Custom Waterfalls
& Water Features

Natural stone waterfalls, pondless features, pool waterfalls, and bubbling boulders — bringing the sound and beauty of moving water to your Ontario backyard.

What We Do

The Sound of Water
Changes Everything

There's something genuinely transformative about the sound of moving water in a backyard. It creates a sense of calm, masks urban noise, and draws your eye to a natural focal point that no other landscape feature can replicate. A well-designed waterfall or water feature doesn't just look beautiful — it changes how your entire outdoor space feels.

At True North Construction Inc, we design and build custom water features using natural stone — hand-selected and placed to look as though they've always been part of your landscape. From a simple pondless waterfall tucked into a garden bed to a dramatic multi-tier cascade integrated into a retaining wall, we build water features that become the centrepiece of your backyard.

Pondless waterfalls — natural stone cascades with hidden reservoir systems
Pool waterfalls and sheer descents — integrated into pool or spa designs
Bubbling boulders and fountain features — low-maintenance accent pieces
Natural stone selection — hand-chosen boulders and flagstone for authentic look

What We Build in
Waterfalls & Water Features

From subtle bubbling accents to dramatic multi-tier cascades — here's the full range of water features we design and build.

Pondless Waterfalls
The most popular water feature we build — a natural stone cascade that flows into a hidden underground reservoir. Beautiful sound and movement with no open pond to maintain.
Pool Waterfalls & Sheer Descents
Natural stone waterfalls, stacked stone sheer descents, and grotto features integrated directly into pool and spa designs for a resort-quality finish.
Bubbling Boulders
Single and clustered bubbling boulder fountain features — drilled and plumbed natural stone boulders that provide gentle water sound with minimal footprint.
Multi-Tier Cascades
Dramatic multi-level waterfall systems using large natural boulders and flagstone — designed as a major landscape focal point visible from your home and patio.
Retaining Wall Waterfalls
Water features integrated into natural stone or armour stone retaining walls — combining structural function with stunning visual and auditory effect.
LED Lighting & Equipment
Colour-changing LED underwater lights, perimeter spotlighting, premium pumps, and filtration — all installed and commissioned for reliable year-round performance.
How It Works

The Water Feature Process

From design concept to first flow — here's exactly how we build your custom water feature.

01
Free Consultation
We visit your property, walk the space with you, discuss the type and scale of feature you envision, and assess site conditions — then give you an honest quote.
02
Design & Stone Selection
We design the feature layout, select the natural stone, plan the water flow, and finalize lighting before any excavation begins — so you know exactly what you're getting.
03
Excavation & Basin
We excavate for the reservoir basin or pond, install the liner, place the pump vault, and prepare the site for stone placement.
04
Stone Placement & Plumbing
Natural stone is hand-placed boulder by boulder — building the cascade structure, concealing the plumbing, and shaping the water flow before fill and testing.
05
Fill, Test & Commission
We fill, test water flow, adjust stone placement for optimal cascade effect, commission the lighting, and hand you a finished feature — ready to enjoy.
What Sets Us Apart

Why True North for Your Water Feature

Natural Stone Expertise

Placed by Hand,
One Stone at a Time

A water feature built with natural stone is an art form. The stones need to be selected for the right shape and texture, placed at the right angle for proper water flow, and arranged so the overall composition looks organic and natural — not like a pile of rocks with a pump in it.

Our team has placed hundreds of natural stone water features across Ontario. We hand-select every boulder and flagstone used in your feature, and we place them one at a time — adjusting the flow and visual balance as we build until it looks exactly right.

Low Maintenance

Beautiful Water Features
That Are Easy to Own

We design every water feature with Ontario's seasons and your long-term ownership in mind. Pondless systems eliminate the algae and safety concerns of open ponds. Properly sized pumps and filtration keep water clear with minimal attention. Winterization is straightforward — we'll walk you through it.

A True North water feature isn't a maintenance headache — it's a feature you turn on in the spring and enjoy all season with almost no intervention. We use premium equipment that runs quietly and reliably for years without issue.
