"hired this company four years ago to redesign our fish pond. did a great job. I needed a new pump this year and a complete cleaning. Anthony came immediately assessed what we needed. call back a few hours later with a very reasonal price and a day to come to do the job which is in four days. great guys to do business with."
"Tim and his helper arrived on time and proceeded to efficiently take care of reviving a stagnant garden fountain. Tim clearly knows all about water features and offered suggestions for its continued maintenance. He even went and purchased several rice fish and introduced them to their new home. Both young men were courteous and careful taking time time to prune back overgrown bushes and branches. I highly recommend them for any work on fountain and pond construction and maintenance."
"I can not say enough good things about Just Lawn. Norman communicated with me each step of the way, included me in every decision to ensure that I was happy with the final project. My new steps, brick walkway and stone wall is absolutely beautiful and turned out better than I expected. Norman Daley is a true professional and I will recommend him to everyone!"
"We have been very pleased with Green Valley Landscaping. The owner, Omar, is very attentive, honest and quality-conscious. His employees are polite and hard-working. Our grounds have never looked better, and the pricing is always fair. We highly recommend Green Valley."
"Chris and his team did a great job installing an irrigation system at my home. He and his team were professional, on time, and on budget. He was very responsive and there were no surprises. I would definitely work with Chris again and I highly recommend."
"Jeremey did a terrific job on our two-car attached garage, which had both structural and cosmetic issues. He is incredibly conscientious. There was a lot of scope creep with this job because we kept finding things that were wrong or needed doing. One of the things I like the best about Jeremy was that he was able to roll with the changes without issue, and he had no trouble with my hanging around, and pitching in, which I enjoyed. To be sure, Jeremy did all the hard work, but at times it felt like we were working together and he was able to handle that without issue. We conferred every day of the job and made adjustments to what work would be done on the fly. The end result was Jeremy took care of a lot of things that neither of us had anticipated going into the project. I helped out by supplying some materials and the paint. Make no mistake: my involvement was my doing, not Jeremy's. I'm sure that is not his usual way of working. In addition to the carpentry and handyman skills, Jeremy is a great painter. It's sort of rare to find someone who does both of those things well. When Jeremy left everything was clean, completely finished, the last paint was drying and I was completely satisfied with the work."
Backyard water features can add serenity to your property, drown out neighborhood noise, and serve as a focal point to a stunning landscape design. In some cases, a properly installed and maintained water feature can add to your home’s value. Just be sure to check with your insurance company before installation since some features may affect your premiums.
Smaller, pondless water features like bird baths, self-contained fountains, and bubbling rocks are much lower maintenance than their counterparts that include ponds. Pondless features help you avoid high pond maintenance costs and allow you to spend more time enjoying the water feature and less time on upkeep.
Though there are a lot of factors that go into caring for a koi pond, the most important maintenance you can do is frequent water checks using a koi pond test strip that checks the water for dangerous conditions. In addition to regular pond maintenance costs, you’ll also need to winterize your koi pond if you live in a colder area.
A koi pond may add value to your home if it’s a feature sellers are looking for. Like pools, ponds can affect your property value depending on their condition, whether they’re a popular selling point, and how well they’re incorporated into your home’s landscape.
Most outdoor water fountains and features do not use a lot of electricity, typically consuming between 100 and 250 watts per day. The size of the fountain's motor can impact its overall electricity usage. To reduce energy consumption, you can use a timer to automatically turn the fountain off at night or when you are away from home. Additionally, installing solar power components can help lower electricity costs after the initial investment is recouped.
