It's April already! Spring is in the air and we have a couple of things to celebrate this month, first of all as we mentioned in a previous post is the closure of our showroom which has seen thousands of customers through its doors since opening in May 2008.

So, big congratulations for everyone involved at UK Water Features, and not to forget an even bigger thank...

There are many water fountains out there on the market these days but none of them possess a beauty quite like a stainless steel water feature.  St...

Which is good news, we do lose an hour of sleep... however we will be able to spend that much longer in our gardens in the evening.

If you are unfortunately  sat in an office all day and do not get a chance to enjoy this lovely weather because by the time you get home from work, the weather has cooled and is now a little to chilly to sit outside to enjoy the...

Spring has finally arrived! We are only in the first week of spring however the sun is out, the weather is getting warmer and the days are getting longer. As we are all sat here thinking about what we want to do to our gardens this year, it may be a good idea to spare a thought for solar power . Over the next several months, the days are going to be getting longer and longer, meaning there will be more daylight for a greater period of time. What does this mean to you? Well, if you are using the power of the sun to power your...
