Why hire a landscaping company to install your pool? The landscaping around a swimming pool is no longer an afterthought. For years, at Burkholder, we were hired to work around swimming pools, always after the pool was under construction.  More often than not, our client was frustrated with the lack of progress and failed promised by the company installing their pool.  To add to their dismay was the additional work necessary to correct grading and drainage issues that were not considered in the design process.  Many times, a few feet one way or another or 12” higher would have saved the client thousands in drainage solutions and wall construction.

Pools At Burkholder, our education and experience applied during the design process results in an aesthetic masterpiece and an installation process that is enjoyable for our clients.  A pool is no longer a concrete box in the ground.  A swimming pool is just one of the elements in your families’ personal oasis.  Our solution will take into account every aspect of the project which will be handled in house without relying on sub-contractors. Accredited by Genisis 3, the leading watershapers authority, our pools are built stronger, hydraulically correct to run more efficient and include many state of the art safety and equipment advances.  Automation and chlorine generating salt systems for simplified operation and less maintenance, VFD pumps and LED lighting will pay off in just a few seasons, saving year after year of operating expenses.  These are just a few of the benefits in dealing with a company that takes everything into consideration, clearly educating our clients about every option available today. Incorporating a swimming pool into an outdoor addition is refreshing and relaxing, and provides great exercise for children and adults alike.  A new trend among our clients is to create an outdoor addition, that will create memories of family gatherings, swim parties, neighborhood get-togethers, and fire lit summer evenings.  Adding a spa, grotto, waterfall or lagoon; our designers can turn your dream into a reality.  You tell us what you want to accomplish; we will create a design that memories are made of!   Ponds & Waterfeatures Adding water to a landscape brings multiple benefits. The sound of a flowing waterfall will add tranquility to your peaceful retreat. The look of a meandering stream and the reflections on a pond will blend harmoniously with the landscape. A small fountain or bubbler can transform a smaller garden or patio. A pond can also host koi and plant life for your family to enjoy. Our design team will work with you to make the right choice; a pond with a waterfall, a standalone pond or a pondless waterfall are just a few of methods used to incorporate water into your landscape.   Pond Aeration From small backyard ponds to large commercial retention ponds we offer solutions to keep the water moving and oxygenated resulting in clear, fresh water with less algae and bacterial problems.
