I would agree with much of the above... people rarely come to a discussion board to praise a contractor. Rather, they show up looking for a place to vent about a bad one. In this case, the guy has constructed several ponds in my area, and they're all gorgeous. Now, he has several unfinished "pits" as he calls them. He recently lost several contracts which isn't helping matters. Instead of ceasing his projects, he's been going in, taking all of the valuable dirt, and getting out without finishing the job. That is specifically why my project was at a standstill for quite some time. The guy I have working now is quite knowledgeable and said he can fix it up nicely. See the attached photo for a snapshot of where we sit as of Friday. MODERATOR: Can we move this thread to the "New Pond Construction" area since it's a little better of a fit? Thanks!
