Ask anyone residing out in the suburbs about 2 things they see on a daily basis in the property and they are bound to mention whitetail, crows, squirrels or bunnys. OK maybe that's a fairly accurate answer but there's something even more common: water well pumps! And unlike critters which are fun and interesting to watch, water well risers are often-times quite the opposite. Rusty metal water well pump heads are far from natural looking. In fact most would agree that they are downright hideous! Painted in bright and unnatural colors with shiny metallic parts, water well caps just beg for a cover or some sort of camo. And what's even more disturbing is the location of these eyesores. Contractors and builders usually seem to manage to put the well pumps right smack in the middle of the yard where they are easily noticed and least desired. It makes sense from a design point of view. In order to keep costs low you need your water well to be reasonably close to your home, needing less pipe and a smaller containment vessel to keep the water flowing constantly into your home. But from an aesthetic viewpoint the opposite is fact. As homeowners we would much rather have our water wells way out in a distant sections buried in tall weeds in a field some ways away...out of eyesight, out of mind. Unfortunately not a practical solution, however. And of course we want it all: potable water, lots of water pressure but with zero ugly water well cap to stare at. What to do? Rocksfast.com has been distributing DekoRRa brand faux rock well covers for quite some time. These fake boulders look incredibly natural and are extremely simple to impliment. One simply places the rock enclosure over the well riser, stakes it down and walks away. In several situations this process is wonderful. But as Henrik Lifeson at RocksFast.com said "We discovered many people wanted to incorporate in the well cover rock more efficiently into the property." In other words, some homeowners seeked something with a little more curb appeal than just the well rock cover alone. "This winter when we saw DekoRRa's new line of resin stone edger border rocks we had a brainstorm of sorts," says Henrik. "We thought to feature a total system that combines these new DekoRRa Faux Stone Border Edgers with a Faux Rock Enclosure and a section of pre-cut Weed-Guard barrier, allowing customers a quick and easy means of transforming the areas near their water well caps into beautifully edged landscaping features." These "Well-B-Gone" water well transformation kits are brand new on the website: http://rocksfast.com/wellbgone and are sold in three different sizes. "The hard thing about water well pumps is that no 2 utilitys feature the exact same dimensions." Says Henrik. To solve this they offers different kit sizes to accomodate well heads of different dimensions: The Well-B-Gone Model 101 Kit - contains a DekoRRa Model 101 faux rock cover, a kit of 16 Fake Stone Edgers, and a 52" Diameter pre-cut circle piece of Weed Guard. This item featuring the DekoRRa Model 101 plastic rock cover is especially well suited for medium to large well pumps. The Well-B-Gone Model 102 Kit - - contains a DekoRRa Model 102 faux rock cover, a kit of 16 Fake Rock Edgers, and a 52" Diameter pre-cut sheet piece of Weed Guard. This item including the DekoRRa Model 102 fake rock cover is especially well suited for covering large well pumps. The Well-B-Gone Model 107 Kit - - includes a DekoRRa Model 107 imitation rock enclosure, a kit of 16 Faux Rock Edgers, and a 52" Diameter pre-cut circle piece of Weed Guard. This kit including the DekoRRa Model 107 fake rock enclosure is especially well suited for covering smaller well pumps. With all of these kits the customer simply digs out the sod in a 52" diameter circle near the well Cap, lays down the pre-sized Weed Guard Weed Barrier Template, Stakes the Faux Rock Border Edgers along the far edge of the circle, includes Mulch and puts the cover rock over the exposed well pump cap. That's It! It's a fast mulched and edged rock feature! Include some flowers and or bushes and it becomes a true garden accent. "These Well-B-Gone Kits are very simple to install and they include top of the line, Commercial Quality DekoRRa products that appear incredibly realistic and rock-like." Henrik says. "The last thing a customer wants is to cover an ugly water well pump with a cheesy, fake looking plastic rock. In designing these kits we chose the top quality products on the market, and the results are excellent." Gorgeous hollow rock water well covers and pump covers.
