**★★★★★ — Continental Ponds, Feb. 2015**

> Lannie and the employees at Rocky Mountain WaterScape are a true professional pond installation & Maintenance company. Just take a look at their portfolio and you will see you are hiring the best of the best in the pond installation/maintenance business..

**★★★★★ — Julie Ort, April 2014**

> Four years ago, Mark and his team installed a pondless waterfall in our backyard. I interviewed at least 5 different vendors and found that Mark was the most knowledgeable, helpful and honest. His team carved out a 4 drop waterfall  exactly to my specifications and wishes.  He guided me towards a pondless feature after I explained that I wanted a no hassle, easy to care for option. We couldn't be happier. We run our feature year round (even in mutli-day, sub-zero temperatures) ever since it was installed and have never had a problem.
>
> During installation, we thought we might have a leak, but no one could find the source. Mark came out with a shovel and personally investigated. Ultimately he found an issue completely unrelated to the feature or the landscaping project (it was an issue with our sprinkler system). He really stood by his work. The feature is gorgeous and still running strong 4 years later. The birds love to bathe in it, and we thoroughly enjoy sitting on our deck in the suburbs and feeling like we are sitting stream side in the mountains. His crew did a great job incorporating natural elements (rocks, logs, water plants and the layout of our backyard) and lighting to make the feature look natural. We are very pleased.

**★ — keirar, Jan. 2014**

> We recently had this company clean our pond and then bill us 40% more than quoted.  They also left the auto-fill running which caused our pond to overflow and flood our neighbors back yard (we were out of town and my mom was taking care of our house) which will most certainly cause us to have a huge water bill!  The owner then said his guys told my mom to babysit the fill when the guy doing the work had already acknowledged to me a couple days later that the new guy with him had made the mistake when putting things back together.  I would steer clear of this operation!!

**★★★★★ — lawrenceking, June 2013**

> Mark and his team are absolutely top-notch professionals.  I have owned a pond and waterfeature at my Denver - Golden foothills for over 13 years.  For the last half of that period, Rocky Mountain WaterScape has taken care of the property with high expertise.  My initial referral was to repair a hugely damaged pond liner with a very poorly designed large pond.  After careful review and personal inspection on several occasions, Mark suggested a remake as a pondless waterfeature.  Mind you, this was a very, substantial task.  When RMWS showed up, they brought a large and talented team, substantial materials and literally transformed my property at a cost of about a fourth of a pond remake.  Every year, Mark's team (usually the dedicated Jeff and a teammate) restart my feature at the beginning of the season in an expert way. This is an industry with many, many casual to the work companies; they won't be there down the road and shortcuts and cheap prices will be a super false savings.
>
> I enthusiastically and wholeheartedly endorse and recommend Mark, Lannie, Jeff and the many employees at RMWS. They are rare talents who fairly price their work, and carefully manage their customers' needs.

**Comment from Rocky Mountain WaterScape:**

Why not get creative and run a water feature through those walls? With proper underwater lighting and aquatic plants, a drab wall can become the focal point of a landscape! They can be as simple as a small pondless waterfall or as complex and elegant as a 50' stream running down a hillside and ending in a koi pond!

  - Description: For those of you who have a small backyard, love garden art, or are considering adding another water feature to your landscape, perhaps a small fountain like this will help. They use only a little water (can be hooked up to an autofill from your irrigation system), use a small pump that will use only a little electricity, and are easy to install. Three great reasons to consider this a good choice!

## Community Q&A

**Q: Beautiful.  Can I ask what type and brand of pump did you use?  Inline** *(in Photo Questions)*

Beautiful.  What type and brand pump did you use?  Inline or submersible?

A: It is a submersible Aquascape 5PL (4800 gph) with a manifold that splits the flow into three 1” pipes that feed the wires.  Thanks for your interest!

**Q: What kind of lilies are those?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: They are a variety of hardy lilies and I cannot tell from the picture which they are.  This picture was taken several years ago at a customers home.  In the front is a lotus that is blooming with a white blossom.

**Q: Love the kalidescope! Did you build it? Where can I buy one?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: We did not build it, an artist did and we do sell them for $4500.  Are  you interested in purchasing one?

**Q: Love the children statues! Where can they be found? Love this!** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Good question, susanpfund, we don't know as the homeowner had the statues when we built the feature and we just added them.  Am sorry we couldn't answer your question!
