When considering the design of a waterfall, careful evaluation of the site is necessary. The surrounding topography must relate to the water feature. How would water flow through the property naturally? Or, what do we need to change to make a waterfall look as though it flows through the property naturally?

Well thought out landscape design usually starts with the design and engineering of retaining components, before we begin construction of your water landscape. A gentle slope is a great opportunity for building a natural setting. Retaining walls on Long Island and the tri-state area offer natural looking solutions to slopes and grades by incorporating rock walls, ledges and waterfalls around swimming pools and koi ponds.

Emil Kreye & Son takes swimming pool design to a new level in the New York area with custom naturalistic pools that incorporate water features and rock gardens. Adding a waterfall to a swimming pool not only increases the value of your property, it enhances your family's enjoyment and relaxation. The beauty of an artfully crafted rock garden and a cascading waterfall can soften the edges of a pool to make it part of the landscape. The sight and sounds of water flowing into a swimming pool is a unique feature that will enhance your family's relaxing poolside experience.
