"Erik was a true professional - very knowledgeable and dedicated to the job. Was always available for any questions or concerns and kept me informed on how everything was going. Would recommend him for any pond and fountain job--10/10. He now has a customer for life!"
"Phenomenal! Damian and two of his employees got right to work promptly at their arrival time. It was laborious work removing concrete and large border rocks. All materials were hauled away. The work was in my front yard, and the area was left neatly completed. Thanks again, Damian."
"We needed a kitchen sink and faucet, a bathroom sink and faucet, and one toilet replaced. In addition, a leaky faucet in our tub/shower required repair. We had a second toilet replaced at a later date. The sinks and toilets were fairly routine and Mastropiero handled them smoothly and efficiently. They were also very helpful in providing specs before doing the job for what we should buy that would fit and be quality. Other plumbers had told us that in order to fix the leaky tub faucet they would have to break through the wall behind the tub. Mastropiero however was able to do it without having to break wall or tile. The job they did is excellent and likely saved us some amount of money and headaches in subsequent repairs. All the jobs are working well and are very attractive. The three technicians who did the work were professional, friendly and polite, and willing to answer all questions. With all the work that houses require over the years, it is nice to be able to rely on a plumber. We will absolutely use them again."
"We needed to have an old deck removed and a new one installed to replace it. Carlos answered our Angi's request very quickly and came out to review the job. Within a few days we had a quote for the job. He listened to what we wanted and was able to begin the work within days. We had a new deck in five days. We are very satisfied with the quality of work and the look of our new deck. He was quick to resolve the one small problem we had by personally handling it. The placement of the deck around our pool posed some tricky problems but the solutions were expertly and beautifully completed. We would highly recommend JNG for your decking needs but also for any other work around your home. We will be using them again for other projects at our home."
"The process was very smooth. Sheerkahn arrived on time and completed the project same day just as they had indicated. They had to dig up the front yard to replace the leaky pipe with the new one, but did a good job filling in the trench. The team was very courteous and kept us informed on the progress. Also showed us exactly where the leak was coming from."
To maintain your pond, you’ll need to occasionally clean your backyard pond, especially if you have koi fish. Test the water twice a week to make sure your fish have everything they need and always remove visible debris.
Regularly clean pumps, remove debris, and monitor water levels to prevent algae growth and clogging.
DIY kits are available, but professional installation ensures proper water flow, electrical safety, and leak prevention.
Yes, your fish should stay alive in a frozen pond if you winterize it properly. By ensuring your pond has enough oxygen, good water quality, and a hole to release harmful gases, your pond and fish have the best chance of staying alive and healthy. However, if you have tropical fish, they should be overwintered indoors.
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.
