"The fountain pump ended up dying. Rocky replaced the pump & had the fountain running within 2 hours. He was on time & knowledgeable. Highly recommend."
"This crew (Josh and Nate) arrived promptly as scheduled. Explained how the light would be installed and how it would look (centered/height etc.). As it was one of over 90 degree days, I offered them something cold to drink (ice tea). When I came back in the installers had put carboard down and placed the glasses so that they would not leak on the counter. After installation, everything was swept up and the counter was wiped down. We have had this company work on a generator install and propane line hook up for our stove some time back. The were as pleasant, courteous and showed concern that we were satisfied with every move. I would only want Josh and Nate for furture work!"
"Everything went perfect.These guys I can't say enough about,pleasant,respectful,and most of all hard workers.I am going to call them back to do the front yard. Excellent Work"
"James was very polite and professional when I talked to him about going out and taking a look at the property. He called me back very quickly for a quote and description of the repairs that were to be done. He was there within 3 days to do the work and finished that day. The price was very reasonable and he did not try haggle me into repairing the entire roof, which prior to me calling him, two other roofers told me the entire roof must be replaced. I knew the entire roof did not need to be replaced at the time. James is a very professional and trusworthy contractor that I would recommend to anyone."
"He was here and did the job. No problem and good work. I'll recommend him for everything. When he tells you to come he'll be there. When you have questions they'll call you back within the day."
"Patriot ‘76 installed 2 new irrigation systems for me and repaired another. They were great. Quality work, showed up when they said they would and were all around pleasant to work with. I recommend them to anyone needing any type of landscaping or irrigation work done!"
In short, yes, a pond can add to your home’s value. However, whether it adds value will depend on the condition and aesthetic of your pond. Having this feature already built into a yard’s home can be appealing to homebuyers who value its aesthetic and would prefer not to build it themselves. But if it is not kept in good condition, it could turn buyers away.
Most pond installations take 3-10 days, depending on excavation, liner placement, and filtration setup.
Natural swimming pools are designed to deter pests, including mosquitoes. While any body of water can potentially attract pests, the natural filtration system keeps the water clean and constantly moving. Mosquitoes specifically are attracted to standing water, so the continuously circulating water in a natural pool makes it an inhospitable environment for them.
One reason you may want to fill in your pond is the cost of maintenance. Pond cleaning may cost about $1,000 for an annual cleanup, or monthly visits may cost $75 to $100 per visit. If you don’t want to spend that much per year on pond upkeep, you may consider filling in your pond.
DIY kits exist, but professional installation ensures proper filtration, landscaping, and leak-proof construction.
