The Sound of Flowing Water

The textured slate surface creates a gentle stream sound as water flows across it.

The effect is calming and natural — closer to a small stream than a typical bubbling fountain. Bring Calm Movement to Your Garden

Your garden will benefit from the sound and movement of water, but traditional fountains can splash, bubble loudly or require complicated installation.

The Water Table creates a gentle flowing stream across natural slate, producing a calm, natural sound while remaining fully self-contained and easy to install.

Where the Water Table Works Best

The Water Table is designed as a calm focal point for contemporary gardens.

It works particularly well in:

  • Planting next to a seating area

  • Courtyard gardens

  • Contemporary landscaped gardens

  • Patio seating areas

  • Gravel gardens

  • Modern planting schemes

The gentle stream sound adds movement and atmosphere without dominating the space.

Handcrafted slate and Corten steel

Each water table is built using:

  • Solid Corten steel reservoir base 3mm thick.

  • Built to last years and years.

  • Hand-shaped textured Cornish slate.

  • Integrated pump system and piping.

  • Designed and assembled in the UK.

The Corten base forms a clean architectural cylinder, housing the hidden water reservoir and pump.

The slate top is robust and built to last. It is deliberately textured to create a natural flowing sheet of water - producing a consistent, soothing stream sound rather than a light dribble.

Simple Installation

Place the Corten reservior anywhere in the garden; on the patio, decking or in a flower bed just next to the patio. Then lift the slate top section and lower it into the base, push the hose together and it is ready for water.

The Corten base acts as a self-contained reservoir.

No digging. No plumbing. No external water supply required, just fill and top up with your garden hose.

Position. Fill. Plug in. Enjoy.

Optional full installation and support available upon request.

Built to Last Outdoors

This is not a lightweight garden centre feature.

The reservoir is formed from 3mm thick Corten steel - designed to weather naturally and develop a rich, protective patina over time.

The slate top is solid natural stone, shaped and textured by hand. It will not fade, crack or deteriorate like resin alternatives.

Every material has been chosen for permenance.

It is designed to live outdoors - season after season.

FAQs

How loud is the water?

The Water Table creates a gentle flowing stream sound, similar to a small natural watercourse.

The textured slate surface spreads the water evenly to create a calm and continuous sound rather than a bubbling fountain.

Is the Water Table Right for Your Garden?

The Water Table works particularly well in:

• Contemporary landscaped gardens
• Courtyard gardens
• Patio seating areas
• Gravel gardens
• Amongst planting

The gentle stream sound adds movement and atmosphere without dominating the space, making it ideal for creating a calm focal point close to where you sit and relax in the garden.

If you’re unsure whether the Water Table would suit your garden, please feel free to get in touch — we’re always happy to discuss your space.

How often does the water need topping up?

Typically every 3–4 weeks in summer, depending on weather conditions.

The Water Table has a 110 litre reservoir, so evaporation happens slowly.

Can the metal be buried?

Yes, partially or full the steel will last just as long in the ground. It looks great in amongst planting.

Can it stay outside all year?

Yes. The materials are designed to withstand UK weather.

During very cold temperatures (when you see icicles forming), the feature should simply be switched off. It does not need to be covered or moved inside for winter.

What electrical supply does it need?

The Water Table uses a standard outdoor socket and comes fitted with a plug.

It can also be wired into a permanent supply by a qualified electrician if preferred.
The cable length is 9 metres and can be shortened if required.

Does it require plumbing?

No. The Water Table is fully self-contained.

It is simply filled using a garden hose.

How do i know when to top it up?

The water level is also visible, making it easy to monitor. As the water level drops through evaporation, the sound of the water becomes slightly louder as it falls further inside the reservoir. This naturally alerts you that it is time to top up the water.
