"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!"
"workers did an excellent job and everything looks great. they worked very hard in the hot sun and only took a break for lunch and small water breaks. very happy with the outcome and will use them again in the future."
"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."
In addition to length and width, pond liners also come in various thickness levels. Thickness is measured in mils, a unit of measurement equal to one-thousandth of an inch, with most pond liners ranging from 15 to 60 mils in thickness. The smaller the number, the thinner (and weaker) the liner. To prevent rips and tears, it’s best to choose a pond liner that’s at least 30 mils thick.
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.
Ponds enhance landscapes, support wildlife, and create a tranquil outdoor environment.
Yes, it’s possible to DIY a plunge pool and shave labor costs off of the project total. If you’re considering a DIY build, keep in mind that you will be responsible for pool installation and landscaping (which may require excavation). This type of DIY project is best left to particularly handy homeowners who have prior pool installation experience.
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.
