“Bryan and his crew installed my pond 4 years ago, and we have him out every year for regular maintenance. The experience every time has been second to none. They are very thoughtful with their ideas/details and thorough with their cleaning. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. Thanks, Bryan, great job.”

I had really great service from Matt. He was on time, super knowledgeable and efficient. He listened to what I asked for and responded to that. Highly recommend him. My water feature looks great now.

The Just Pondering crew helped me out when I discovered our pond was leaking just as we were heading out of town on the hottest July day. They helped me figure out how to keep the pond functioning and fish healthy until they got there and then solved the problem….for the time being. It’s happening again and I haven’t been able to get anyone to call me back. I’m a little worried that they’ve gone out of business. Hope everything is okay!🙏🏼

Bryan performed a pond cleanout on our water feature and now it looks as good as the day we had it built. The rocks are beautiful and clean again so we can enjoy everything without thinking about tackling another cleaning project. Bryan even trimmed our water plants and made numerous suggestions for additional plants and better placement. We will definitely be calling Just Pondering again and highly recommend them.

Bryan and Troy came to clean my koi pond yesterday . We recently purchased the property and surmised the pond has not been cleaned in 2-3yrs. They did an excellent job and my fish and frogs seem very happy now. Strongly recommend this team.

Working from rather vague ideas of what we would like to see in a water feature, Bryan designed, created, and his team installed, a very beautiful pondless waterfall and dry creek in our back yard. In addition to his creativity, Bryan was also very patient in helping us go through the HOA approval process, which took 6 months. The team that installed both projects was very professional and easy to deal with. They worked very well with another company that was installing pavers and landscaping integrated with the waterfall and creek. We are quite satisfied with the process, very happy with the final product and highly recommend their services.

We had a problem of water run off in our backyard. Brian & Crew at “Just Pondering” turned our ditch into an enjoyable stream and pond. The woodland creatures benefit, the neighbors are impressed, and we love it. Thanks, Brian.

We have a 10 year old fountain in front of our house with a fiberglass basin that had a small hole in it. The water level would drop rapidly after we had service performed on a monthly basis. Initially, we thought we just replace the basin, but Bryan had a better idea. He suggested that we get rid of the above ground fiberglass basin and create one underground. I was hesitant at first as I didn't quite understand what we would be getting into. But after several meetings with him, I began to see the clear advantages of doing this. My wife and I are much happier now with our underground basin as it will not be subject to cracks any longer. Also, all of the pumps are hidden and we do not have any algae or wildlife growing in our basin. Bryan also helped install an amazing auto refill system tied into our irrigation, so that a few gallons of water are automatically pumped into the underground basin and we don't have to worry about filling it up any longer. His ability to think outside the box really worked out in our favor. I've included a picture of our fountain from 10 years ago with the traditional above ground basin and a current picture showing the basin below ground (beneath the rock bed).If you ever need help with an outdoor fountain, I would highly recommend Just Pondering!

After a month of looking for someone to repair our leaking fountain (or even get a call back), I reached out to Bryan who stopped by the same week. Within 15 minutes he explained what was happening and offered us several solutions to fix the problem. After getting a quote that night, we confirmed which way we wanted to go, and he ordered the parts we needed. Once the parts came in, Bryan let us know and came out to fix the issue for good. I would strongly recommend Bryan and his company for any of the services they provide. He is responsive, knowledgeable and delivers what he promises. Great Job Bryan, appreciate your commitment!

We just had our pond cleaned out by Just Pondering. They did a 5 star job. Blake and Shane are great to work with and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done perfectly even though we have a 25 year old pond with issues. I will get Just Pondering to take care of our pond for years to come.

We absolutely love our Just Pondering pond. We recently had a water feature converted to a pond by Just Pondering. The team was very punctual and completed all work in the timeframe that they gave for completion. The workmanship is excellent and we now have a beautiful pond to enjoy from our back deck. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to add a water feature to their yard.

Honestly I can not imagine working with anyone else. Byron and his team are the best in the region. By far.They were the fastest to call me back, the fastest to schedule, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, the most honest.My pond and entire set up has continued to grow and grow over time. The Just Pondering team has been there to give me direction, advice, and be honest with all my crazy ideas so I do not make silly mistakes that would have been both expensive and time consuming.A lot of people say they understand building and maintaining ponds, but they don't have the thousands of hours of experience the Just Pondering team does actually building and working on ponds. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I was experiencing water loss in my Koi Pond and suspected a leak. After exchanging a few phone calls Bryan came out immediately to diagnose my leak problem. He was able to isolate it to an area of the waterfall but recommended that we test a temporary fix for a while to be sure. That test confirmed the leak location and he had his crew come out and repair the leak in one day. Not only did that fix the problem but they even improved the appearance of the waterfall. The team was prompt, knowledgeable and professional. I appreciate they were able to do the repair in a timely basis considering this is their busy time of year. I will definitely use them again for future care.

If you want a natural looking water feature, Just Pondering is your answer. My wife and I presented a challenging landscape that was treacherous to garden and Just Pondering turned it into a safe and beautiful tiered garden with an unbelievable water feature that blends into the rest of our landscaping. They added gorgeous rock stairs on both sides of our side garden. Bryan’s installation team did an excellent job laying out the water feature and placing the rocks so they have a realistic natural appearance. Bryan accommodated several additions to the original design always coming up with ideal solutions. I have lost track of the number of neighbors and passer byes that have commented on how awesome our garden is.

These guys have been helping me take care of my koi pond for a few years now. They do an amazing job on the clean outs and always have ideas for how I can care for it better. They added plants to my pond a few years ago and they simply look amazing!! They cut them back when they do a cleaning and then add the cuttings to a new area, so I have more and more beautiful plants every year 🙂

Many companies provide you with a guarantee for the work they provide. But a "guarantee" is only as good as the company that is willing to honor their word and work!The people at Just Pondering is such a company that stands behind the work they provide!From the owner to the workers the experience was so much more pleasing than what I was expecting.The contractor who was doing my outdoor patio had damaged the excellent work that Just Pondering had done. I called them expecting to have to pay for the other company's mistake.Not only did they correct the issue to my satisfaction but also never charged for the work and time.The workers are always professional and keep to the dates and times they provide.I would highly recommend Just Pondering to s anyone who wants high quality work at a fair price!

I have been wanting a pond for a while and contacted Just Pondering based on a the look of a pond they did for a neighbor. Job went extremely well. Steven, the supervisor/foreman was always on site. Bryan checked regularly and was extremely detailed orientated. He is also very creative with his ideas to enhance the features. They finished on time with great workmanship. I was thrilled and added fish. But here is the event that really raised the service bar. About a week after the job was completed, and whilst waiting for the electrician to come and bury the electrical cords, the garden service, despite being warned to stay away from the area, rode over the electrics. The mower chopped the electrics like spaghetti, and caused the pump and lights to blow. The next day was a weekend and I was leaving the country on vacation. So, no water flow for oxygen for the fish and a total mess. I called Bryan and he essentially said..."Go on vacation, I will take care of it". I returned two weeks later and arrived late evening. I was thrilled to see my pond working, night lights on, waterfall flowing and fish swimming. In summary, Just Pondering was efficient, creative, value for money with exceptional service levels.

What a nice professional group. They come when they say they will and complete the project in a timely manner. There maintenance team comes every 2 weeks, completes the maintenance and you know they have been there when you see your pond. Nothing for you to do but feed your fish and enjoy your pond and the waterfall. Thank you my pond has been a pain until I found you!!! If you want a pond or have a pond you can trust this team to build and maintain your pond with excellence.

Bryan consulted with us before starting the project. From the beginning, we knew exactly how much it was going to cost, when the project would start and when it would finish. The installers worked hard and were very polite and knowledgeable!I would highly recommend Just Pondering !

Bryan and his crew were able to quickly help us out this August when a tree destroyed our Koi pond and put our fish in danger. Bryan is passionate and knowledgeable about all aspects of these water features. He instilled confidence and reassurance during a stressful time for us. His crew worked long hours to get our pond quickly back in shape and far better than it was prior to the damage! Highly recommended and we will be using his company for ongoing maintenance. Thank you!

We talked with three other companies before speaking with Bryan. I knew quickly they were the ones for our project. His passion for water features shows and the company focus on just water features was a huge plus.Bryan offered great communication from consult to proposal to scheduling and during the build. Very professional in all aspects of the work. He even suggested some technical solutions as well as contributed to the design of a patio project he wasn't a part of.Our build was a challenge. Hard clay, rocky soil, roots, you name it. The team took the challenge in stride and Bryan didn't beat me up the cost by adding in "unexpected overages." We discussed and surveyed prior to starting and openly discussed the project's difficulties. In the end, the only added costs were of our own doing - Bigger Is Better!I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bryan and team. His crew was great, the work they do is great, and the cost fair for what they did. Now, we have a beautiful stream that adds beauty to our land and soothes my soul. I have Bryan to thank for this!

Whether you are interested in creating a new water feature, or having an existing pond maintained, Just Pondering is the company for you! I cannot say enough nice things about the company and the staff. Their knowledge and expertise is beyond compare. They have been maintaining my pond for me for several years now. They introduced me to underwater lighting, which makes such a difference in the look of the pond at nighttime. If I have a question, they are very prompt in returning my calls or e-mails. You really get your money's worth when they make a service call. My pond has never looked better. I always look forward to the spring "cleanup." I would recommend Just Pondering without any hesitation!

I hired Just Pondering in the Fall of 2015 to install a water feature alongside our stairs, leading down to our new patio. They created a waterfall that was just what I hoped for. Loved it so much, it was the saddest part about moving to a new home, to have to leave that space behind.

I am so impressed with the quality of the water feature that was just installed in my yard. I had 5 Basalt columns installed with a bunch of black rocks at the bottom, and LED lights. Winning yard of the month wasn't exactly hard after all my neighbors saw the finished product! Now the guys at Just Pondering are doing a few of my other neighbors water features. Some of the feedback that I was very grateful for was keeping a clean work zone while the project was going on.Although not cheap, this is something that I wish I had done sooner. I'm just glad I had these guys do the job.It was 76 degrees in February the other day and it was so nice to sit out on the porch and drink coffee and hear the water feature. I tried loading a picture, but my computer isn't cooperating. Thank you for such an awesome home addition!

Bryan and his folks have serviced my small pond for over two years, including cleaning, stocking fish and water plants, and working with my filtration system. They are a small firm that can handle any project, very knowledgeable, and quite dependable. The personal attention is great. This is the first koi pond I have had so it has been great to be able to call him and get his advice on everything from feeding fish, scaring away heron, the right plants, Once they installed some new lights one of which was faulty and they replaced it without hesitation. Homegrown, local folks which is a plus.
