At Long Island Elite Landscaping, we specialize in pond building and aquascaping, transforming outdoor spaces into tranquil, natural retreats. Whether you’re dreaming of a decorative koi pond, a wildlife-friendly water garden, or a sleek modern water feature, our experienced team will guide you through every step—from design to installation.
Choosing the Right Pond Liner
One of the biggest decisions in any pond building project is selecting the right liner. We offer three primary options, each with its own benefits:
Flexible Liners – The most versatile and cost-effective choice. These liners conform to any shape or depth, making them ideal for custom ponds with natural contours.
Preformed Liners – Made from rigid plastic or fiberglass, these are easy to install and durable. Perfect for smaller or raised ponds with defined shapes.
Poured Concrete – Ideal for formal or modern pond designs. Concrete offers clean lines and customizable finishes, but requires expert installation and sealing.
Our team will help you choose the best liner to suit your vision, budget, and landscape.
Smart Pond Placement
Proper placement is essential for both beauty and ease of maintenance. We help homeowners choose the perfect location by considering:
Visibility – Enjoy the pond from your patio, windows, or favorite backyard spot.
Sunlight – Most aquatic plants need at least 5 hours of direct sunlight per day.
Accessibility – Ensure easy access to power and water for pumps and filters.
Terrain – Slight slopes are perfect if you’re also considering a waterfall feature.
We recommend avoiding spots directly under trees (to reduce leaf litter) or in low-lying areas prone to flooding.
Add-On Features and Enhancements
Aquatic Plants – We can incorporate lush aquatic vegetation for a more natural look and to attract birds, frogs, and dragonflies.
Lighting – Subtle landscape lighting or underwater LED lights allow you to enjoy your pond into the evening. More about Pond Lighting
Waterfalls & Streams – Add movement and sound with custom water features that elevate your pond’s beauty.
