Does anyone have any suggestions for reputable pond builders in or around Pittsburg, PA? I don't have any direct contacts there, so any suggestions of competent contractors would be appreciated.

Thanks!

How big of a pond?
I'm near Pittsburgh and know of some decent guys who have done some ponds.

When I asked the NRCS for names of pond builders they only had one guy on the list. I haven't contacted him yet so I can't vouch for him.

I'll dig out his phone number and PM it to you.

I'm looking for contractors who do both new construction and repair work. For now, I'm just trying to gather names to see who's the best in the area.

I appreciate any suggestions!

Eric

Another good place to look is the equipment dealers.

They can tell you who has been working and how long.

They will know who pays ther bills and that is a good place to start.

Mike, I had never thought of equipment dealers. That's good.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

I'm in the easter suburbs of Pittsburgh.

Let me know if I can help.
