Fountain Builds

Every fountain starts as a pile of panels.

Each large fountain is cast in sections in the shop, hauled to the site, and assembled in place: footing, walls, floor, plumbing, pump, and finish. Here is how a few of them came together.

Three tiers, four lions

The Majestic, with Lions

The newest Majestic: a three-tier ball-top fountain with four sitting lions on pedestal blocks, set on a stone-walled circle. Curved pool sections, pedestal blocks, tier bowls, and column panels were all cast in the shop, cured, then hauled out and assembled in place before the first fill.

The Chateau

A round paneled basin built from cast wall panels, set in the center of a driveway circle. Panels braced, floor laid and poured over rebar, plumbing stubbed in, then finished in a warm cream with a dark cap and a stacked stone ring.

The Bastille

A custom French village style fountain, an octagonal basin around a center pillar with copper taps. Every panel cast in the shop, cured, hauled to the site, and assembled in place before the first fill.

How It’s Built

From simple materials to statement pieces.

From the first dig to the final fill, we handle the whole install, right in your yard. Here’s a quick look at how a fountain comes together.

Dig & Grade
01

Dig & Grade

It starts with the site. Chris brings in the equipment, digs out the spot, and grades it so everything sits level for years to come.

Set the Fountain
02

Set the Fountain

A solid base goes in, the basin is sealed and plumbed, then the fountain is placed and leveled piece by piece with natural stone around the pool's edge.

Fill & Finish
03

Fill & Finish

A final finish coat on the pool, water in, pump on — settled into its new home and ready for years of enjoyment.

Finishes & Color Matching

Any finish, matched to your space.

The same piece can go deep black, weathered white, or anywhere in between. Chris can color match a finish to your home, stone, or existing pieces. Just give him a call and work it out together.
