Jose huezo
5.0
Jose is very knowledgeable about a variety of tasks and works diligently, responsibly and in a timely manner. I appreciate his responsiveness and the way he works. He uses quality products even if it costs him more and does the job completely and correctly. Compared to many other contractors I've used in the past, he is one of the rare people who knows what he's doing, is always pleasant, works hard and wants the job to be done right. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a solid contractor

MIKE ABRAHAMSON
4.0
Mike was recommended by our pond installer, and he said he does 300 pond clean-outs a year. He seemed knowledgeable and experienced. Unfortunately, one of our koi died on the same day as the pond was cleaned (after Mike left). We discussed it with Mike who felt no responsibility. Other than the fish, we were satisfied with his work

He was completely professional. On time for the appointment, professionally dressed, spoke with knowledge and authority, very kind and helpful. Diagnosed our problem, immediately fixed the issue and went beyond his billable task without charging. I fully recommend this company

Horrible! the contractor billed me just under $1400.00 for supposedly repairing the leaks on the pond but did not fix anything! The pond still leaks and I am out $1400.00. The contractor is so dishonest he promised to call and come back to check and the job. He never called. I called to tell him that the pond was still leaking and inoperable. He refused to come back. The man is a crook

French's Waterscapes
5.0
For 15 years, I've been involved with so many remodeling and construction jobs that I have lost count but I've never asked for a company sign. I ask the guys at French's Waterscapes to give me a sign to post on my back fence near a walking trail. I am also a curious neighbor peeking through my neighbor's fences on the trail and I've seen a lot of backyard waterfalls. I already had a waterfall before I found French's Waterscapes, but I always felt that it was missing a certain something. French's Waterscapes definitely brought the "something" to this project. Here's what I started with: Three years ago I had a waterfall built that started at the top of a steep slope, and meandered down the slope about 35 feet, then dropping into an unattractive perfectly round hole about 6 feet in diameter. Water level was 8-10 inches below ground level and was a sludgy green algae mess. A couple years ago I added 6 mosquito fish to take care of the mosquito-breeding problems that came up from the standing water. Two years later I had about ~100 mosquito fish (warning). I started thinking about how I was going to fix the algae mess, and I already knew that the more water the easier it is to manage water quality. My husband wanted to take it all out and put in a pool instead. We've got 2 little ones, 6 and 4 years old that are not swimmers yet. Between the safety concern with having a pool and the idea of a big hole in the ground with salt or bleach water for swimming the idea just didn't appeal to me. I wanted to continue my landscaping theme of natural and wildlife friendly. So I started looking for someone to either help fix the algae problem or demo the whole thing. That's when I found French's Waterscapes. My main concern from the start was always safety and I also care a lot about aesthetics. There's no way I was going to put in a new water feature that required me to change my parenting style. I like for my kids to have free reign in the backyard and be creative on their own. There's something special that happens when kids are allowed to explore their world without direction from the grown-ups, and we're a homeschooling family so my kids spend a ton of time in the backyard creating, learning, and exploring. French's Waterscapes brought an amazing plan to the table. Ultimately they put in a pond approximately 17 x 20 feet with an amazing filtration system. The deepest part is ~36 inches, but covered with grates to create a standing height of ~18". No part of the pond is more than 18" standing height. AND, they had a brilliant idea to create a special beach area off to one side where my girls can hang out in ankle deep water and play. On the opposite end of the pond, is a grown-up area to sit and hang our feet in the water. Love! Every step of the way, the entire crew from French's Waterscape amazed me with their precision and attention to detail. With all the dirt that needed to be removed (~18 yards), shovels just weren't a practical way to get that job done so they brought in a bobcat. My house is cozy with the neighbor, with an opening clearance at the gate of 42 3/4 inches. The bobcat is 42 inches. We did have the option of removing the fence post and gaining another 3 1/2 inches, but I only wanted to do that as a last resort. When the guys went through the gate with the bobcat, they didn't so much as brush against the post. I don't think I could have fit my pinky between the tractor and the gatepost. I barely saw a sliver of sunlight. They drove that tractor all the way to the back yard with not even a scratch on the stucco. ~18 yards of soil was taken out and ~14,000 pounds of big rocks and countless pounds of pebbles were put in. Everyone at French's Waterscapes is very professional, and my project was managed efficiently. My girls literally couldn't wait to get in the pond and start the serious business of playing. While the guys worked my girls got a head start on enjoying the kid area. I think my kid's bike and scooter riding days are over! Words cannot describe how happy I am with everything. This was a well-run project with amazing results. As for my husband, who originally wanted a pool, and was very resistant to the idea of a pond, much less this size, he's already planning an add-on pond with a stream connecting to the one French's Waterscapes just created, and he has made a list of which fish we're adding first. Cash is artistic and creative on a scale I rarely see. Cash's foreman Mike was on this project as well. He knew exactly what was going on every step of the way. The entire crew worked tirelessly the entire time they were here. If you are considering adding a water feature to your garden, call French's Waterscapes

Quote was way overpriced. It was easy to compare prices for materials (stones, liner, etc.) and they were many times what it would cost just to order them myself. They seemed more interested in a maintenance contract than in actually putting a new pond.

Mel removed our giant koi, drained the pond, cleaned all of the sludge (and there was a lot of it), repositioned the liner and the surrounding rocks (and mortared them where they needed to be secure), raised the waterfall in order to get more rushing water sound, and changed the pump to one that he thought was a better size for the system. After he finished, he came back the following day and decided that we should have an even larger pump and changed it with no additional cost. Our pond is beautiful with a great sound and the koi are MUCH happier. He actually inspired us to re-landscape the adjacent area. Our back yard has never looked better. Mel is a gem. We have now hired him to provide quarterly maintenance so that we can maintain our pond and keep the koi happy and healthy

PONDMAGIC WATER GARDENS

Tim and his wonderful crew created a beautiful 1600 gallon waterfall and cascading stream in our garden. Tim transformed my crude little sketches into a brilliant oasis that wildly exceeded our expectations! Tim responded quickly whenever there was a question and his workers were hardworking, careful, and neat. The falls and pond are performing beautifully and the yard is already attracting hummingbirds, dragonflies, and even a big green spotted frog! We now have our little piece of paradise in our own back yard thanks to Pond Magic! We went with Tim for our project after talking to another pond builder who wanted to take down our front yard fence and drive a small Cat into the back yard to do the digging. By contrast, Tim's workers did all of the work by hand, wheelbarrow, and sometimes incredible ingenuity

I was disappointed that i never got a quote. I had them come out and talked in-depth about possibilities and was told I'd have a quote in my inbox within a few days. I never received a quote and no follow up. Since I was specifically shopping around for a more reliable pond service that did a better job of communicating, I was dismayed

Steve Capper is the owner. He came out to look at a pond that is currently on the property. It is an existing pond. The water was green and brackish. He came out. He is very personable and obviously cares a lot about plants and water. He fearlessly plunged his arms into the green water. I asked him quote for several scenarios like what if I just want to upgrade what I have, what if I just want to fix it, and what if I want to upgrade the general area and stream, and what if I want to add landscaping around it. He came with a complete competitive quote that addressed all my questions. I was not sure what I wanted, but the quote that he gave me gives me a lot of information about what I can choose. The maximum upgrade price that he quoted was about $3500, but just cleaning and making sure that the hoses and everything works was only about $900. I told him that I was interested in a thing that looked very natural and that wild life would be attracted too. He automatically responded with lots of information about the kinds of environment that he could set up. I also looked at his website and he is capable of doing a very sculptured and modern work as the people want. I think he is flexible. I liked him. He is a nice intelligent person. I would use his service in the future too

He gave a free estimate and because it was completely out of my affordable price range I did not pursue the project. I am now getting more estimates and am hoping to have a Koe pond and small falls before summers end.

THE URBAN FARMER STORE

I have spent much time in the store asking questions and trouble shooting problems with our irrigation, pond pumps and general landscaping questions. Every person I have dealt with in this shop have been top rate, very knowledgeable and have answered questions and or fixed my problems with pumps, leaks and other issues with our irrigation. This time we finally put lighting into our garden. We originally purchased through the Orchid Show auction some LED lighting that Urban Farmer had donated to the Orchid Society. Tom Bressan, the owner, helped us design, experiment and install the lighting in our garden. He answered all of our questions, gave us some ideas, we tried it out one night and then he came back to install the final placement of the lights. I would definitely recommend Urban Farmer for your landscaping needs

Extremely difficult to deal with him, and get him to finish the project . He said it was a 2 or 3 week project but in 4 months it's still not complete ......other professionals who have looked at his work pointed out to me how he built it in such a way as to need his constant service.... i.e. he put in plants that will die over the winter and need replacing and the filter is not adequate for the pond , also needing his constant service, and he's been very nasty about putting in one that will work. he's been pretty unpleasant to deal with from the beginning, full of anger or excuses ....... I think he took advantage of me and built the pond in such a way as to create my dependence on him to keep it working. I wouldn't mind that so much if I could depend on him to do as he promises but I can't . Note: 6 months in the pond is leaking 2 inches a day ......
