Water Fountain Repair Costs Overview
Older fountains or those with worn-out parts tend to require more extensive repairs, increasing costs.
Simple fixes like nozzle adjustments are less costly compared to major pump replacements or structural repairs.
Fountains in hard-to-reach areas or high elevations may incur higher labor and equipment costs.
