620 Leonard St. N.W. Grand Rapids, MI 49504 (616) 459-8367 www.BeldenBrickandSupply.com Todd Belden, Owner Legacy: “Our family has been in the industry since the late 19th century,” notes Rhonda Belden, director of marketing. Inspiration: “We are seeing a lot of traffic from customers who are ready to renovate or build their dream home. Economic concerns have homeowners more in tune with quality and selecting what they really want, even if it costs a little more. Believe it or not, a brick home is less expensive than most, while offering superior quality and gorgeous, long-lasting curb appeal.” Gratification: “Homeowners often come in or email me pictures of their new living space,” Belden says. “It’s a great feeling to see their excitement and pleasure. Even with a simple fireplace redo, it’s like enjoying a whole new space.”

“Hearth and home” is a truly inviting phrase. The warmth of a stone surround coupled with a crackling fire symbolizes comfort and contentment. For more than 30 years, Belden Brick and Supply Company has been a leader in providing quality masonry, landscape, and hearth products to make your house a true home. “As part of the Belden Brick family, we offer a unique advantage in experience and service obtained from our 125-year-old family brick company,” shares Rhonda Belden, director of marketing, adding that the business also services Southwest Michigan and offers an additional showroom in Saginaw. Belden Brick & Supply offers an expansive array of products ranging from brick, natural stone, pavers, retaining walls, high-end stoves and fireplaces, as well as installation supplies. “Indoors and out, our showrooms offer oneof-a-kind displays of inspiration for your project needs,” Belden says. “Our garden display of pavers and wall systems feature many ideas that can spruce up your plans. We also showcase our brick, stone, and concrete materials so you can interact with a variety of textures and colors.” Inside, she added, Belden’s showroom invites

homeowners to peruse a gorgeous setting of fireplaces and stoves. Clients who are apprehensive about decisionmaking do not need to worry. Belden’s partnership with quality architects, builders, masons, landscapers, and hearth installers — paired with a cadre of experienced on-site staff — instill customers with the confidence needed to embark upon a home or commercial project. There are other benefits, too. “As a local, family-run business, we get to know you and your style,” Belden says. “You’ll be remembered the next time you visit, making each project you tackle easier and more enjoyable.”

The EPS Team pictured from left to right: Dawn Lubben, sales consultant; David Hood, director of sales; Sue Blankenstein, sales consultant; and Susan McElgunn, sales consultant can assist you with your security needs.

Technology is changing at nano speed. Subsequently, the more things evolve, the more security we need. Even in safe, clean Grand Rapids, it is important to know that someone else is looking out for us. More than ever, businesses require exceptional security in order for them to be safe. Luckily, there is an outstanding solution in our own back yard. Grand Rapids-based Engineered Protection Systems (EPS Security) is a nationwide leader in security systems services. “EPS provides burglar alarms, fire alarms, card access systems, video surveillance and integrated systems to more than 16,000 commercial and residential clients in the Midwest,” Hood said. While the company has substantially grown in size since its inception 56 years ago, its commitment to local service

has not changed. “There are numerous reasons why people choose us for their security needs, but much of our success comes from having real relationships with our local builders and homeowners. Business owners can access their systems a number of different ways,” Hood said, adding, “Our technical certifications are among the highest any company can achieve.” EPS headquarters is located in downtown Grand Rapids, just blocks from where the company first opened its doors. “Our commitment to the neighborhood remains intact,” Hood said. Today, it is the largest independent security provider in West Michigan, with satellite offices in Traverse City, Petoskey, Holland, Gaylord and Kalamazoo. To learn more visit: www.epssecurity.com

Learning curves: West Michigan-based EPS Security offers solutions for the home and business to utilize the internet, PDAs, cell phones and other web-enabled devices to control your security system, receive information remotely and much more. “In the security industry, technology continues to bring the world closer together, and the need to feel connected is reality,” David Hood, director of sales and marketing said. Our place in the industry: “EPS is a local, family-owned business operating in Grand Rapids since 1955,” Hood reflected. “In that time we’ve grown to become one of the nation’s top 30 security firms, which is a testament to the dedication of our staff and the satisfaction of our customers.” High point in 2010: Hood is proud to note that EPS Security’s successful year was capped with awards of excellence by First Alert Professional and CSAA, two of the security industry’s largest associations.

anguid ponds. Water lilies. This isn’t 21st century Michigan; it feels more like a trip to Monet’s Giverny or a visit to Shangri-la, complete with waterfalls, floating flowers and exotic fish darting among the greenery. Several Grand Rapids area companies are experts in this field, helping local residents create the water garden of their dreams. Their businesses are thriving, too. By investing money in enhancing their backyard living spaces, people are creating relaxing paradises in their own yards. Mike Muyskens

of five-year old AWM Water Features has experienced 47 percent growth from the previous year. Likewise, Don Apol, who owns Apols Landscaping and Water Gardens with his wife Mary, has also experienced economic expansion. “We have been in business since 1982, but I have been in the industry since 1964. We are a landscaping company specializing in aquatics. In addition, we raise aquatic plants, such as Water Hyacinth, Hardy and Tropical Water Lilies, and

Hardy Lotus, with four aquatic greenhouses,” Apol said. “We also raise Koi and Goldfish with over 40 tanks, and have an aquatic retail store.” Ponds and aquatic gardening have long been popular. “People have kept ponds and fish forever.” Apol said. “I think the Romans had waterfalls in their landscapes. I think it will go on as long as there is landscaping.” Costs are less prohibitive, too. “The addition of water features used to be fairly expensive, but with new technology

According to Apol, there are several kinds of water gardening: Koi Ponds The most technically challenging, these require a water filter and are the hardest to maintain in terns of water quality. and availability of materials, it has come into the financial range of most people. As people spend more time at home, they want their homes to simulate a vacation.”

Proper construction is the key to a successful aquatic garden, and it is not for amateurs. “No homeowner should attempt to install any kind of water feature without doing extensive research or consulting a professional,” Muyskens said of AWM. ”There are so many factors that go into installing a pond (drainage, lighting, electrical needs, leaf fall, etc.) that we normally don’t recommend the novice try this at home. “ No matter what material is used, regular maintenance is a must, but both Apol and Muyskens agree that it need not be com-

plex. “Maintenance of our installed ponds is usually a simple 5-15 minute process per week with a thorough two-hour cleaning in the spring and possibly fall, depending on the pond condition. For those not able to meet those requirements for maintenance, we offer pond maintenance services,” Muyskens said. “As long as you don’t try to do something that does not follow what’s natural, it’s easy,” Apol added. “The most important aspect is water quality. Bacteria keep a pond clean. All it needs is oxygen and calcium carbonate (baking soda) to do its work. Every pond is different, and there are a lot of products to help you.” Of course, what would a pond be without fish? “Koi and Goldfish really add a lot to

Goldfish Ponds The maintenance of these ponds is easier, because the fish do not get as big and therefore do not create as much waste. A filter may be required, and plants usually accompany these ponds. Water Gardening Ponds These ponds are the lowest maintenance. Because they largely consist of plants, the natural ecological system is easily achieved. Water Features This refers to any type of landscaping that uses water, such as fountains, waterfalls or Koi ponds. Pondless Water Features Extremely popular, they can be placed almost anywhere. Typical pondless water features include a waterfall or stream flowing into a reservoir, which is usually covered with stone.

What are customers asking for in 2011? “The average customer requests a medium-sized pond (8’x11’ to 15’x20’) with a single waterfall, although pondless waterfalls are increasing in popularity,” Muyskens said. “They all include plants, and most incorporate fish, too.” Pondless waterfalls are desirable for a number of reasons. “Commercially, they are now preferred to ponds due to the perceived decrease in liability. Residentially speaking, many homeowners 14

have zeroed in on the main attraction — the soothing sound of the water. With a pondless waterfall, you get all the sound enjoyment while reducing maintenance time even further,” Muyskens added. “Customers that aren’t all that concerned about koi or lilies should strongly consider this option.” Another trend is the installation of rainwater harvesting systems. LED lighting for water features of all sorts is on the rise, as are basalt fountains. Patio ponds are seeing increased use for those purely interested in the plantings rather than aquatic aspects of the garden.

Both men had distinctly personal reasons for selecting this career. Apol’s interest is lifelong, stemming from a childhood affinity for aquariums and natural ponds. Muyskens choose this field for the “ love of nature and the outdoors.” Learn more about water ponds and aquatic gardening by visiting either www. apolslandscaping.com or www.awmwa terfeatures.com
