"The end result of our work with Exoticus Botanicus has been great. Our backyard is beautiful and much more functional. The contractor had great design ideas. Getting to the end of this project was painful and took much longer than estimated. I found numerous problems which had to be fixed - I think the contractor should have found these problems. In one instance, concrete was poorly poured and looked bad. I immediately raised this issue with the contractor but it was only after weeks of discussion that this was fixed. Our backyard was over-planted, which meant it looked good when the company left but has since become overgrown - this has resulted in later problems and unnecessary expense. The contractor recommended placing rocks as a foundation for our fountain - I asked if we should have a concrete foundation but was assured the rocks should suffice. The fountain has not stayed level and I often have to re-level it - I will eventually get it fixed (the problem is that when not leveled, the fountain quickly loses water). The worst part of this experience relates to the flagstones. We told the contractor that we wanted the flagstone pieces for our patio to be large. The subcontractor cut the stones small. We kept telling the contractor and even the subcontractor what we wanted but still the stones were cut smaller than we desired. It was only with considerable effort, redoing some of the work and extra expense that we got what we wanted. The entire project was spaced out over a long period and the job took 2 months longer than originally estimated. There were periods when no work was occurring. The contractor's own people (vs. subcontractors) only came on the weekend. Other positives: Our sliding doors did not slide easily (fairly jammed) after the works was done - it seemed dust from the stone cutting fouled the rolling mechanisms. The contractor offered to take care of this problem. This company did a fairly good job cleaning up after themselves. Overall, I love our backyard remodel and it has improved our quality of home-life. The whole process should have been much easier."

"The all in one comprehensive service meant less people to communicate with and a more efficient workflow from start to finish.  And they met their deadlines.  I plan on using KS Construction in the future."

"Kevin works with an extensive team of seasoned professionals who know their craft. Everyone was knowledgeable, courteous and helpful throughout. 
We went over our initial budget, partly because some electrical problems from an earlier renovation arose that needed repairing, and partly because we added a number of bells and whistles after the initial estimate. But for example, the custom maple cabinetry cost far less than we were quoted elsewhere and included a lot of special touches, such as an appliance garage, a cutlery drawer, and a pull-out, multi-shelf spice drawer. 
At each step in the process, Kevin kept us apprised of costs and got our approval before any work was done. And for all the extras we requested during construction, we had a brand-new kitchen just a couple of days after the original estimated completion date. We couldn?t be happier with the results. Every remodeling job has its glitches and challenges, and ours was no exception, but Kevin went the extra mile to make sure were getting our dream kitchen. And in the end, that?s exactly what we got. Our new kitchen is a joy to cook in ? and we have Kevin and his team to thank for that.

Aquarium Services questions, answered by experts

Plumbing leaks, roof failures, poor drainage systems, and severe weather events that lead to flooding or inundation are common causes of water accumulation.

Baking soda can help neutralize septic tank odors. If the pH balance in your tank is off, it may emit a sulfurous, rotten-egg-like smell. Flushing about one cup of baking soda down the toilet once a week can help neutralize the odor. To increase the beneficial bacteria in your tank, you can add three rotten tomatoes through your garbage disposal every three months.

To prevent odors in the first place, only flush human waste and toilet paper. Avoid pouring coffee grounds, fats, oils, or grease down your drains, as this can lead to clogs. While these methods can help, the most effective long-term solution is to have your septic tank pumped regularly, typically every three to five years. Because sewage gas can be toxic, it is recommended to hire a professional to identify the source of the smell rather than only trying to neutralize it.

You should pump your septic tank once every two to four years for a family of four, depending on your septic tank size. You should pump a 1,000-gallon septic tank every two years, while a 1,500-gallon tank should be pumped every four years. Water usage also affects how often you should pump your septic tank. If you notice slow drains, foul smells, or gurgling sounds from your drains, you should pump your septic tank as soon as possible.

To prevent drain clogs, perform regular maintenance and cleaning. Avoid disposing of substances like grease or coffee grounds down the sink. Additionally, installing and routinely using drain strainers can help catch debris and prevent blockages from forming.

No. You should dispose of all oil-based finishing products through a local hazardous waste program. Not only can oil-based finishes be hazardous for the environment if disposed of in the sink, but they can cause clogs in your pipes and stop up your drains. Most municipal garbage or waste disposal companies have a specific location or pick-up schedule for hazardous materials, so that’s your best bet to get rid of excess finishing products.
