Superlative Water Garden Companies in the Tampa Bay Area

As you'd suspect, the Florida area is swarming with landscapers and all sorts of contractors with the constant building boom going on along its coasts. There's a lot of interest in water gardening there to, an interest that is really sweeping the entire country. Around the Tampa Bay area there are several well-respected contracting companies that have done extensive work in the general vicinity and beyond. I included a company out of Tallahassee too, because of the magnificent pictures they have put on their web site. People can browse these and see just how advanced the once sole feature of a pond has been rapidly expanded to include some striking additional options.

Aquafeatures in Tallahassee has something I haven't seen at most of the aqua suppliers in my town-"pondless" waterfalls. Just a few years ago all anyone could have built was a nice pond, but that's changed. The pictures on this very interesting web site make me want to run down there right now and order one. These contractors can make waterfalls, streams, ponds and all sorts of water gardens. The site is evidently new and doesn't have any links for ordering or browsing pictures and history yet, but customers can just call Buz Ireland at 850-562-5797 to get directions and obtain some more details about their services. People in Tallahassee will be able to just run down and browse, but I'd call first.

Rock Castles actually has two locations: one in Kentucky and the other in Avon Park, FL, near Tampa. This company constructs all kinds of water features: "We construct waterfalls, pondless waterfalls, streams, ponds up to around 5 to 20 feet wide and long as you have room for." They do give free estimates in the Carolinas, Kentucky and Tennessee with pond and waterfall features exceeding $4,000, but anyone in the Tampa area should certainly try to see the local business and compare their services and pricing with the other water garden landscapers. Contact them at 863-257-4068.
