Doug Very cute but trying to stat with gravel and existing. I want a fountain on pad against fence-any ideas? Need to purchase...

This is an easy to make “trim” or an edge to a gravel driveway or a side of the house. Instead of these tall plants from the neighbors, imagine a fence or a wall. The bright contrast with (in this case) white rocks and plants. Next to artificial turf, with black planters, would look great also, if you add concrete stepping stones.

Hi, is there electricity over near the pad along the fence? You’ll need that for the fountain.

I am not sure if you have thought through all the issues here.

You will need power or a place with all day sun for a panel with a solar powered pump, though a solar pump won’t run in the evenings which may rule that out.

You will also need some type of reasonably close water source to refill and clean it out.

The fountain will need to be low splash or the water on the wood fence will cause staining.

How large is the current pad? Usually any foundation work or underpinnings are done after the fountain is chosen rather than before, somI am not sure this will suit for a couple of reasons. Is there a chance you would consider enlarging it to move the fountain away from the fence to decrease the issue of possible staining on windy days?

Most self contained fountains I have seen have an underground reservoir from which the water recirculates. Have you seen fountains that somehow have the reservoir above ground?

Yes I want a self contained fountain and will have power over there and already have a pad. I can send measurements if helpful?

Where will the water reservoir go if there is already a pad?
