Three counties, one crew

Mecklenburg County is Charlotte and the towns along the southern half of Lake Norman, from in-town yards under old oaks to newer subdivisions in full sun.

Gaston County is home. Belmont, Mount Holly, Gastonia and the towns west toward Kings Mountain share red clay and, in places, rock at a shallow depth.

York County, South Carolina covers the southern shore of Lake Wylie, Tega Cay and Clover, where planned lake communities sit next to larger rural lots.

Soil and climate are much the same across all three. The lots are not, which is why each area below has its own page.

Charlotte. Ponds built under mature oak canopy in neighborhoods like Myers Park, Dilworth and Eastover, where roots, leaves and tight side-yard access shape the design.

Belmont. Our home base since 2002, along with Cramerton and McAdenville, and the town where you'll find “The Resort,” our recreational swim pond, and two waterfall restorations.

Gastonia. Pond repair and pondless waterfalls for Gaston County lots where rock can sit close to the surface, including Dallas, Bessemer City, Kings Mountain and Lowell.

Mount Holly. Koi ponds and natural streams for a river town on the Catawba, plus Stanley and the wooded lots near Mountain Island Lake.

Lake Norman. Natural swim ponds for lake-lot owners in Cornelius, Huntersville, Mooresville, Denver and Sherrills Ford who want clear, private water steps from the house.

Lake Wylie. Pond builds and rebuilds on both sides of the state line, from Tega Cay lake communities to acreage around Clover, SC.

Pricing

Same prices in every town

Our package prices don't change by zip code. A 6x8 koi pond with a waterfall starts at $9,195 in Ballantyne and in Bessemer City. Pondless waterfalls start at $6,000 and fountains at $5,935. Electrical is not included, and financing is available. Swim ponds are priced to the site during a design conversation. See every package on our pricing page.

What can change the cost is the lot itself: rock in the dig, difficult access or a long electrical run.
