Dreamscape Pond Building Process
Steps to Install a Koi Pond
Step 1. Initial Call
The first step in our process is to talk on the phone. A prospective client will text/email James a few pics or short video of the area where the water feature will go. Then James will call you and discuss your dreams and ideas, along with options (Pond, Pondless, Fountainscape and surrounding Landscaping, along with costs.
Step 2. Onsite Consultation
The second step is to meet together onsite for a walk and talk. James will take into account all factors involved in your space, including the views from inside and outside, accessibility for our equipment and materials, the architecture, privacy, trees and existing landscaping etc. The goal is to find the sweet spot between your wildest dreams and your budget. We will discuss the different types of water features that our clients can have, their costs as well as the surrounding Landscaping options as well. Once we come up with a design and price our clients want, then James will generate a detailed Project Description with each phase individually transparently laid out. This way, our clients can choose what they want to spend on certain phases, like planting, or lighting.
Step 3. Building Water Feature
The DreamTeam will show up on time, every day to install your unique project. We have all materials, rentals and porta potties delivered on day one to help everything go like clockwork. Once your Water Feature is created, we will turn our attention to the surrounding landscaping.
Step 4. Install Landscaping
Some projects need no landscaping at all, but on almost all DreamScape Water Features, we plant within and directly around the water feature. Then we install a new drip system to irrigate all of these plants. On other projects, there are extensive landscaping projects that we install in the outdoor living spaces. These include prefab or custom Arbors & Gazebos, Pathways & Patios, Decks & Fences, Lighting, Landscaping, Irrigation, Veggie Planters, Grading and Drainage.
Step 5. Inspect Pond Equipment and Finishing Touches
If our clients want fish, we let the ecosystem get established for 2 weeks and then we bring fish over to professionally introduce them into the water feature. We also inspect and adjust pond equipment like the pond pump, filters, lighting and irrigation system to make sure everything is working properly. We also adjust the positioning of the pumps, if necessary, to ensure optimal water circulation and filtration.
From the original vision consultation to project completion, the attention to detail we infuse into every project is unmatched. Unlike so many contractors who are focused on getting everything done as fast as possible, DreamScapes takes a different approach. We take pride in our meticulous, methodical approach to every phase of Pond design and installation.
