History
Established in 1996.
Action Construction & Landscaping Services did everything - mowing lawns, yard clean-ups, landscaping projects, building renovations and additions, Unilock patios and sidewalks, and more. In 1999, Mark began installing water features along with the patios, sidewalks, and landscaping. Not only did Mark love the ponds, waterfalls and fish, but his customers did as well. Nine years later - January 2005, Mark officially changed the name of the business to Action Water Gardens, Inc.
Originally the retail division of Action Water Gardens, Inc. was in his garage in Vernon, Connecticut. As the business expanded, it didn't take long to outgrow the garage and the business moved to its present location in Tolland, Connecticut. Mark renovated the overgrown landscape and a dilapidated barn at 47 Hartford Turnpike to the spectacular showroom and certified wildlife habitat it is now.
