Just want to say that I really appreciate that you reveal how much it costs. Gives people a realistic perspective, helps us compare and even plan.
Thank you, Rob. We try to be transparent.
It's absolutely beautiful Jaak. I agree with the homeowner about stress relief. It is a relief...moving water is healing. I went this week to put roses in the water where my son and sisters ashes are. Water is so powerful in the healing process. I miss my son so very much. God bless

That homeowner's review of the service you provided is what it's all about. You brought life back to her home in a special way. Beautiful customer.
She was amazing. We were honored to have worked on her project.
So beautiful ❤❤❤
What a paradies! What I love about you is that you are not holding back to talk about the costs. Here over in Germany, when you ask builders what the project you are about to see costs, they tell you:“ Well it depends…you can‘t compare that with other projects…“ and while this may be true, all I asked for are the costs of this project.
Sometimes it sounds like they are ashamed about the hight costs. But if it’s worth it it’s worth it! And it’s obviously worth it!
Thank you!
Same here in Brazil, my friend... I really aprecciate when the people are honest saying clearly what we want to know.
At the 10:00 mark you have a closeup of a flat stone in the stream with just a thin trickle of water going over it. It is amazing to me that you were able to engineer that look, in your mind's eye, before the water makes it so. That's great artistic talent. Thanks for sharing it.
Thank you so much, Mark!
I really liked the room renovation analogy regarding the cost of the pond I don't think many people would be inclined to think that way but it certainly makes sense to me.Looks great!.
It's all about perspective :) Thank you!
Wow Jaak, beautiful. Love the huge flat rocks in the waterfall
Thanks, Tim! 💪

Being in the 6-figure club myself, I definitely agree, it's so worth the money. Creating an outdoor destination room also increases the value of the property as well.
It's an investment, for sure. But well worth it 🙏
Looks so natural, it’s beautiful!
Thank you!
if I ever make enough money you will be my first choice for a pond installer. Always impressed with you and your teams ability to transform a landscape.
Thank you, Jacob. We appreciate those kind words.
Another great project. Transforms a basic boring backyard into a nature retreat!
Thanks, Perry 💪
Just love this water feature. The waterfall looks like nature just made it.
Thanks!
My eyes were immediately drawn to the middle waterfalls, incredibly impressive and inspiring work! The video itself is fantastic as well. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much!
Jaak - you hit it out of the park once again!!!
Thank you 🙌
Jaak, I so love your channel. I felt like every project you did is a piece of art. Unfortunately I am in CA. and can’t you bring your crew over here for my ever-wanted pond remodeling project. All I can do is keep watching your channel…😂😂
We appreciate you watching!
An absolute beautiful addition to that back yard. Enjoyable 365 days a year. Awesome job guys!
Thank you, John! 🙏
Absolutely Gorgeous!! 🤩I’m so happy Debbie enjoys her water feature 😊
Thanks, Cherisse!
Love it , It’s always nice when a water feature or pond is constructed and at the same time landscaped as well. Kudos to Atlantis Water Gardens, I wished I have the same pond 😊and garden.
Thank you 💪
10.04 I love the slow-moving water over the flat rock.
Great for birds and bees 🐝
Thanks, Susie! The wildlife is going to LOVE it!
Really love the low and wide style. Feels so much more natural and majestic to me.
Really adds to the natural look, right?
Absolutely fantastic. The negative reservoir is superb. What a skimmer!
Thanks, Chris!
Adore the small run off on the waterfall where the waters gently running off on top of a boulder. Makes this feel way more authentic….
Thank you!
worth every cent! Awesome pond!
Thank you, Dan!
Wowed wow such a beautiful pond. Love everything about it. The landscape, rocks work the waterfall sound great. Great job guys. One thousand like 👍 😂
Thank you, Diane
Worth everything penny. Love it.
Absolutely gorgeous, great work Jaak and team!
Thank you so much!
Stunning, absolutely stunning. I particularly love the stream and waterfalls.
Thank you!
I don’t think it gets any better than that.. amazing!
Thank you, Richard!
your best one. perfect.
Wow, thanks!
Absolutely Beautiful! The way that you got the rocks to blend in with each other is incredible.
Thanks, David 😃 Years of practice.
You build it and nature will do the finishing touches. Beautify.
💯
Very beautiful. Thank you for sharing!! 💚
Thank you!
Perfect pond mate! Simply stunning 😍
Thank you!
Simply Beautiful ❤
Thanks, Rose
Have to say, that I think you guys are the best in the business. Which you're here in Australia. Good to see you sharing the cost of the build.
Wow, thank you! We'll actually be in Australia working on a build this month!
@@AtlantisWaterGardensamazing! Is that in Sydney? Any spare time you may have to redo my existing pond? 1.5m *3m 😅
@@aussiebuggaa won't be any spare time, sadly. But you can give us a call and we can set up another trip ;D
That IS beautiful and perfect for that yard. I’m actually a bit jealous. Great job Jack. If I lived in my old house back in Bucks County PA I’d probably have you do one for me. I’m in SC and built my own. Working on the third expansion LOL thanx to videos like this you learn what and what not to do. Keep up the great work.
Awesome, Lee! Keep expanding 😃 Thanks for the support💪
Aaaaand another masterpiece! Thank you for those pieces of wonderland
Thanks so much!
This, as is every project you guys do, is just GORGEOUS!! I realize the homeowner gets a tremendous amount of personal value, calmness, serenity from this pond and that's really important. Do you think the cost of the pond increased her home value $125k+? I'm truly interested in this answer as I would like to do something similar.
That's really dependent on many variables, as with anything in the housing market. Do I personally feel it increased the value that much, yes and to the right buyer I'm sure it did as well. I hope that helps.
Good morning Jaak hope you have a wonderful weekend... wow absolutely spectacular like always. Truly beautiful in every sense of the way.. absolutely beautiful... congratulations on another amazing build. Blessings to you and your beautiful family . See you next video like always.
Thank you, have an amazing day!
Very nice pond. Thanks for sharing 💗👍✌️💯🔥
Thank you, Mark! Appreciate your support.
Just Absolutely Beautiful ! Great job guys !
Thanks, Ryan!
This really is a stunning finish Jaak. Superb work as always 👏🏻
Thank you!
Love ya work! Thanks for sharing & inspiring ❤
Thank you 💪
Mesmerizing!!
Thanks, Ramon!
All flat, gradually coming down, giving all details, I think you are better than other professionals. You use lots of Ingenuity and natural Theme. All your water features are incredibly different from one another. ❤❤❤❤❤❤All flat, no sign or clue that it has been made by humans,,,, beautiful, gorgeous and tremendous❤❤❤❤
Thank yo so much. That's what we strive for.
Great job buddy that lady has a beautiful soul I knew you were going to do the planting for her! Lol you rock 🪨
Thanks, Julius!
Just Amazing, Jaak!
Thanks, Keith! 💪
Absolutely beautiful! Nice job!
Thanks, Sue!
Oh wow, this is soooooo beautiful.
Thanks, Drase!
Another one!! 💪🏽
👏👏👏
Nice use of a tree with weeping growth form, there most impact full when used beside water, draws the eye down
Totally agree, Christopher.
Beautiful job crew!
Thanks, Alicia 😃
Love the pond and waterfalls. ❤ COVID has been over for a long while now though. Time to move on!
Thanks, David.
simply amazing and natural looking! Sure you can put a price to the project, but the execution, designs and visions that someone like yourself has is priceless would be out there everyday! If one was looking to take a dip on a hot day in this would that be ok or would it be safer if the pump was external? thanks for your time!
Thanks, Richard! Appreciate the support.
just gorgeous!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Outstanding as always lol
Thank you 💪
Love how the water runs over that big black angled slab before it drops.
Thanks!
Awesome 👌 👏
😃
Beautiful!
Thank you 🙏
The pond & landscape is absolutely beautiful! Lucky for you Debbie didn't listen to her daughter. Thats a lot of money but I couldn't think of spending that on anything else. Pond guy says get bigger pots & fertilize those lily's. Lol
Let's be honest you complain and try and Hagel the price down if you were giving that estimate
@@poonplugdoonbug did you read what you wrote? If I was giving that estimate I would not be haggling against myself. Business 101. I think you ment to say given rather than giving. 🤔 I would venture to say Jaak breaks down the cost so a customer can see where their money is going. You are paying for the craftsmanship. Just like buying a cookie cutter home or a custom built home.
Thanks!
Amazing I would of thought a bit higher on the cost it is beautiful now> I would love to see how it grows in by the end of summer
You and me both!
Looking great, I would love to see it in 5 years' time
It's going to look AMAZING!
Hi Jaak.
How are you, Sir?
As always, you and your team always do a fantastic job.
That Pond is absolutely splendid. And it is nice to see that the owner is very pleased with it.
Like 90 is now up to say thankyou very much for sharing.
Take care, Sir. 👍🏼🙂👍🏼❤️
Thanks! 💪
@Atlantis Water Gardens You are welcome, Sir.
I think that for a Pond which is not very big, it has a very beautiful design.
I like that you used flat rocks for the waterfalls and the bigger Rocks around them to frame the Waterfalls in. 👍🏼🙂👍🏼❤️
So beautiful I love it
Thank you 💪🏼
@AtlantisWaterGardens you are very welcome if I ever become rich I am getting you to build me my pound
Incredible pond Jaak!
I’m curious about the intake bay construction. Is that a big piece of filter mat covering a pump vault? Thanks!
Mat on top of spray foam.
That's a beautiful work done. Love it❤
I wanted to know how big the size of land would I need, would be decent for such a water garden and maybe a floral garden as well?
Thank you! It's all up to you how much space of your garden you'd want to fill. :) You can check our project planner at atlantiswatergardens.com/pricing and see the sizes/options!
Amazing!!!!!
Thank you 💪🏼
Awesome.
Thanks!
Fabulous 💖👏🙋♀️🇨🇱
🙌
I wonder what part of the country this beautiful pond was installed ?
New Jersey 💪
Love it ! Just bought my almost dream house. Looking to build something like it. The cost did that include labor or was it just material ?
That was the total cost.
Far more than I would ever need, but nice to see how it goes together. I have a dual pond with a falls as a part of a backyard garden model railroad. when it rains, there is a portion of the liner that swells up due to groundwater or something, I do not know that. Could anyone tell me why my liner swells at the bottom when it rains?
Hydrostatic Pressure. You have water draining under your liner.
Wonderful job guys. Can I ask what kind of water volume are you pumping for this size of project? You may have said it in your narrative but then I missed it...
8,000 gph
Awesome
Thank you
In my head that’s about the size of the pond and waterfall I’m getting ready to try and do. Any advice on how to get that grand look but using only rocks that I can carry, I can get help with some two man boulders but I’m going to be doing this by myself for the most part. I can see this is going to be quite an undertaking. I think I need some ibuprofen just thinking about it.👍🇺🇸
Go out and get inspiration from local streams, creeks etc and use that for the basis of your design. Also, LOTS of Ibuprofren ;)
Hi what pump did you use and what is the volume per hour? This looks immense by the way. Sadly i'm in the UK
We do travel projects! Let me check the specs for this job and I'll get back to you.
If I were to guess before hearing your price range, it would be around 250-300k. And still worth it.
Thank you!
Incredible work Jaak! What is your "territory" for builds? Which states?
We build all over the world, but we're local to New Jersey.
😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲
Now that's some "wow" factor!
Jaak ! Looks awesome ! Question: how long after the initial build do you guys keep the filter pad in the intake bay ? Or will it just stay as is for the life of the feature ? I’ve seen you build some other intake bays this way just curious if at some point remove the filter mat and install some small cobble stones ? Thanks and best wishes as the new season kicks in ! Can’t wait to see what you guys crank out this year !
We leave them in. It save the Aquablox from getting clogged with debris
Thank you for taking a moment to reply ! Have a stellar day ! 😎👊🏼
This one really makes me miss my backyard😢
Rain🌧️ can’t make one video can you buddy😅
Lol, you know it doesn't happen often!
And yes, $125,000 is a lot of money. But when you make your exiting back yard an additional living space for decades and generations to come, it is a smart investment.
Exactly, it's a lifetime investment for sure.
Jaak, it;'s stunning, especially now that the plants have grown in. I've spent a lot more on my pond and it's total garbage compared to this. I have so many regrets... Wish I had reached out to you first.
♥️
AWESOME POND! Can you share the link to the construction video if there is one? :D
Here are the first 3:

@@AtlantisWaterGardens Appreciate this, thanks!
I love the pond. Kind of expensive.
Thank you.
Profit margin by chance?
can't give away the secrets ;)
They have become so expensive that I have put off my pond indefinitely. 😢
Sorry to hear that 😥
Smoking Awesome!!!
Thank you 💪🏼
I've had a half dozen landscaping guys out over the past decade. I wish I could find somebody with half your knowledge and enthusiasm. (Having said that, a 12 min video with this title should be a little more detailed on the cost...spend some time breaking it down and explaining.)
Thanks for the feedback. What area are you located in?
@@AtlantisWaterGardens Fort Collins, CO
So basically until you are rich you cant afford these rec ponds 😅😅
I get where you're coming from! While recreational ponds can be an investment, they’re definitely not just for the super wealthy. We work with a wide range of budgets to create custom water features that suit different needs and price points. Plus, the long-term benefits-like lower maintenance and energy costs compared to traditional pools-make them a great value over time. Feel free to reach out if you want to explore options that could work for you!
Must be nice to be rich.
Takes a lot of hard work in most cases as well
$125,000…huh
Yup.
that's how much it COSTS? or that's how much you charged. lol
Both.
too much money
Thanks for the feedback, Philip.
i like the pond idea until she said snakes....im good
Drew would agree with you! Haha
WOW . $125 K . THAT'S VALUE FOR MONEY.
Thank you.

My eyes were immediately drawn to the middle waterfalls, incredibly impressive and inspiring work! The video itself is fantastic as well. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for the kind words 💪🏼
