Water Features in Central Texas
Turn the space beyond your patio into somewhere you want to spend more time. Fountainscapes & Waterfalls designs and builds Aquascape ecosystem ponds, pondless waterfalls, and fountainscapes for select properties in the North Austin, Round Rock, and Temple–Killeen area.
Based in New Ulm, Minnesota. Our Central Texas work consists of scheduled winter travel projects. Your proposal will identify construction costs and applicable travel, hotel, vehicle rental, and equipment-transportation expenses separately.
Limited seasonal availability. Project scope, travel budget, and scheduling are agreed upon before travel arrangements are booked.

Your outdoor space, with a new reason to stay
Water Features Designed Around Your Central Texas Property
Maybe you want a waterfall beside a covered patio in Round Rock, a fountain grouping for a Georgetown courtyard, or a pond that becomes the focus of a backyard in Temple. The starting point is how you want the space to feel—and where you will actually see and hear the water.
We consider views from the house, seating areas, walking routes, available shade, drainage, and equipment access before choosing the feature's layout. A compact courtyard and an open yard call for different approaches to scale, stone placement, and sound.
Our winter construction offering connects Minnesota-based craftsmanship with select Central Texas projects. We plan each trip around an agreed scope and a realistic installation window.
Aquascape-exclusive installations
Ponds, Waterfalls & Fountainscapes for Central Texas
Choose an ecosystem pond for fish, aquatic plants, and a living landscape; a pondless waterfall for moving water without an open pond; or a fountainscape for a distinctive patio or garden focal point. Lighting and compatible fire-and-water features can complete the setting.
Our core systems, components, and construction methods follow the Aquascape approach. Stone and other landscape materials are selected to suit the design and project logistics.
Designed for the way you spend time outside
Make Water Part of Your Central Texas Outdoor Living Space
A water feature should work from your favorite chair, not just from the edge of the pond. We plan its relationship to covered seating, dining spaces, windows, and garden paths so it becomes part of everyday life.
- Sun and exposure: assess the site's shade, wind exposure, planting opportunities, and water-level management needs.
- Stone and surroundings: coordinate the feature with existing masonry, paving, and planting rather than treating it as an isolated addition.
- Ground conditions: evaluate access, grade, drainage, and excavation conditions before finalizing the construction scope.
- Water use: plan a recirculating system with sensible splash control and a practical refill strategy. Recirculation does not eliminate water loss or refill needs.
- Evening enjoyment: position lighting to reveal water and stone from seating areas without overpowering the scene.

Ecosystem Ponds
Create a living focal point with water, stone, fish, and aquatic plants. We plan circulation, filtration, viewing areas, and maintenance access together.
Explore Ecosystem PondsPondless Waterfalls
Bring waterfall sound and movement to a patio or garden without an open pond. Water returns to a concealed reservoir for recirculation.
Explore Pondless WaterfallsFountainscapes
Build a courtyard or patio centerpiece with urns, spheres, bowls, or bubbling boulders. Combine complementary pieces, stone, and lighting for a complete setting.
Explore FountainscapesFire & Water Features
Add a striking gathering-space focal point. Equipment suitability, placement, fuel supply, and applicable installation requirements are reviewed for the project.
Discuss Fire & Water FeaturesLighting
Enjoy water and stone after sunset with lighting planned around the feature, its reflections, and your main viewing areas.

Long-term care begins with accessible components and a clear owner handoff. Texas on-site service is subject to separately confirmed availability; our Minnesota maintenance programs do not automatically extend to Texas.

How Central Texas Travel Projects Work
Fountainscapes & Waterfalls is based in New Ulm, Minnesota. Central Texas installations are planned destination projects during our winter construction season.
Your proposal will separately identify the applicable travel expenses needed to complete the installation. Depending on the transportation plan and project requirements, these may include:
- Round-trip transportation between Minnesota and Central Texas.
- Hotel accommodations during the project.
- Rental vehicle or work-vehicle expenses.
- Transportation or delivery of tools and specialized equipment.
- Additional trips required by the agreed project scope or schedule.
Travel costs are discussed and approved before booking. No travel arrangements will be made until the project scope, travel budget, and installation schedule have been approved. Any later change requiring additional travel expense will be discussed for approval before it is incurred.
When practical, multiple installations may be scheduled during one trip so certain shared travel expenses can be divided among participating clients. Grouped scheduling and savings are not guaranteed.
Construction and travel, clearly separated
Planning Your Central Texas Project Investment
Your construction price reflects the selected feature, dimensions, stone, equipment, lighting, access, excavation conditions, and finishing details. Travel expenses are calculated for the agreed installation plan rather than added as an unexplained flat charge.
During the free phone consultation, we discuss your desired investment range and whether the proposed scope makes sense as a travel project. The written proposal identifies construction and travel costs before you authorize the work.
From first conversation to installation
Our Central Texas Design & Construction Process
1. Free Phone Consultation
Share your address, site photos, inspiration, investment range, and preferred timing. We discuss your goals and whether a Texas travel project is a practical fit.
2. On-Site Design Consultation
Coordinate a site visit when appropriate, potentially with a scheduled Texas consultation trip. Any consultation or associated travel cost is disclosed before the visit is scheduled.
3. Design & Proposal
Review the design, construction scope, project price, payment schedule, and separate travel estimate. Clarify site preparation and ongoing care expectations.
4. Construction
Move into preconstruction after acceptance. Confirm the firm installation date when materials, access, equipment, and other prerequisites are ready, then finalize the approved travel arrangements.
Before you plan your project
Central Texas Water Feature Questions
Are you located in Central Texas?
No. Fountainscapes & Waterfalls is based in New Ulm, Minnesota. We offer scheduled winter destination installations in select Central Texas communities and do not maintain a permanent Texas office.
Will I pay travel and hotel expenses?
Yes. Applicable transportation, lodging, vehicle, and equipment-transportation expenses are identified separately in your proposal and approved before booking. The amount depends on the project and travel plan.
Can travel costs be shared with another project?
When practical, we may group Central Texas installations and divide certain shared travel costs among participating clients. This depends on location, timing, and project readiness, so savings are not guaranteed.
When can you build my water feature?
Texas installations are considered for our winter construction season. We discuss an estimated window during planning and confirm a firm date after the project prerequisites and travel plan are ready. Contact us for current availability.
Do you offer year-round maintenance in Texas?
We do not promise year-round local maintenance or emergency dispatch in Central Texas. We discuss owner care and service expectations before construction. Any future on-site visit requires separate confirmation of availability, scope, and applicable travel costs.
Are the photos on this page Texas projects?
The photos illustrate water feature styles and design possibilities. They are not presented as installations completed in Central Texas.
What should I send before our phone consultation?
Send your property address, contact information, photos of the proposed area and equipment access, and any inspiration images. Include your preferred timing and approximate investment range so we can discuss construction and travel together.
