"This company exceeded my goal for the project. They were on time and dealt with severe inclement weather to get the job done. They made sure that the customer knew what was happening and did it cheerfully. I highly recommend this company to anyone that has a difficult job to be performed."

"The work went well. Gary's price was significantly better than the other quote we received. He was responsive in phone communication and provided excellent advice about how best to finish the garage floor. They managed to complete the demo and foundation work and pour the new concrete all in one day; the work appeared of good quality, the crew was helpful and polite, and the final work matched our specifications well. They did an especially good job smoothing the concrete so it has a very flat and even surface. I would very happily hire them again."

"They did an amazing job!  The finished project could not have been better.  I gave them two B's because I am a little bit of a hard grader but I think this is fair.  The first B was for price.  Maxsell's prices are not overly expensive, in fact, I think I paid a fair price for the quality of work that was done but I wouldn't say they were cheap.  Also, I should mention that the original scope of work I asked for was too expensive but they were willing to work with me to come up with something that was within my budget and still met most of my needs.  The second B I gave them was for responsiveness.  This was mostly for the front end scheduling piece.  After the initial estimate, I had to call a couple of times to get on the schedule and make sure they were coming, nothing major but not worthy of an A.  Once the work started I had no problems.  The workmen and supervisors were easy to deal with responsive to my questions and did a great job!
Overall, I thought Maxsell did an amazing job.  I would definitely hire them again and probably will hire them this summer.  You cannot go wrong with this company.

Fountains questions, answered by experts

Lifespans vary by material and manufacturer, but pond liners last anywhere from 10 to 75 years. For example, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pond liners have a life expectancy of up to 20 years. Other types of pond liners, including those made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), can last 40 to 50 years.

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.

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.

Natural pools don’t necessarily attract snakes, although there is a chance they could stop by for a quick visit. They’re not likely to stay, however, because there’s nothing for snakes to eat in a natural pool environment. A well-maintained natural pool has clear water, so you should be able to easily spot a snake before diving in.

Most pond installations take 3-10 days, depending on excavation, liner placement, and filtration setup.
