This Backyard Waterfall project included installation of a pondless waterfall approximately 15' in length on a sloped bank at the area next to the existing pool. The backyard waterfall cascades down the existing embankment. There is still retaining wall work in progress as of this video and pictures being shot. Future landscaping will be installed once surrounding hardscaping has been complete. Rocks and Boulders for this project were chosen and supplied by home owner. This pondless waterfall project was installed in Mohnton (Berks County), PA.
Pondless Waterfalls are simply a re-circulating waterfall and/or stream without the presence of a pond. You can enjoy the sight and sound of running water without the maintenance of a pond.
The waterfall is undoubtedly the most beautiful and favored feature in a water garden. If space is lacking in your yard or you have safety concerns with a pond, go Pondless! The name basically explains it all. It’s a waterfall and stream, without the pond. So why would you want a waterfall without a pond? The truth is that a Pondless Waterfall isn’t for everyone, but it can be a great alternative for someone who isn’t quite sure if a pond is right for their family.
Because there is no pool of water, a Pondless Waterfall is a great option if you are concerned about safety issues associated with a traditional pond.
Cost can be a big factor when considering the type of pond you want to build. In most cases, the price of a Pondless waterfall will be less than a pond, because there is less labor involved, as well as less rock and materials. Operating costs are also less. Because you’re not dealing with an established ecosystem, it’s not necessary to run the pump 24/7.
The small size of the Pondless Waterfall means you can build and enjoy a beautiful waterfall anywhere in you yard. Taking care of your Pondless Waterfall is easy. Filling the reservoir every few weeks to compensate for water loss because of evaporation is all that’s required.
Perhaps the best part of the Pondless Waterfall is the possibility for the future. If you change your mind later, wishing you’d build a pond, that’s ok! If you leave enough room around the base of the waterfall, it’s easy to add a pond onto a Pondless Waterfall.
A Pondless Waterfall works much like a regular pond. The hole, deeper than a normal pond, is dug then lined with rock and gravel, and filled with water. The water is then circulated from beneath the rocks and gravel by a pump that sits on the bottom, inside a Snorkel™ Vault and Centipede™ Module. A pipe runs from there up to a BioFalls Filter and into an overflowing waterfall, where it falls back into the reservoir. Since the water level never pools above the level of the rock and gravel fill, it give the appearance of a waterfall without a pond, when in fact, the “pond” is there but not visible.
The Pondless Waterfall has made many water-lovers who were previously unable to indulge in the sweet sounds of falling water, very happy. It’s a great alternative for those who are trying to get their feet wet, or looking to fit a little bit of paradise into their own backyard. In other words, when all else fails … go Pondless!

This remodel transformed this bathroom from basic and neutral in design to elegant and stunning. The footprint didn't change for the tub, shower, and cabinets, but all of those, plus flooring, tile, selections, fixtures, and lighting were all updated to create the incredibly beautiful oasis that our homeowner envisioned. Especially gorgeous is the shower tile and picture frame insert. Wow!

This Master Suite while being spacious, was poorly planned in the beginning. Master Bathroom and Walk-in Closet were small relative to the Bedroom size. Bathroom, being a maze of turns, offered a poor traffic flow. It only had basic fixtures and was never decorated to look like a living space. Geometry of the Bedroom (long and stretched) allowed to use some of its' space to build two Walk-in Closets while the original walk-in closet space was added to adjacent Bathroom. New Master Bathroom layout has changed dramatically (walls, door, and fixtures moved). The new space was carefully planned for two people using it at once with no sacrifice to the comfort. New shower is huge. It stretches wall-to-wall and has a full length bench with granite top. Frame-less glass enclosure partially sits on the tub platform (it is a drop-in tub). Tiles on the walls and on the floor are of the same collection. Elegant, time-less, neutral - something you would enjoy for years. This selection leaves no boundaries on the decor. Beautiful open shelf vanity cabinet was actually made by the Home Owners! They both were actively involved into the process of creating their new oasis. New Master Suite has two separate Walk-in Closets. Linen closet which used to be a part of the Bathroom, is now accessible from the hallway. Master Bedroom, still big, looks stunning. It reflects taste and life style of the Home Owners and blends in with the overall style of the House. Some of the furniture in the Bedroom was also made by the Home Owners.

Kitchen Designs by Ken Kelly, Inc. (CKD, CBD, CR)
For this Vermont home, the family wanted an open kitchen concept where they could have a fire crackling in the hearth while they cook and watch kids play board games at the dining table. They knew they wanted a kitchen in the country that would draw people together. Depending on the season, one could look out and see an ever-changing view from the oversized glass windows. Imagine a snowy winter wonderland, brilliant fall foliage, or summer trees so lush and green you feel like you are in a treehouse. That’s what we wanted to capture in their kitchen. We decided to add a beadboard ceiling with black accent beams for a cottage appeal, which matched the open beams in the rest of the house. We varied the cabinetry colors (grey and white), countertop surfaces (walnut butcher block and white quartz) and textures (mixed metals and glazed wood) to give the space character and height. The cabinet’s millwork includes a coffee bar, wet bar, and bead detailing around the cabinet frame with a white finish with hand-painted brushstrokes for a classic and timeless look. High-end appliances include a column refrigerator/freezer, gas range, steam convection oven, microwave, and a wet bar with wine refrigeration and refrigerator drawers.

This is a great little house that has used back to basics construction methods that utilise ancient building techniques to help be a solution for the modern problem of climate change. The brief was a challenging one; build a beautiful, sustainable home for a family in a short period of time with a very small budget. The brief was fulfilled through the use of efficient design, second hand materials and the use of cob (earth) wall construction - which cost next to nothing but allowed for sculptural beauty. An amazing effort from a determined client then turned that into reality.

Mrs. Deighan loved to cook, but hated her kitchen.
It was nonfunctional, inefficient, and an eyesore.
The sink was in the corner under low cabinets. The awkwardly placed fridge made it impractical for the entire family to be working together.
And that was a big deal.
She wanted a beautiful place to cook and entertain.
Besides the cramped space, the old, brown plywood cabinets were falling apart.
Because the cabinets were low, under-cabinet lighting was useless.
The kitchen was dark.
The previous owners had updated the flooring, but only by putting uglier tiles over the old vinyl.
And the ceiling had a leak stain.
It was time for a big change.
The Deighan's called Amos from ALL Renovation & Design.
Amos’s many successful remodeling projects done for them over the years had forged a friendship that made him the obvious contractor of choice.
Amos sat down with them and asked them to make a dream kitchen list.
If budget were of no concern, what would the space look like?
Once the Deighan's had their list, Amos helped them to evaluate each investment, taking into consideration the age and value of the home.
Then Amos presented a plan that fit perfectly in the Deighan's budget.
The basic U-shaped kitchen layout stayed the same.
Modern, creamy white custom cabinets replaced the dark plywood cabinets.
The fridge moved to make space for more cabinets.
The biggest challenge was moving the laundry room wall a few feet.
Moving it was necessary to add more space, but, since the wall was load-bearing, moving it required extra attention.
It was worth it.
Extra space allowed the counter to extend and the sink to move.
After the hard work ended, the reason for the transformation became reality.
Now “we can have the whole family in there comfortably and working together,” Mrs. Deighan said.
She loves her kitchen.
Especially the windowed cabinets that show off her fiestaware.
And when you see the beautiful St. Cecilia granite countertops, with Milstone Sari porcelain mosaic tile backsplash, maple flat-panel cabinets with under-cabinet lighting, and all new appliances including a double oven, you will see why she does.
Curbio Home Improvement
While a complete remodel isn’t always necessary, it is a great option for tired listings. Realtors® partner with Curbio to determine if a pre-listing refresh or remodel will achieve listing and home sale goals.
For older homes with nonsensical layouts to homes in disrepair that need a complete rehab, Curbio’s got you covered with turnkey, efficient home improvements. The best part is that sellers don’t pay a cent until closing. This allows home sellers to make the updates necessary to get their homes sold without sacrificing some of the value and equity that they’ve spent years building.
Remodels require more extensive work than a simple refresh or basic repairs and touch-ups. They typically require permits and can include layout changes, new cabinets, bathroom additions, and rerouting plumbing and electric systems. Below are some of the individual services that might be included in a pre-listing remodel.

This project started with a small leak in the sink wall. The homeowners wanted to change some of the basic bath elements while keeping their vintage floor, tub and medicine cabinet in place. We removed an unneeded door in order to gain storage space along the tub wall. Collaborative design by the homeowners and Greg Schmidt. Photos by Greg Schmidt.

A warm winter night by the side of your fireplace and a cup of hot chocolate or coffee, isn't it a combination we all need the most? Well of course. We all are probably waiting to escape this sweaty, patchy summer and just want to sleep wrapping our favorite blanket. Winters might be grey and lifeless but you cannot deny the fun of winter season. People with fire furnace or fire place are the luckiest one. As for providing warmth at the winter nights nothing can bit the warming process provided by the fire places. Not only it will be providing the warmth but also helps in trapping the warmness throughout the day. Hence in this artifact let's talk about fireplace and its uses, but that's not all. Eventually we are going to talk about gas fireplaces which will be much conventional for your usage.
About fireplace
Thought we all are imposing more or less idea about fireplace; in this stanza let's briefly explain about fireplace. A fireplace is a structure made up of stone, brick, and metal and mainly designed to contain fire or to light fire. Fireplaces are generally used in terms of creating an ambiance for relaxing as well as for heating a room. But now modern fireplaces vary in heat efficiently depending upon the designs as well as the structure. While coming to the structure there will be one square place to light the fire with an adjusting chimney from where the flue can exhaust or escape leaving your room warm enough. This is the interior portion of a fire place. Now coming to the exterior portion and it is mainly made up of corbelled brick crown which will be working as a barrier in terms of snowflakes or rain water to drip down through the chimney and stop the fire. A cap or a hood will be doing the same job and will be keeping out the rainwater from the exterior portion. But there will be much problem in terms of chimney made up of metal tiles or flue tiles. Generally such devices soaks up the rain water and will be making the interior portion of a fireplace damp. Hence lighting up a fire would be problem and providing warmth. But don't worry to save you from this greater situation we are presenting the gas fireplace. This act just like the traditional brick one and provide the much needed warmth at the shivering winter nights.
Problems and how to escape that
First of all due to lack of maintenance of gas fireplace carbon begins to build up on the inside surface of the fireplace. This progressively produces a whitish cast which may obstruct the view of the fireplace. Hence if it will be neglected for a extended period of time then at times it will be impossible to remove. Once reaching at such point you need to change the glass of your fireplace. For more details you can click this link at http://www.accuservheating.com/fireplace-maintenance. Hence it is best to seek help from a professional service provider and also seek servicing in terms of every 1 year at least to avoid such possibilities.

Sensational Surroundings
Our very busy clients turned to us to help them remodel the kitchen in their twenty year old home. While the layout was good, and the cherry cabinetry looked fine on the the surface, they wanted to make some important updates. The cabinets were starting to show some wear and tear and did not have any of the bells and whistles they desired (soft close drawers, pull-out shelves, a wine rack, and file drawer storage). Dated laminate countertops, an inefficient island, lack of a suitable backsplash material, and a need to replace appliances led them to this remodel. While the kitchen was basically gutted, we did not need to reconfigure the space other than making a slight change to the island. We enjoyed helping our clients select creamy maple cabinets, a gorgeous Quartz counter by Cambria, neutral stone backsplash in a linear pattern, and striking dark hardwood floors throughout the first floor. Finishing touches included cabinet pulls, lighting (we especially love the oversize lantern above the table), and custom valances and chair cushions. Now, the kitchen is not only functional but beautiful!

There are so many design elements to this kitchen, I almost don’t know where to start. Bright and airy with crisp clean white cabinets, the kitchen is open and welcoming. Still crisp but gently contrasting, the stainless steel appliance add depth amid the white. To keep this kitchen warm, natural oak covers the floors and a toasted wheat color washes the walls. And then there is the architectural elements. You know. That post and beam in the middle of the room. It’s the center of attention.
When you walk into a room your eyes roam around, establishing the size and shape of the room as your feet take you forward. From the front door of this home straight ahead you encountered this wall. The dining area to the right gives you a glimpse of things to come. Where there is a dining room you will usually find a kitchen.
The architecture of years gone by consistently hides the kitchen, the heart of the home, behind walls. I sympathize with my Mom, and all the other Moms, who have had to spend so much time tucked into a tight kitchen, away from the family. This wall had to go, but it was structural. We needed its support but not its bulk.
So we got rid of the bulk and only the bulk. Instead of a wall we have a post and beam, offering all of the structure we need. We could have installed a huge steel beam and reconfigure the joists to upset the beam, but why? The small beam and post add an incredible architectural element. It’s turning lemons into lemon, we simply made the most of what we had. It may be functional but it’s so fantastic. It looks like we created the effect just for the drama.
The original kitchen may have had a working triangle and some counter space, but it was fairly small, with each area only a step or two away. The dark cabinets made the space feel even smaller and the butcher block patterned laminate counter tops were very dated. The appliances were feeling their age as well, from a coil burner electric stove to a top freezer refrigerator. To keep this kitchen within its space, a half wall separated it from the dining area.
With the wall gone we borrowed some space from the living room and extended what was a U shaped kitchen into an L. At the living room window we start our new kitchen. We kept a small part of the wall to support the other end of our decorative beam. Sandwiched between a large pantry and our new French door refrigerator, the wall disappears. With our new open floor plan a sizable island was in order.
We split our cooking areas and installed a continuous grill gas cooktop into the island. A sleek island hood takes care of exhaust and adds an extra element to our architectural feature. Under the cooktop we added over-sized drawers for pots and pan storage. The frameless cabinets from New River Cabinetry are maple, painted white, with the Herndon door style. With the cooktop safely nestled into our island, we still had to add an oven.
We used the space where the old range sat for a large single oven of stainless steel and glass. If it worked for one, why not two? We created a home for a microwave in the wall cabinets. It’s perfect for heating leftovers so close to the refrigerator.
An important consideration for hot spots in your kitchen is landing zones. Each of our cooking areas have generous landing zones, one on each side of the cooktop and an entire counter area above or below the ovens, depending on which one you’re using.
We wanted to give the sink area more room so the half wall had to come out. We moved the trash and recycle cans into a cabinet, removed the heavy soffits and kept the sink under the window.
With that little bit of extra space we were able to add a larger cabinet above the dishwasher and slide it all down. This used to be where the carpeting met the vinyl floor, but all of it is gone. Long oak planks eliminate that final divide between the kitchen and the dining area, while adding visual length to the area. White wall cabinets on each side of the window reflect the sunlight for a brighter view.
With all of the darker cabinetry the backsplash walls had been painted white. Even still, there was a darkness in the corners and it wasn’t very exciting. We wanted to add visual interest and reflect the new under-cabinet lighting, eliminating the shadows in this corner.
With 1″x 2″ Arabescato Honed marble mosaics and those under-cabinet lights, we achieved the perfect balance. The marble has subtle swirls in gray and beige on a clean white background, but with the honed finish the light is softly reflected instead of glaring. For granite, we chose the soft gray tones of Luna Pearl. The speckles of gray and beige are a gentle contrast to the white cabinets and emulate the color of the stainless steel.
Between the carpet, red half wall, dark railing and dated light fixture, the dining area felt tired. Since the kitchen lacked sufficient storage, a large utility cabinet crowded the table space without adding any decorate elements.
Although it didn’t get any bigger, our dining area feels fresher and more open too. With the oak flooring joining the area to the rest of our space and the toasted wheat on the walls, the white table and chairs compliment the cabinetry while contrasting the warmer colors. We replaced the chandelier with recessed lighting and changed that railing too.
With our new open floor plan, we ended up with a fairly open area in between our foyer closet and the living room window. Not one to miss an opportunity, we filled the space with a multi-functional work space.
With the sunlight streaming in this bright corner works for anything this family needs.
There’s plenty of space for a chair under this large desk drawer. A closed cabinet below, glass doors above and lots of open shelving let you store and or showcase your belongings. We added a lite area at the top to keep away the darker corners.
The transformation is complete. This kitchen and all of its features are truly the center of attention in this home.
