of all sizes organized by size in pails. He outlined his plans and convinced me to allow the waterfall feature to take a little more space than I originally had in mind. I'm so glad he did....if anything, in retrospect, I wish I had agreed to make it even bigger! I needed to dig out and relocate a whole section of our garden perennials in preparation for the project, but it was worth all the effort. Oh my gosh, what amazing work Christian does! In two days (!) he transformed this huge dug out crater of dirt into a natural looking landscape of banked boulders, tiered waterfalls, and little wells of water among "spilling" rocks and stones. He left pockets of dirt for us to personalize with plants and flowers and even finished the details with driftwood and moss he had foraged from woods and riverbanks. Each of the three waterfalls are uplighted which makes for a mystical look at night. It seems the happier we were with the ongoing results the more ideas he came up with to please us. I start and end each day with a cup of coffee by our waterscape, relaxing with the sounds of a running mountain stream. We are beyond thrilled with the results! Christian is professional, hard working, and responsive to your questions and concerns, and is only a phone call away when you need a little advice about maintenance. In a time of questionable commitment from contractors it has been a pleasure to have one who lives up to your trust in every possible way. Artists use their favorite medium to create art.....paint, marble, wood, fabric. Christian creates art from dirt and stone and his vision transforms into a masterpiece. Thank you, Christian. You are an amazing artist."

I have worked professionally installing chain-link and wooden fencing for agricultural, municipal, and residential applications.

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.
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
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.
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
