WATER GARDEN DESIGN
Bring the sound of running water to your backyard. Custom-designed water features built with natural stone and Aquascape products by a Certified Aquascape Contractor.
NATURAL WATER GARDENS
Since 1983, John C Young Design has been creating custom water features for homeowners across London and Southwestern Ontario. From tranquil garden ponds to dramatic natural stone waterfalls, every project is designed to look like it's always been there.
As a Certified Aquascape Contractor and Master Pond Builder, John brings decades of hands-on experience to every water garden project. We use professional-grade Aquascape products to ensure your water feature runs beautifully for years with minimal maintenance.
WHAT WE BUILD
Every water feature is custom designed to fit your property, your style, and your budget. Here's what we offer.
Complete pond design and construction — from excavation and liner installation to rock placement and planting. Built to look natural from day one.
Natural stone waterfalls that cascade into your pond or stand alone as a stunning focal point. Each one is hand-built with real stone for a one-of-a-kind look.
Meandering stream beds that connect water features or wind through your garden. Designed with natural stone and gravel to create the look and sound of a real creek.
Low-maintenance standalone water features perfect for smaller spaces. Water bubbles up through natural stone — no pond required, minimal footprint, maximum impact.
Professional-grade Aquascape pumps, skimmers, and biological filtration systems. Properly sized and installed to keep your water feature clean and healthy year-round.
Water lilies, lotus, marginal plants, and naturalizing elements selected for Southwestern Ontario's climate. Beautiful plantings that help keep your water ecosystem balanced.
