"I had a hot tub that has been sitting on my deck for years and was out of use. I was looking for a pro to disassemble and haul the tub away. I made contact with Jeremy of J4 Outdoors. Jeremy is a consumate pro. We agreed on a time and price He showed up on time . Did a fabulous job with his crew. He was honest and very fair in pricing. I had to pay him more than he quoted because he went above and beyond and I was super impressed.Jeremy is a genuinely nice guy.Cracked me up with jokes.Very friendly.Cleaned up after they were done.I think J4 deserves 10 stars. Keep up the good work ,Jeremy and crew. Highly endorse these guys!! I will hire them again when need arises.Consumate pros!! Happy customer.Many thanks for being excellent pros!!"

"Brian and Cindy are a 1-2 punch that literally had me jumping for joy.  I was incredibly nervous about re-doing our entire front yard in one large project with a company I had never hired before.  They were recommended by a neighbor who has used them over the last five years on two separate houses, so I had some knowledge of their final product, but I was absolutely thrilled with the results and surprised by how easy they made the whole process from beginning to end.  I'm a project manager for a living, so I have a tendency to be a "tough customer."  Beyond the impeccable customer service: multiple site visits, phone calls, texts, drawings, and both being on-site and hands-on during the actual installation, their prices beat out 4 (highly reputable) local competitors.    I never felt nickle-and-dimed.  In fact, quite the opposite.  They made last-minute adjustments when I made special requests at no additional charge.  He even treated my lawn and cut my grass when our normal maintenance folks didn't show up (needless to say, I'm now exploring a maintenance contract with Salt Creek Gardens).  In less than a week, several neighbors have stopped by to ask who did the work, and despite torrential downpours, the french drain is keeping the lawn from having its usual pools of standing water.  Brian was able to work with a long-time associate to negotiate a better deal for me on some large tree removal.  Between the tree removal, solving my water problem, designing and installing 3 new beds, and re-gravling my front, Salt Creek Gardens ended up being the perfect one-stop-shop for all my landscaping needs.  I definitely will use them again when it comes time to re-pave my front walk and re-do the back yard.

"This project could have been the type to cause months of stress and frustration with any other contractor, but Christian and the folks at 5th Gen made sure it didn't. We had the floor of an entire room ripped up because of water damage, including the structure down to the dirt and part of the wall. Their estimate was thorough and their pricing was very fair, especially given the level of service. They were always timely, attentive, and professional, and somehow kept the work space very clean. In the end, the only way to tell any work had been done was that it looked better than before. We're looking forward to working with them on some fun projects in the future, like remodeling."

Fountains questions, answered by experts

One reason you may want to fill in your pond is the cost of maintenance. Pond cleaning may cost about $1,000 for an annual cleanup, or monthly visits may cost $75 to $100 per visit. If you don’t want to spend that much per year on pond upkeep, you may consider filling in your pond.

Pond installation costs typically range from $1,500 to $10,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the pond's size, the materials used, excavation requirements, and any additional features such as waterfalls, lighting, or specialized habitats for fish like koi.

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.

Yes, it is possible to make a fountain without a pump, though it may seem less intuitive and will require a bit more effort to use. In lieu of an electric pump, there are a few options including hand-cranked pumps or sprinkler systems that can work to provide water for a fountain.

While they’re popular and have a lot of pros, the cons of river rocks include the following:

  • River rocks don’t break down or provide nutrients to plants. 

  • These stones can get hot and scorch nearby plants. 

  • River stones may heat the surrounding soil to inhospitable temperatures. 

  • Rocks can block rainwater from seeping into the ground if installations are too thick or tightly packed.

Most downsides occur when using river rock as mulch in gardens and flower beds. However, you can still incorporate river rocks into your landscape as long as you use them in the correct ways.
