We've used this company for our lawn/garden maintenance for the last few years. This year for the fall clean up was the WORST! I'm not sure why the crew didn't do the complete job the first time they came, but after contacting them several times, the job is still not complete, nor have we...
The team mowed the grass twice to create a beautiful plaid pattern. The other members of the team trimmed all edges and flower beds, pulled weeds and picked up fallen branches. They blow away all the debris from the street and flower beds. They checked all of my plantings for stress and trim...
We were very pleased with the entire experience. I had to cancel two previous appointments at short notice, but the company was very positive and professional about the schedule changes. Zach Redmond arrived right on time. He was cheerful, neat and dog-friendly, which is a big plus right...

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Erik from First State Ponds, and I can't recommend him enough. Erik traveled all the way from Delaware to Maryland to service my pond, which was having persistent issues with murky water. Before connecting with Erik, I had already been advised by another company to purchase a specific filter and pump. Thankfully, I found First State Ponds just in time. Erik took the time to explain that while the recommended filter might clear my water, it would require constant maintenance. He suggested a different filter and a stronger pump, but he was also willing to install the one I had already purchased if I preferred. After some consideration, I decided to take his advice and returned the original filter to have him install his recommended system. After struggling with murky water all summer, l admit, I was a bit skeptical. I wasn't sure that anything would truly work. But Erik's recommendation exceeded even his own predictions. Within just two days, the water was crystal clear! I didn't really think that was possible. There were a few challenges during installation and I admit this was 100% due to a few things I had set up prior to meeting Erik. But he handled them seamlessly, troubleshooting as needed. For the issues that couldn't be addressed that day, Erik provided me with helpful suggestions on how to finish the job myself. While I initially found the price a little high, after seeing the fantastic results, answering my many questions (including a few the following day), and delivering on everything he promised, I can confidently say he earned every cent. If you're looking for quality service, prompt responses, and impressive results, I highly recommend First State Ponds. Erik and his team are truly top-notch."

A small but growing 2 year old company servicing MOST of New Castle County DE. Two small teams - one does lawn cutting etc., and another crew does landscaping tasks. Total employees of 7 including Owner .
"Absolutely horrible. This company is nothing but a scam. The foreman of this company will make a bunch of promises and then break all of them. They took my money and ran after accomplishing next to nothing. Even worse, they crushed our utility cart and smashed our shed. They even installed our drainage line from our gutter on our neighbor's property. They will not respond to us, the BBB or a certified letter. We left a review reflecting their (poor) quality work on their Facebook page and they took the page down. We will unquestionably be taking them to court. The attached pictures are of how they left the job when they ceased all work. Nothing has been done since. *** Update*** Please see our previous review! Update as of 1/12/2020. Apparently the Owner (Erik) was kept in the dark for the most part regarding this situation. Once being updated in detail as to what went on, Erik stepped up to the plate and reconciled with us. Basically, Erik is a good guy. He made the huge mistake of hiring a very dishonest and deceptive foreman. This particular foreman (who by the way, has now started his own landscaping company) was 100% responsible for all of the problems that we had. From my experience with Erik, I would not hesitate to use his company in the future now that the "problem" is gone. We only thought it was fair to add this portion of the review since Erik rectified the situation."

Installing an outdoor water fountain costs $2,700 on average, not including the cost of the unit. Prices range from $150 to $10,650, depending on your location, the type of fountain, size, and accessibility to the site. Self-contained fountains and water features recirculate the water within the unit. Depending on size and features like multi-tiered cascading bowls, they typically cost from $50 to $5,000. More elaborate fountains with waterfalls and ponds can cost from $450 to $10,000 or more.
Every one to three months, you should perform regular fountain maintenance, including draining, cleaning, and rinsing the components of your fountain basin and the pump and tubing to prevent algae and other buildup. Fountain maintenance also includes keeping the appropriate water level and removing debris like leaves, insects, and twigs from the water to avoid clogging the pump. You can also hire a professional landscaper to clean your fountain for around $50 to $150 per month on average.
Most water features do not use a lot of electricity, averaging between 100 and 250 watts per day. The size of the motor can impact electricity usage. To reduce electricity usage, consider using a timer to turn the fountain off at night and when you’re away from your home. Solar power is another way to defray electricity costs after you recoup the cost of installing the solar components.
You can choose several types of fountains to add to your backyard, ranging in size, number of basins, and special water features.
Check out the price ranges of common fountain types:
Birdbath fountains: $40 to $1,100
Cascading fountains: $40 to $2,000
Tiered fountains: $100 to $6,000
Kugel fountains: $150 to $5,000
Glass wall fountains: $100 to $3,000
