Why You Should Hire Someone To Build a Waterfall Feature for a Backyard in Baxter Estates, NY

Everyone wants their backyard to look beautiful. It’s your sanctuary; you should make it relaxing and perfect for you. One of the best ways to do this is to create a waterfall feature for a backyard in Nassau County.

However, should you do the job on your own, or should you hire someone to help? Backyard waterfalls in Baxter Estates, NY are beautiful, but a lot can go wrong if you DIY a small pond. There’s a lot more at stake than aesthetics, though.

A lot goes into creating a garden pond. After all, you can’t make a water feature with just a garden hose, some shallow water, and a flat stone. You have to dig a decent-sized hole, know how to work electronics, and it takes time to get it perfect.

If you want a gorgeous waterfall design, you need to call Scott Anderson Design. We can create anything from a smaller waterfall to a grand water garden. If you want to turn your Nassau County backyard into a relaxing oasis, read about why you should hire Scott Anderson Design to build a waterfall feature for a backyard today.

A Lot of Electrical Work Goes Into It

Backyard waterfalls are beautiful to look at, so you may not realize all the technology that lies behind them. After all, you have to do more than lay down a pond liner and fill the pond to create a gorgeous garden pond.

If you want a working outdoor waterfall in your Baxter Estates, NY backyard, you need to invest in electrical and plumbing work. If you don’t have experience working as an electrician, you may struggle to do the job right. Plus, you don’t want to mix loose electrical lines with water.

Therefore, you should always call a pro when you want to build a pond with water moving. Also, it will cost a lot of money to do the job, mess up, then have to call someone to fix it. That’s especially true if you have already finished setting up your waterfall or pond. You have to place the electrical cords pretty far down, so you’ll most likely have to take everything apart if you didn’t do the job right the first time.

And a Lot of Digging

As we touched upon, you need to do a lot of digging to create a pond in Nassau County. While the result is gorgeous, do you want to spend hours, even days, digging a hole for it? That’s why you should leave this job to the professionals. They have the right tools and the experience to do the job well.

Plus, you have to dig evenly. Otherwise, you’ll have a lopsided pond. Even flexible liners can’t save you in this case. Show your backyard some respect by choosing the experts for your backyard waterfalls or pond designs.

You Can Get the Job Done Quicker

Professionals like us at Scott Anderson Design have the best tools and experience at our disposal to get the job done quickly. It can take you weeks, even months of work, to get your waterfall design looking perfect. Think of how many times you may have to go over the sides of the pond and reposition the liner.

When you don’t know what you’re doing, it will take longer to see the results you want, and it will take more effort. You can’t have a garden designed to perfection if you’ve never designed one before.

Higher Quality

Finally, you get the best, highest quality job when you choose to go with a professional. Creating a backyard waterfall or garden pond isn’t easy; there are a lot of factors you need to consider. While you may have an image of what you want it to look like in your head, it may not turn out the way you want it to.

However, you take away that guesswork when you hire someone to build a waterfall feature for a backyard. While you have to pay more upfront, you’ll save money by having the job done right the first time. Besides, you’ll awe your friends with your gorgeous backyard.

Some information about Baxter Estates, NY

Baxter Estates is a village in Nassau County, on the North Shore of Long Island, in New York, United States. It is considered part of the Greater Port Washington area, which is anchored by Port Washington. The population was 999 at the 2010 census.

The Village of Baxter Estates was incorporated in 1931. Baxter Estates owes much of its history to the homestead settlement of ‘Cow Neck’ built in 1673 by John Betts and Robert Hutchings, which still stands on its original site at the corner of Central Drive and Shore Road, overlooking Manhasset Bay. This property was purchased around 1741 by Oliver Baxter, and maps of the time show that an entire wigwam village, belonging to the Matinecock Indians, may have been located on Baxter’s land.

The Baxters, who were shipbuilders, whalers and sea captains, retained the property until the 19th century. Hessian troops were quartered in the Baxter House during the Revolutionary War, and in 1895 the first library of Port Washington met in the parlor of the Baxter house. The residence was designated as a historic building. The owner, Sabrina Wu, was in the process of submitting plans to demolish the landmarked home when a massive blaze broke out, heavily damaging the home on February 5, 2017. The cause of the fire was not determined.

The village is named for the Baxter family, which owned a significant amount of land in the area.
