"Our experience with Milligan Scapes was great! We got estimates and while Milligan wasn't the cheapest, we felt very comfortable with Gary and the planned system. They came on a Tuesday and were finished on that Thursday. Both Tim and Franklin were exceptional workers and everything turned out great. I definitely recommend them for any type of work. We are going to have Milligan replace our driveway. So glad to have found a responsible company."

"My experience with him was good.  The quote amount was between $2500 and $10000; it was a wide range.  He was honest.  I think he would have done a good job.  My only thing was that he had to hire an electrician and two other guys.  So it was going to be three separate bills.  He was 30 minutes late."

"The foreman kept close watch on all work as it was done. My only complaint was spotty communication, for example, not letting me know
that the workers wouldn't be at my house on a certain day, or that they didn't work on Fridays. The job also took quite a bit longer than I was initially told. All in all, however, I am very pleased with the results.
My yard is beautiful, appropriate for a desert environment and uses much less water than it did previously. Once the plants and trees get
established and fill out, the yard will look even more amazing and will burst with a variety of colors throughout the year. I am planning to
have additional stone work done on my rock wall and fire pit later this year, and on the patio next year.I am very happy with the final product. I was impatient to get the work finished, and it sometimes seemed that progress was slow, but the yard looks awesome. It also seems much more inviting and usable than it did before this work was done."

Fountains questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, it is possible to make a fountain without a pump, though it may seem less intuitive and will require a bit more effort to use. In lieu of an electric pump, there are a few options including hand-cranked pumps or sprinkler systems that can work to provide water for a fountain.

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.

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.

You have several options for your pond by getting your yard ready for the winter. You can winterize your koi pond by ensuring it’s at least 5 feet deep so it doesn’t freeze completely, installing a pond heater or aerator and having it run at all times, and installing a deicer if temperatures are dangerously low for an extended period. You can also choose to shut down your pond for the winter by removing all the wildlife in it and bringing it indoors, cleaning out the filter and pump, and then covering the pond with a tarp.
