"This company came highly recommended. They seem very knowledgable and environmentally conscious. We have been pleased with their work. There have been a couple of small things that are annoying. Once, the service provider called my cell phone and left a message, but never rang the bell. We were home and he could have saved us all significant effort. Another time, someone came out for a problem, but the work order did not detail the specific problem we had called about. Again, a small problem, but he wasted his time investigating something that was already being addressed and then having to refocus on the problem at hand. "
"We received five quotes from top Columbus area inground pool companies, and Kirkbride was the clear choice. David came prepared with samples, photos, and a full walkthrough of the installation process. Unlike other companies that required us to prep the area ourselves, David assured us Kirkbride would handle everything. He listened, understood our needs, and offered more value, larger pool options and better equipment even though the price was only slightly higher. The installation was outstanding. The entire team was professional, friendly, and informative. We were home throughout the project and asked many questions, and the crew always took time to explain. Their workmanship and professionalism were exceptional. A special moment deserves recognition: on the final day, team member Parker helped an elderly neighbor transfer from a wheelchair into a minivan. He did it without hesitation. That act of kindness speaks volumes about the character of the Kirkbride team."
"Dublin Plumbing just completed a remodel of my master bathroom and did a wonderful job! The workmanship is as good as it gets and I finally got the bathroom of my dreams in our new Columbus house. We were so pleased with his work we asked him to install a new tankless water heater system for us at the same time (he'd diagnosed our old tank unit as being almost ready to fail due to a leak from the bottom of the tank) which runs flawlessly and is so much better than the old unit.
Jim was professional, straight-forward and prompt. He did exactly what he said he would and delivered everything we hoped he would. He went the extra mile for us by throwing in a little extra plumbing at no extra cost when he'd spotted the bad job our previous contractor had done on old water heater, which was really nice.
I'd recommend Dublin Plumbing to anyone in the area and have already referred Jim to a friend! "
"Andrew and team did a wonderful job. They took the time to make sure the mulch is laid evenly and the lines flow nicely around the beds. Our yard has never looked better and we got a lot of compliments from our neighbors too. Andrew is a super nice guy and a pleasure to work with. We are super happy with their work and will definitely use them again."
"When they started the project, the concrete which was already cracked, seemed to be coming up pretty well. When that was removed, they found a lot more gravel under the concrete than they anticipated so it was an additional time and expense to remove that. The garage sill had to be repoured and they began installing the correct type of gravel and pounding down the base. Being April, it rained a lot in there and it slowed the progress as you can imagine. Can't do much about the weather. I also had some blocks on my garage foundation that were loose so they refilled the mortar to stabilize the foundation. This is when we found that the gutter drain pipes were broken and clogged. They installed new piping and we cleaned out the remaining pipes before installing the pavers. By having the "O" in the middle, it made for a lot more cuts and took some additional time but it was worth it. They sealed the driveway and finally they installed the sod around the edges. Along the way Jake had to deal with a major personal issue but handled it very well. Jake and his crew did a very good job and handled all the little things that came up very professionally. I don't know of any other contractor who would have worked with me the way they did. In my opinion, they provided me with a great finished product and I would use them in the future. "
"Loren came out and talked through my ideas, gave suggestions. The dry creek bed is beautiful, neighbors are giving me compliments daily. Very happy, I will be using Local Gardener for my future projects."
"Work went well, they showed up at a HUD eviction house I have, the entire house was empty by days end, they even took the flooring too to help get the stintch out."
"He was fantastic! Very reasonable and the workmanship was /is outstanding! Plus, a great sense of humor and precision when he works! We will be hiring him again!"
Whether a natural pool is worth it depends on several factors because they cost more than traditional pools. Many people opt for natural pools because they enjoy swimming in natural bodies of water such as lakes. Also, if you're environmentally conscious, a natural pool is going to be a much more attractive option than a traditional pool.
Moreover, for people with chemical sensitivities, a natural pool is a great solution since the water doesn’t contain chlorine.
Seeps and springs form when groundwater reaches the earth’s surface. The main differences between them are the amount of water and the flow rate. Seeps are smaller than springs and consist of water that’s stagnant or flows slowly. Springs contain more water and flow more quickly.
Because frogs require fresh water for survival, they can die from repeated exposure to swimming pool chemicals. Chlorine dehydrates frogs, which can lead to their deaths. To ensure frogs don’t hang out in your pool for long periods, safely remove them once you spot them in your pool and install a frog log so they can easily hop out on their own.
A koi pond may add value to your home if it’s a feature sellers are looking for. Like pools, ponds can affect your property value depending on their condition, whether they’re a popular selling point, and how well they’re incorporated into your home’s landscape.
Regularly clean pumps, remove debris, and monitor water levels to prevent algae growth and clogging.
