Introduction

A well-designed water feature — whether a small fountain, a backyard pond, a stream, or a naturalistic ecosystem — brings life to your landscape. Water features draw the eye, create a sense of calm, attract wildlife, and add an element of luxury and sophistication that few other landscape improvements can match.

Millburn Landscape has been designing and building custom water features across Salt Lake City and the Wasatch Front for two decades. We handle everything from simple birdbath installations to complex pond ecosystems with proper aeration, filtration, and aquatic plantings. Each project is designed specifically for your site, your home, and your vision.

About This Service

Water features can be simple or complex depending on your goals and budget. A solar-powered fountain or small recirculating waterfall can be installed in a few hours. A natural-looking pond with marginal plantings, a stream feature, and proper ecosystem balance requires more thoughtful design and installation.

We design water features that look natural and function reliably. This means proper grading, appropriate liner selection (flexible EPDM, preformed basins, or concrete depending on the application), correct pump sizing and plumbing, proper aeration and filtration for fish-bearing ponds, and thoughtful plant selection that thrives in wet conditions.

Most residential water features are best enjoyed when viewed from the house or primary entertaining area. We position water features accordingly and ensure water sounds are pleasant and visible from the spaces where you’ll spend the most time.

Our Process

We assess your site, discuss your vision and budget, and design a water feature that works for your specific location and goals. We explain all options: recirculating versus true biological ponds, stocking with fish, plant choices, maintenance requirements, and everything else you need to know to make an informed decision.

Installation includes proper grading, liner installation, plumbing and pump setup, aquatic plantings (if desired), edge finishing with stone or plantings, and thorough testing and water circulation setup.
