What Our Clients Say
“The bid was clear and complete. All adders to the bid were initiated by us, and fully discussed before the work began. All work was scheduled quickly and they held to the schedule. The work was done well and we were charged exactly what we agreed to. Darin was also very helpful dealing with the city of Richland for us and removing the electrical box in our front yard. We are very happy.”
– David Tetreault

They showed up early and stayed late every day and got the job done right exceeding our expectations. These guys are true professionals!!!”

Why Musser and What to Expect
Customized design for your specific site. Every water feature design accounts for your yard’s wind direction, sun angles, grading, and city codes. A feature that works beautifully in one yard may be the wrong fit for another, and we design accordingly.
Electrical and plumbing handled to code. Our team manages the full technical scope, including pump and filtration systems, so the feature runs reliably from day one.
Integrated with the rest of your landscape. A water feature should feel like it belongs. We design each installation to work with your existing hardscaping, plantings, walkways, and lighting rather than sitting apart from them.
Maintenance continuity after construction. The same team that builds your water feature becomes your maintenance team. They already know your property’s specific setup, which means fewer surprises and more consistent care. Read more about how design, construction, and maintenance connect in our post on how landscaping design, construction, and maintenance go hand in hand.
Timelines and scope vary by project complexity. Early planning is advised, as our schedule fills. The process starts with a personal on-site consultation, moves to 3D renderings so you can see the design before we break ground, and then proceeds to construction and installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of water features does Musser Landscaping install?
We install fountains, backyard ponds and koi ponds, waterfalls and cascades, streams and pondless waterfalls, bird baths and smaller accent features, bubblers and disappearing fountains, and reflecting pools and modern pools. The right type depends on your yard's size, sun exposure, and how you plan to use the space.
How does the water feature design process work?
It starts with a personal on-site consultation to understand your vision and assess the site. From there, our team creates 3D renderings so you can see the design before construction begins. Once the rendering is finalized, the crew handles installation through to completion.
Do water features require permits in the Tri-Cities?
Some water features, including ponds and in-ground fountains, may require a permit from the local municipality before construction can begin. Planning in advance is recommended to keep your project on schedule. Our post on why winter is the perfect time to plan your Tri-Cities landscaping project covers this in more detail.
How do I know which water feature is right for my yard?
Size, sunlight, electrical access, and how the feature will be used all shape the decision. A small fountain works well on a compact patio; a backyard pond or multi-tier waterfall needs more room. The on-site consultation is where those site-specific factors get mapped out.
Does Musser Landscaping offer maintenance for water features after installation?
Ongoing maintenance support is part of what we offer after a construction project. The same team that built the feature becomes your maintenance team, which means they already know your property's specific setup and needs.
