"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."
"Victor ... I think that's the right name ... was very informative and yet fun as he worked on my project (replaced leaky hose faucet and its indoor cut-off valve). He ALSO quoted replacement of the leaky hose faucet on the front of my house, but advised saving my money by not doing that. I liked that he tried to save me money. For example, he showed me that one leak was really a leaking hose, not faucet. To prove it, he put his own hose on my faucet and then offered to trade: my cheap, leaking hose for his professional one."
"I had framing issues re-corrected on a new construction 2 family dwelling. Terry and his framer "Brasil" did quality work by re-framing the ceiling and the arch on the 2nd floor balcony. They did structural repairs and corrections since the previous framers botched up the house. Terry was responsive and helpful throughout the whole ordeal. I would definitely recommend TMC Construction for general contracting issues. They do neat and quality work at a reasonable price. Also, it is a plus that he is aware and knowledgeable with the framing codes Jersey City enforces. He made sure everything was done correctly for the framing to pass inspection. "
Ponds enhance landscapes, support wildlife, and create a tranquil outdoor environment.
Frogs may love your yard and want to take up residence for several reasons. Yards can offer a moist environment or access to water. Frogs also eat insects—your yard may offer a steady stream of their preferred diet, such as grasshoppers, crickets, fruit flies, and more.
Though there are a lot of factors that go into caring for a koi pond, the most important maintenance you can do is frequent water checks using a koi pond test strip that checks the water for dangerous conditions. In addition to regular pond maintenance costs, you’ll also need to winterize your koi pond if you live in a colder area.
A koi pond should be at least 5 feet deep to keep the fish healthy and ensure they don’t freeze in winter. Koi fish are also known for growing large, so the more room you have, the better. A larger koi pond size will allow the fish to grow bigger than a smaller one will, and the more fish you have, the bigger the pond you’ll need. Learn how to build a pond in your backyard to ensure it remains functional and aesthetically pleasing for a long time.
When deciding whether or not to turn off your pump, you should consider your area’s climate and the aquatic life in your pond. If you live in an area with freezing winter temperatures and don’t have any wildlife, keeping your pump on could damage it. If you have aquatic life but live in a colder climate, you might consider keeping your pump running and adding a pond heater.
