01Ten years of leaking, fixed in under a day
John Sinclair Custom Calls had a pond that had been leaking for over ten years. In less than a day, Kurt excavated the affected area, cut a key way into the foundation, dug clay, and reconstructed the embankment in lifts, compacting each one. The spring-fed pond is full, with no leaks.
I have a pond that has been leaking for over 10 years. Kurt’s knowledge in pond construction was fantastic. In less than a day Kurt excavated the entire affected area, cut a key way into the foundation, dug clay, and reconstructed the embankment in lifts and compacted each lift. I will without a doubt have Kurt and staff to do any future excavating work I need done. My wife and I are thrilled to have our spring fed pond full and no leaks. Thanks Kurt!!!
02Bringing an old pond back
On Corina Swartz's small farm, the existing pond had corroded down to nothing over the years. Bob and Kurt restored it — she's waiting to stock it with fish — and she says they'll discuss ideas and tell you whether something is a practical solution.
Owning a small farm we were really dependent on the existing pond that was on the property. Over the years it corroded down to nothing. Bob and Kurt were able to restore it back to its original glory:) We can't wait to get it stocked with fish now!!! Because of the outstanding work they did we now have them on another project and we can't be happier!! We are able to discuss ideas and they let is know if it's a practical solution. I definitely value their expertise and will be using them on any future project we may have.
03Working around the wildlife
Judson Mantz had a woodland pond reclaimed, and says they were very careful to preserve the wildlife habitat already in place. Jovonna Kegley's wildlife pond has been rebuilt bank by bank over several summers, along with the access road beside it and, earlier, a French drain.
Bob and Kurt did a fantastic job at reclaiming our woodland pond! They are extremely knowledgeable about landscaping and excavation and they were very careful to preserve the wildlife habitat that was already in place. Great workers and very friendly. Highly recommend!
