Very
early in the company history we became involved in the construction
of lakes.
House Brothers have, to date, worked on more lakes, reservoirs,
ponds, rivers and dew ponds than any other civil engineering company
in the UK with over 2000 to our credit.
We have constructed water features ranging from small garden ponds
to lakes of 20 acres.

|
Land can be visually transformed with the introduction of a water
feature as well as substantially increasing the property value.
Our experienced staff can cater for your needs, creating wonderfully
interesting designs with imagination and flair, to enhance your
grounds.

Nothing
provides us with greater pleasure than restoring lakes to their
former glory. We are privileged to have worked on many such schemes
including Woburn Abbey Lakes, Victoria Park lake in Bath, Milton Abbas lake, and the village pond
in Tollard Royal, which had been dry
since 1934. |

| WATER FEATURES |
Water is not only important for storage and irrigation but also
serves as an attractive ornamental feature to any grounds. Water
features will further enhance an area, providing sound, movement
and colour as well as creating a focal point to lakes and ponds.
These may be in the form of waterfalls, rockeries, cascades, fountains,
fish ladders, bridges, islands or even House Brothers' unique floating
island. |

House
Brothers Ltd's unique floating islands enable the growth of trees, shrubs, flora,
and are very easily accessible from the bank for replanting or watering
purposes. |
