"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!"
"Highly Recommended! Marc installed a new paver walkway, along with new steps (risers and treads) and new front door landing. Marc really created an excellent design, with all the different material colors blending together so incredibly perfectly. All looks outstanding! The installation and workmanship is perfect! The new walkway, steps and landing have really made such a major difference in the curb appeal of the home! Marc truly is excellent to work with! He went incredibly above and beyond with his service! Ten Stars! Thank you, Marc! Sincerely, Homeowner Michele, The Fairways at Lake Ridge, Lakewood, NJ."
"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."
Installing an outdoor water fountain costs$2,700 on average, not including the cost of the unit. Prices range from $150 to $10,650, depending on your location, the type of fountain, size, and accessibility to the site. Self-contained fountains and water features recirculate the water within the unit. Depending on size and features like multi-tiered cascading bowls, they typically cost from $50 to $5,000. More elaborate fountains with waterfalls and ponds can cost from $450 to $10,000 or more.
One of the most important parts of building a pond is digging the right depth. Your pond needs to be at least one to two feet deep. The specifics of the depth will depend on factors such as the placement of the pond and whether you plan on having fish. If you have fish in your pond, it will need to be at least two feet deep.
How many fish can call your pond home depends on the volume of the pond and the fish size. Your pond's filtration system also influences the number of fish that will thrive in a pond. A general rule of thumb is to have 1 inch of fish for every square foot in a pond that's 2 feet deep. Another rule of thumb you can follow is to have one koi fish for every 200 gallons of water or two goldfish for every 200 gallons.
Natural swimming pools are designed to deter pests, including mosquitoes. While any body of water can potentially attract pests, the natural filtration system keeps the water clean and constantly moving. Mosquitoes specifically are attracted to standing water, so the continuously circulating water in a natural pool makes it an inhospitable environment for them.
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.
