    We worked with Stephen to clean out and repair our leaking pond that hadn't been maintained for 2.5 years. I was easily able to schedule a day with him, and him and his crew were able to start and finish the work in one day. They were vey thorough and professional and now our pond is no longer leaking and looks and smells amazing. My only regret is that I wish I had called Stephen sooner so we could've enjoyed the pond the years we were living in this house. We will be working with him for regular maintenance services in the future.

    I can see our fish again!

    I have worked with the Pond Doctor for a number of years. It's a great company; the guys who has serviced our pond have always been pleasant and communicative. This time of year, we desperately needed a full cleanout. Leo did a fantastic, thoughtful and thorough job. So much pennywort and mint! He got it all. Now that our fish are bigger he also adjusted many of the rocks and slate to make bigger caves for hiding from the heron and raccoons :) - beautiful work.

    My parent's house came a fish pond when they purchased it, and it was cleaned, about a decade ago. Let's just say these little fishies needed some fresh Oxygen. The algae was becoming toxic, so I reached out to the Pond Doctor. Shamus was my initial contact, we briefly discussed my pond needs, and set up an appointment. Stephen & Alex from the Pond Doctor team came to rescue the pond, and man these guys worked hard and did an amazing job. They cleared out 3-4 feet of pond mud!!! Now, it may sound gross, but that mud has some dope nutrients, so we added it to our garden. Fingers crossed for avocados. Shamus and Stephen provided equipment suggestions that would work best, and what a difference. Bigger pump (one suitable for the size of pond we have), and a filtration system with UV lighting to combat algae. A much better setup. Alex & Stephen utilized piping left from the original owners, for the pump waste, positioning it in a way to dump it into our garden, they reused some of the rocks and statue structure, and took bricks that we had and made a fish playground. We are so thrilled, and unfortunately, so will the stray cats that sometime roam in the neighborhood, who will now be able to see the fish. Alright ya'll I gotta buy more plants to protect the pond. Bye!

    I can't say enough for the amazing job Matt did on our pond. So polite, and professional. They went above and beyond what I have experienced with other pond companies. I love supporting local small businesses and these guys will not disappoint. Just have a iced coffee waiting if they Matt comes early!

    See all

    On the day of service, Alex got here on time and spent most of the day to repair my pond and clean the pond.

    MC Landscaping did a wonderful job with our front and backyard project. Sal, Johnny and crew worked…read moreon our project. Sal came out to talk to me about the project. He is friendly, honest, easy to talk to ,and knows his plants! We had a drip system installed and new plants put in four planter boxes in the front yard. Looks great. In the backyard, a drip system was installed and new rock was put in the planter box.There were 2 incidents with the backyard project that left me unhappy. The first one was the wrong rock was being put in. I told the crew to stop and I called Sal. He and Johnny were on it immediately. Sal had the crew remove the rock, he found a new place that had the rock i wanted and it was delivered and the crew put it in. That was a long hard day of work for them. The next day I noticed a small area did not get the new rock and my planter was damaged. I called Sal, sent him photos of the planter and rock. He said he would take care of it and he did! the next morning Johnny and crew were back bright and early with more rock and materials to fix the planter. Sal is a man of his word.He takes pride in his work and wants his customers happy. If you are not happy with something, Sal makes it right. I highly recommend MC Landscaping. Thank you Sal, Johnny and crew!

We received four different estimates, all in a similar price range, but what set McLandscape apart was their exceptional customer service. Their attention to detail and commitment to clear communication throughout every stage of the project made all the difference. We always felt informed, heard, and confident in the process. The final result exceeded our expectations--we absolutely love our new backyard! A special shoutout to Leo, the foreman, who was a huge plus throughout the project. He was always available, responsive, and made sure everything ran smoothly. We highly recommend McLandscape to anyone looking for quality work and a team that truly cares about their clients.

    I hired Timeless Ponds and Fountains to restore a fountain that had been reconfigured and…read moresubsequently failed. The job required reinstallation of a basin that had been removed, replumbing the fountain to move a pump into the basin, and then providing a replacement cover for a part that had been disposed of by accident. The work was done in pretty much one morning and was performed excellently. The basin was set and carefully leveled, the fountain plumbing was addressed, and everything is working great again. Chris did this work on a pretty warm day but really paid attention to the details. Now to add some river stones and plantings around the edge.

    I contacted this company for help with an outdoor fountain pump issue and sent photos of the setup…read moreas requested. They replied that they would have to pass on the job, without offering any explanation, referral, or guidance. I understand not every company takes every job, but the response felt dismissive and unhelpful, especially after I had taken the time to send details and photos. Based on this interaction, I would not contact them again. Update: Matt called me personally to apologize for the brief response and explain that my fountain issue was outside the scope of what they could take on. He also gave me helpful advice about who to contact next. I appreciated the follow-up and it made me feel much better about the whole interaction. Although they weren't able to help with my specific issue, I respect that Matt took the time to call and clarify things.
