"Mike was very consistent. If he said he would be here, he was here. Quick response on quotes, hard working crew, beautiful plants and always so helpful. If he did not know something he would find out for you. He also called to stay in touch if he got busy or the weather was not cooperating. I highly recommend."
"Prior to starting the job, Dig Safe was notified and scheduled a survey of vital areas on the property. Day 1 started with the removal of the plastic edging and flag placement for all sprinkler zones. The next day the garbage was removed from site and there was a wait until Dig Safe survey was completed. In the weeks to follow, Excavation was conducted in a logical way as to minimize large machinery travel over the lawn. My immaculate lawn was pretty much destroyed and Rick assured my that it will return to normal. I want to note that at the end of there work day the work areas were cleaned up and areas that were potentially hazardous were roped off with yellow tape. The patio was the first to be completed, followed by parts of the house perimeter sailor border then the pool perimeter border. The front steps were brought in next and they encountered issues with the Granite pieces. Gagne and Sons were quick in the response of getting replacement pieces the next day. Finally, the asphalt driveway was removed and the excavation had begun. With the Driveway installation completed, They tied in all the sailor border areas that were not yet completed and focused on lawn repair. The Lawn repair was also coordinated with irrigation relocation and repair. This was a little frustrating due to the scheduling difficulties. I have to say the Ronnie of Casco Bay Irrigation worked several weekend days to get things ready between different stages of the project. I am quite pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend Organics Lawn And Landscape to anyone. Go to Orgaincs Lawn and Landscape LLC on Facbook to see for yourself.
"The project involved having to open the ceilings in the downstairs part of our home in order to correct upstairs heating issues. A fair estimate of materials and time costs was presented, but once opened up the work needed was more extensive than thought. After plumbing work was completed, sheetrock was put back up. There were 6 rooms and a hallway that were worked on. Mudding and sanding was completed, but estimated hours were not correct. Ross Janelle worked with me to come up with a fair cost, which amounted to what I had planned for. I hired Ross to also complete the painting of ceilings and color match the walls. Very pleased with the final results."

Space may not permit you to install the fountain you want.
Koi fish should be in the shade and can’t be directly exposed to the sun. Consider building your koi pond in a shaded spot or hanging an awning over the top to control the amount of sunlight coming in. Learn how to design a landscape properly.
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.
A good rule of thumb is to change 5% to 15% of your koi pon’s water every week. Partial water changes help keep your koi healthy, and replacing small amounts at a time prevents causing stress for the fish.
Yes, natural pools can get algae since they use the same filtration processes as lakes or streams. However, you can reduce the risk of algae by adding more algae-fighting plants and not installing your natural swimming pool in direct sunlight, as it promotes algae growth.
