“From the first phone discussions, to the end product Daniel and his team have been brilliant. The whole installation took 5 days including one torrential rainy day. Absolutely recommend.”

"Daniel has built a beautiful pondless water feature which fits perfectly into our garden. It provides the gentle sound of water over rock; perfect for the sunny seating area. The rocks, stones, tree stumps and plants have been combined to create a natural habitat for wild life and native plants. Looking forward to spending many happy hours relaxing by this lovely stream. We absolutely love it, thank you so much."

"Many thanks to Daniel for installing a new 2-stream waterfall on a previously overgrown & unused bank in my garden. It looks & sounds great and the most important thing for me are the natural aesthetics, it looks like it's always been there. We are looking forward to enjoying the visual and sound this Summer!"

"Daniel and his team have created a stunning, natural looking, pond from a bare patch of earth. It looks as if it has always been there and everyone who vists our home comments on how great it looks. I have no hesitation in recommending Brit Ponds for anyone contemplating adding a pond to their garden."

"Brit Ponds are absolute gem. Fantastic service and communication from Daniel & Sarah – both extremely lovely, friendly and helpful. Daniel and his team have transformed our small tired looking pond, which was in bad shape and suffered from number of issues into a beautiful natural looking ecosystem pond. They did an excellent job bringing a new lease of life to our garden. The pond was moved to a better location, built a new rock waterfall and installed beautiful planting around the pond area in the process – the pond is a stunning centre piece to our garden finally to be enjoyed. We are delighted with the result. Frogs are very happy too 😊 Brit Ponds are professional, highly knowledgeable and pleasure to have around – best of all they are passionate about what they do and care about their customers wants and needs. It is rare nowadays to find a company who listens, responds and adapts – always responsive to any queries we have had, happy to help and share their knowledge. Brit Ponds are truly wonderful caring company. We would highly recommend them and look forward to using them for all our pond maintenance needs over coming years. Thank you Daniel & Sarah."

"Amazing company, amazing service and incredible result! I contacted Brit Ponds for a new liner, but after assessing my tired pond, we agreed installation of a full eco-system. Firstly Daniel and his team were amazing - working so hard in blazing heat to get the water feature finished. They worked tirelessly designing and executing an amazing garden water feature which everyone comments on! It really has transformed our old pond into an incredible and relaxing water feature with the sound of running water as you have your morning coffee. I cannot recommend Brit Ponds more highly for their workmanship, responsiveness and quality of work. The best thing off all, is that on those hot days, my children can actually go into the water so it is like having a beautiful permanent mini pool - only all natural and sustains garden life around us. What more can you ask for? Don't hesitate if you are considering a water feature, there is no one else I would use but Brit Ponds!"

"I first contacted Daniel, at Brit Ponds in 2021 for him to replace my aging pond filter system with a new small wet-land eco-system pond. I was amazed at the effect that this had on the wild-life in the garden. Birds, loved the feature. and we even had visits from the magical Dragonfly. Daniel did such good, professional work, to the predicted timescales, that I had no hesitation, to again contact him regarding my main pond. I was not disappointed! Two waterfalls, a stream, and a hand-crafted bubbling rock, all to allow such a natural view. Not a single formal wall or piece of pond liner in sight! It is such a cool tallking point, and is the envy of my friends and neighbours! Many thanks to Dan and the Team. I would have no hesitation to recommend their fantastic work!"

"Daniel is a first class aquatic artist, he has built me many advanced water features and has helped my team with projects at Pc most weeks thought out the winter months. I do not hesitate to recommend and pass clientele on for any water feature work to Brit Ponds, we look forward to every occasion we can working alongside Daniel. Note: This company are not your average pond contractors, not all ponds are created equal, each one is a custom creation, you are hiring an artist to work in your garden. You will be amazed by the amount of thought and still that go into building water features. I personally recommend people to look at the quality of the pond packages and maintenance packages Brit ponds have to offer."

"Daniel of Brit Ponds, worked with us, as a fellow Certified Aquascape Contractor, on a recent major pond installation we had; photo below. Daniel is a first class artist in his use of rock and natural materials to create a natural looking haven. If you are considering having Daniel build you a water feature just stop! Pick up the phone and book him. He will be the first person I call when we have another big project and need skilled help and I cant wait to work with him again."

"There are so many positives I am not sure I'll have enough space....Our pond is beautiful and everything we could wish for. It is calming and serene. Daniel is a true craftsman and his passion and love for his work is obvious in his creations. He took a tired area and made it into a natural ecopond beautiful designed with plants and natural materials. He was professional, knowledgeable, quick and tidy. Highly recommend."

"Daniel and his team transformed my garden into a dream space. The result exceeded my expectations. The pond looks incredibly natural and is beautifully integrated into the garden. The pergola was rebuilt from scratch, with equally stunning results. The entire project—including planting, a new lawn, and lighting (a full garden overhaul)—was completed in just two weeks, with great attention to detail and a high standard of quality. All in all, highly recommended."

"Daniel persuaded us to extend our beautiful pond to enhance our garden. We took his exowrt advice as he has such good creative ideas. We now have a stunning bridge and underwater lighting with more space for our Coy who love it. We are delighted with it. Thank you Daniel. Daniel from Britponds assured us that he would transform our old style pond into a wonderful natural economy friendly self sustaining pond and he totally delivered. Daniel has an eye for details and is so creative. He has a great work ethic and delivered beautiful product that we love and will enjoy (along with the fish) for years to come. Thanks Daniel and you are welcome back for a cuppa any time."

"I had a leaky old pond which was an eyesore and almost impossible to maintain. Now I have a low-maintenace oasis of calm I love sitting and watching several times a day. Thank you!"

"We reached out to Daniel after we created a Japanese themed pond, and found we were unsuccessfully battling with string algae. Daniel came back to us very quickly, with solutions and suggestions to remedy and improve the pond with an addition of a small stream with a cascading water fall, aquatic planting and wow! wow! wow! - I cannot convey how quick (3 days) they reused the water, brought in heavy stones to create the stream, a planting, not to mention the professional, clean and the enhancement was 10 fold. Wish we invested some time in reaching out to Daniel sooner. Highly recommend the pond services - and expert knowledge. If there is anything he does not know about ponds, its not worth knowing."

"If you are considering a pond, big or small, look no further than Brit ponds. Outstanding work, experts in the field and they know exactly what they’re doing and they give you the best version of your dream pond. I contacted Brit Ponds after following them for a year, and I didn’t think they would respond as my existing pond was in a right state and access to the garden was a huge issue. But Daniel from Brit Ponds responded very quickly, asked for all the info and pictures, took on the challenge, gave me couple of options and prices to sort it out and turned up bright and early on the date promised and regardless of the weather. There was no drama. Daniel quickly identified the issues, gave thorough and brutal but honest advice and unfortunately the only solution was to redo it all. Sarah, the heart of Brit Ponds, brilliantly manages everything from timely paperwork through to regular updates and I know exactly what will be happening each day and well in advance. I knew I was in safe hands. Daniel carefully considered what I wanted, the materials and colours I wanted to use and the design I had in mind and he built me my mini Niagara falls. Something that every other pond builder said was impossible- Daniel and his colleague Andreas made it happen. They took on board what I really wanted, down to how I wanted my waterfall to sound when I wanted out and worked relentlessly until they created a masterpiece. The water is crystal clear, no foaming, no protein, my Koi are happy and the waterfall is just stunning. They looked after my home, was ever so considerate, carried heavy rocks up and down stairs and through the house and into the garden with so much care. They were such a delight to have around and have truly become family. I had to travel for work and I just left them with keys to my home and came back to my dream pond. THANK YOU so much Brit ponds for the stunning pond and all the hard work- I really appreciate it."

"Very pleased with the wildlife ecosystem pond that Daniel and Dave have created. They listed to our needs, and kept good communicate to ensure the final design and finish met our expectation. They were also on time, and made efforts to keep the area tidy. Would recommend them to anyone who wants a well designed, realistic looking and healthy pond."

"We had several quotes and designs for a large waterfall but decided against it until we met Daniel. His design was exactly what we had hoped for and the final feature exceeded our expectations. It is a real ‘wow’ feature. Daniel is totally professional, easy to work with and passionate about what he does."
