Water Features

W.J. Hatt Ltd takes great pride in the construction of water features that are natural and simple. These can be installed either during the building process of a lake or pond, or retrospectively upon completion. We have created waterfalls, cascades, fountains, piers and jetties for estates, private houses and schools.

In addition to this, we have designed and built bespoke eye-catchers for clients, creating a stunning visual impact on visitors. See our work on this stunning quartz stone water feature, for example, which sits inside an infinity pool and includes a power supply for the inclusion of atmospheric lighting and a remote-controlled operation.

We can also modify or repair existing structures and water features that are leaking or have suffered damage as and where required.

We offer a complete design, consultancy & build service and have a well-equipped carpentry workshop to ensure that any wooden structures can be manfufactued in-house to our specific requirements. When necessary, we work in conjunction with Allsebrook Pumps to provide cost-effective and reliable solutions.

Get in touch to discuss your ideas for small garden or large-scale water features. Please note that we work mainly in the Berkshire, Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire areas.

Water Fountains
This antique stone fountain gains its waterproofing without using any visible liner or internal coatings so that the stone itself remains visible. The flow rates for the pump can be altered to suit requirements, and in this instance a threaded end to the outflow pipe allows for the addition of various water-dispersing nozzles. The balance tank to automatically control the water level is located underground nearby while the pump itself is hidden in a sump with a stone cover inside the fountain. We have had the privilege to construct a large number of different fountains in many beautiful settings.
Further information

The company has always operated on a very practical level when it comes to constructing water features, such as waterfalls or jetties. Although we can always create bespoke designs upon request, our emphasis is very much on traditional-looking features that quickly naturalise. We would always look to hide any artificial EPDM liners used, along with using natural rock where ever possible. This creates features that are not overly symmetrical, which work perfectly in our wildlife ponds. We believe that water features should draw the eye rather than catch it. The only way to achieve this is to go through the designs on site, rather than finalise drawings on a computer beforehand.
