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.

Excellent My pond has not been running this well for years Very professional and understanding

Very happy with the work done.

Great service. I am 100% satisfied with the work and thier knowledge of ponds. I will get their service plan..

It was great! He came on Monday as scheduled. It was raining so I would have understood if they postponed but they showed up on time and did a GREAT job! Very knowledgeable, no up selling and the pond looks awesome! Definitely would recommend, great guys!

Arrived on time, fixed and cleaned the pond, cleaned up before they left and I have a clean and functioning pond! Prompt, reasonable and thorough!

The services performed went exceptionally well!!! As a matter of fact, they went far and beyond what was expected… I look forward to doing business with them in the near future.

Within 24 hours of contacting Eric he arrived at my house to service a fountain that was installed by a previous owner of my house and which needed cleaning and pump replacement in order to use. He was great. Definitely recommend.

Worst contractor in ever…here is their idea of a $5000 pond rehab job…next picture is what Borsello Lanscapers did…took First state 3 hours …took Borsello 3 days. First State reviews are fakes.

Eric and his team were prompt and efficient. In a few hours they finished and left me a beautiful pond with a fountain. I will recommend his company to others for certain.

Absolutely great. On time and great service

Erik was a true professional - very knowledgeable and dedicated to the job. Was always available for any questions or concerns and kept me informed on how everything was going. Would recommend him for any pond and fountain job--10/10. He now has a customer for life!

Wonderfully. Very efficient and came when he said.

Fabulous!! I can praise Eric enough!!! He answered my request within minutes. Came when said he would. Knew everything there is know about the job. Worked every second he was there. Refused an extra tip. Just took the price he quoted me and said thank you. I HIGHLY recommend him. You will not be disappointed. I would use him again in a heartbeat!!!! Great man - great service!!!!

My Family In Townsend Needed Their Fountain Cleaned & Running Like New & First State Pond & Fountains Came Through ! Highly Recommend & Have Earned A Constant Customer !!
