"I would like to first start off that Darian from the beginning is a very nice & professional man, I told him about our pond being so green & overgrown with plants & was smelly for a very long time he came over & gave us an estimate it was very fair price the workers who also were very nice & knowledgeable, they pulled out lilies from the pond that were so tall & cleaned the pond several times washed the gigantic rocks in the pond went up to the waterfall & cleaned that also, pulling out debris & when cleaning the pond they put our 300 gold fish in a holding tank aerated & nice for them came back & put in a new aeration & large filter system & a uv light that will give us crystal clear water in no time, it is so nice to see all the rocks & the fish are so happy they have more pep! they also put river rocks which I love around the front of the pond & we have a bench that we sit on to see the beautiful pond. If anyone wants a beautiful pond Aquarium Design Network New York is the way to go. Kevin & Nancy Smithtown"
"We had a very bad leak in our 4,000g pond. Losing almost 2â a day. Jules came out. Emptied our pond and fixed a few large holes and hundreds of tiny holes. Well, the next morning our pond was CRYSTAL CLEAR & hadnâ t lost ANY WATER! The fish are the healthiest weâ ve seen them in years and love the big cave Jules made for them. I canâ t express what a pleasure he is to work with. Professional, accurate, explained every thing he had to do and DID IT with precision & confidence! Finally, after 20yrs of trying to have ANY COMPANY help us, we found Jules! Would recommend All Island Pond to everyone! Great team Great experience Great outcome.

"We were not in a rush and they accommodated our schedule quite nicely. We had bids from 4 other providers and choose them not because they were the cheapest (they were the third least expensive) but because they were certified by the James Hardie Company and there is a pretty good warranty that applies if we use a certified installer. They showed up early every day and worked til dusk and the crews are not day laborers but are on salary with the company. Installing fiber cement products is fairly tricky and the crews were all experienced and that showed from day one. The pre-installation consults and detail explanation of the work were terrific. The crews paid attention to all the details too and cleaned up each day to a spotless condition.They cam back several times after completion to ask if we had any problems or needed something redone. Our punch list was amazingly small and overall they rated and A+ , to us they were the best. The owner of the company made many visits to our site as did the salesman and of course the crew chief. The skill and deft workmanship of the crews was worth the little extra cost and added to our sense of security along with the Hardie warranty. "
The bacteria already present in your septic system should be enough to break down solids in a properly maintained septic tank. However, if you’re in a DIY mood, you can try adding (well-mashed) rotten tomatoes to help the good bacteria fulfill their duty. Just make sure you give them a couple hours to work after flushing them down.
Depending on the size and location of your septic tank repair job, you may want to let the septic pros finish before tackling other backyard work. However, in some cases, it’s not a bad idea to coordinate between your providers if the timing’s right and your septic repair pro says it’s safe to do so. For instance, if the septic repair work is happening in the fall, you might want to take advantage of the opportunity to prepare your backyard landscaping for winter , or in spring, start mulching the garden beds.
Although cesspits may be necessary depending on your main sewage system access or nearby soil quality, they carry a few drawbacks. Cesspools require regular emptying and have relatively high maintenance and pumping costs. Certain areas also disallow the use of cesspools and may require you to cover the cost of existing cesspools to be converted into septic tanks.
To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.
Common signs that a septic tank is full include plumbing issues, odors, and changes in your yard. You may notice wastewater or sewage backing up into your home's drains, or that sinks, tubs, and toilets are draining slowly. Gurgling or bubbling sounds from the pipes are also a key indicator. Outside, you might smell foul sewage odors around your house or the septic tank area. Look for pooling water, spongy soil, or a marshy environment around the drain field. Another tell-tale sign is a patch of grass over the septic system that is suddenly lusher and greener than the rest of your lawn. If you notice any of these signs, you should contact a septic professional for an inspection and pumping.
