Free Pond Design Estimates are Gladly Given Over the Phone. We simply need to know the dimensions of what size pond or pondless waterfall you are considering. We can give you a close figure of what your waterscapes will cost to build by square footage alone.
Many people are very curious about pond pricing. This page will explain all about the price for ponds or pondless water features. Remember our water features come with warranties and we also offer follow up services.
In most cases we are 25 to 40% less expensive than the competition.
This post about prices needs to be read.
The price of a pond depends on many factors such as configuration, size, and optional accessories such as decks, docks, or landscaping. Your yard may also have some special needs to be addressed such as drainage issues, underground utilities or sprinkler lines that need to be capped and moved. The prices below are examples of a finished pond that are constructed with underlayment, liner , and boulders and stones. The price also includes all the standard equipment such as the pump, tubing, skimmer, waterfall filter box and (at minimum) one submersible low-voltage light. We also treat each new pond with the start-up treatments and DE-clorinator to be ready for fish. The pond is turn-key all that is needed is ongoing bacteria and barley treatments. Additional prices for ponds will depend on how natural you want your pond to look. Plants in an out of the pond is what makes it look natural and keeps the water crystal clear.
All Ponds Are Turn-Key
All ponds come with everything for the pond. The pond or pondless water feature will function 100%, have plants & fish plus the first treatment. You will have to furnish ongoing treatments or we can bring you 6 months or a year supply. You can upgrade to the landscape package to complete your backyard paradise.
The addition of a stream between the pond and waterfall is around $100.00 a foot Width up to 4 feet
Pond prices based on average 2 foot depth & 2 foot waterfall into pond. Price is also based on how much rock is encountered when digging less rock no additional charges.
All these prices are ballpark only. Depending on what your pond requires will really dictate the price. These prices also reflect machine dug. Hand digging increases a lot. In some cases if access is not available we might turn down the job. If the wheelbarrow won’t fit in your gate then neither will we. Pond dimensions are actually based on liner size not surface size. Our liner is sold in 10 foot increments. 10 x 10 liner is our first size and can go up to 50 x 50 ( machine moved ). Just remember, ultimately money is not what motivates me it is the pleasure I get from building them. I have been on every job since I started this company and plan to be on every job after. I have built every water feature on this website and made every pond on my YouTube channel ( goproponds).

Recommended pond bogs prices for Ponds 2-5 , includes the bog addition and aquatic plants that are needed.
