He took a $2400 deposit and never came back. He is a thief.

We met Christian at the HVCC garden show and his pond & waterfall displays, and enthusiasm, caught our attention.  When he came to our yard for an appraisal he immediately had an eye for exactly the best location for a waterfall feature along our garden fencescaping.  His recommendations sounded intriguing so we trusted his vision.  When Christian showed up for the job he had all the building materials he needed, as well as boulders, rocks and stones of all sizes organized by size in pails.  He outlined his plans and convinced me to allow the waterfall feature to take a little more space than I originally had in mind.  I'm so glad he did....if anything, in retrospect, I wish I had agreed to make it even bigger!  I needed to dig out and relocate a whole section of our garden perennials in preparation for the project, but it was worth all the effort.  Oh my gosh, what amazing work Christian does!  In two days (!) he transformed this huge dug out crater of dirt into a natural looking landscape of banked boulders, tiered waterfalls, and little wells of water among "spilling" rocks and stones. He left pockets of dirt for us to personalize with plants and flowers and even finished the details with driftwood and moss he had foraged from woods and riverbanks.  Each of the three waterfalls are uplighted which makes for a mystical look at night.  It seems the happier we were with the ongoing results the more ideas he came up with to please us.  I start and end each day with a cup of coffee by our waterscape, relaxing with the sounds of a running mountain stream.  We are beyond thrilled with the results! Christian is professional, hard working, and responsive to your questions and concerns, and is only a phone call away when you need a little advice about maintenance.  In a time of questionable commitment from contractors it has been a pleasure to have one who lives up to your trust in every possible way. Artists use their favorite medium to create art.....paint, marble, wood, fabric.  Christian creates art from dirt and stone and his vision transforms into a masterpiece. Thank you, Christian.  You are an amazing artist.

They did a great job, I have already recommended them to other people, their job is really inspiring.

Christian is a responsible and hard-working individual, showed up on time and the finished project is amazing. I had a Koi pond already installed. He removed it and install the new one. It is 1000% better than the original pond three tier waterfall with lights. It is larger than the original, and has steps inside, so I can place water plants throughout. He instructed me how to balance out and maintain my water, which was very helpful, my Koi were very stressed and had algae growth on them. I did not have to isolate them. The new water and chemical balance is doing a fine job healing them I have already placed an order for some lily pads from him. He will be by soon to drop them off and have a chat. If he ever needs any references, I will gladly help him out.
