"We hired Walter to come and clean our three to your fountain. It was overgrown with green water and algae, and the pump was not working correctly. Walter was very enthusiastic about the project and was very knowledgeable on the phone during our original conversation, asking good questions to lead him in the right direction to better help us. He was neat clean and also when we came out to see how it was going he was quick to acknowledge us and inform us of what’s going on. Walter is a very upbeat person and has great work ethic with our fountain."
"Babylon Builders did an amazing job in making our backyard look like the backyard all others envy. They added colored stamped concrete, an amazing custom sitting wall, new lawn and decorative rocks. Ron (The Owner) was extremely responsive and listened to our every request and executed our vision flawlessly. Juan (The Foreman) was a Rockstar and kept us informed throughout the process. I highly recommend you use Babylon if you want high end, award winning results!"
"The team at Elite Pool service is so thorough and go through the house with such detail. They take the time to do the job right and they do it with flexibility on time. We have been very fortunate to find a cleaner that takes care of all of our needs!"
"SIX Star Service - a modern landscaping company Fernando and Irvin are responsive, timely and highly communicative. I had a roughly $30k job across many weeks with both landscape and extensive hardscaping requests. I couldn’t be more thrilled to have found these guys. Fernando was quick to estimate, send over digital (SMS and email) estimates, invoicing, etc. Making transparency a breeze! They have a lot of resources and a big network of subcontractors to lend a hand across pretty much any job. They have access to exclusive wholesale nurseries in the Bay Area and met all my requests precisely. Fernando also spent extra time with me after each day to make adjustments and game plan new additions and pushed back on ideas that didn’t make sense. Also, I forgot some services were included in a previous quote - they could have easily double charged me - but pointed out that all was included already. They built a lot of trust with me and can’t wait to use these guys again and recommend them to anyone in the East Bay and beyond!"
"Great!! They had good suggestions for plantings and pricing for all the work was reasonable. I would not hesitate to recommend them—and they also do great fencing."
"The job went great I highly recommend them All of their Employees Are very nice and hard workers no slackers Kept our property clean when they left every day They even laid big tarps underneath their trucks to keep the streets clean Marco would come by every day to check on things Louis the man that laid the pavers He did a great job He didn’t just throw down any paver he made sure the shapes and colors were just right like an artist he takes pride in his work We are very happy with our new backyard would highly recommend them."
"Arrived on time and completed work quickly and neatly. When there was a problem with the pump that was installed they came and fixed it without any hassle. I did not have to be at home for them to complete the work which was a plus. Misunderstanding regarding the cost was settled without any difficulties. Would recommend and use again."
"Pete and his crew were great! Every project that was done at my house was finished the same day, very nice. They trimmed and cleaned up the front and back of my house, and added new plants all over, which are blossoming beautifully, they were very professional and clean, I am looking forward to having them come again next summer."
"They were reliable, dependable, and they go above and beyond to satisfy the customer. Very accountable and do what he say. They had good attention to detail and did it correctly. I highly recommend."
Natural swimming pools are designed to deter pests, including mosquitoes. While any body of water can potentially attract pests, the natural filtration system keeps the water clean and constantly moving. Mosquitoes specifically are attracted to standing water, so the continuously circulating water in a natural pool makes it an inhospitable environment for them.
In addition to length and width, pond liners also come in various thickness levels. Thickness is measured in mils, a unit of measurement equal to one-thousandth of an inch, with most pond liners ranging from 15 to 60 mils in thickness. The smaller the number, the thinner (and weaker) the liner. To prevent rips and tears, it’s best to choose a pond liner that’s at least 30 mils thick.
Because frogs require fresh water for survival, they can die from repeated exposure to swimming pool chemicals. Chlorine dehydrates frogs, which can lead to their deaths. To ensure frogs don’t hang out in your pool for long periods, safely remove them once you spot them in your pool and install a frog log so they can easily hop out on their own.
DIY kits exist, but professional installation ensures proper filtration, landscaping, and leak-proof construction.
