"Mr. Baldyga was very professional. He was up front about cost and timing of the work I needed done. I needed new carpets installed and the old removed, new floors in my kitchen and laundry room. He moved a wall to extend my master bedroom and moved my laundry room from the basement up to the main level of the house. Excellent work done by Mr. Baldyga"

Upon installation of a lawn irrigation system, you will receive 2 seasonal service contract, which includes the start up and shut down of your system, a fertile system which fertilizes your lawn(fee), repels bugs and rust, also a hose enclose which hides your garden hose for those small jobs (fee).

"Installed our system 6 years ago, the system has worked well since install. I would just say get everything in writing and make sure to ask what the life time warranty means. Also check on when they can do you turn on and turn off they are very limited! Where we live they only do one specific day per week so if you cannot be home on that day you will be in trouble twice a year to be home for them."

"In my opinion, my electrical rewire experience with Vince Funk was negative. The project took over three weeks for a small 900 sq. ft. home. The owner kept avoiding text and emails. The job involved half days, no-shows, and poor communication. I was left with exposed wiring, skipped or non-working outlets, unnecessary drywall holes, damage to hardwood floors, carpet, and brand new appliances, and a blown kitchen breaker the night the job was said to be finished. Mid-project, I was pressured to pay additional money by the owner and received a text saying the job would be abandoned if I didn?t pay the same day. I paid in full plus extra, but the work still felt incomplete and subpar. The electrician seemed rushed by the owner Funk. I am a senior citizen and found this experience extremely stressful. This review reflects my personal experience and opinion."

Fountains questions, answered by experts

You have several options for your pond by getting your yard ready for the winter. You can winterize your koi pond by ensuring it’s at least 5 feet deep so it doesn’t freeze completely, installing a pond heater or aerator and having it run at all times, and installing a deicer if temperatures are dangerously low for an extended period. You can also choose to shut down your pond for the winter by removing all the wildlife in it and bringing it indoors, cleaning out the filter and pump, and then covering the pond with a tarp.

Consider the pros and cons of installing a water fountain in your backyard:

Pros

  • Fountains can add beauty to your backyard.

  • Creates a relaxing space to enjoy in your yard. 

  • Water features can add more value to your home.

Cons

  • Regular maintenance is necessary.

  • Upfront and maintenance costs can escalate quickly.

  • Space may not permit you to install the fountain you want.

Seeps and springs form when groundwater reaches the earth’s surface. The main differences between them are the amount of water and the flow rate. Seeps are smaller than springs and consist of water that’s stagnant or flows slowly. Springs contain more water and flow more quickly.

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

Like pools, ponds can be a safety risk, so they may increase your homeowners insurance. Be sure to let your insurance company know if you build a pond on your property—they may have safety requirements in order to keep your premium from increasing.
