Friendliest dragonfly
Meet Chopper, the friendliest dragon fly that I have ever met in my life. He started to come over every time I fed the fish and landed right next to me. He even brought his girl friend with him sometimes. Now we become best friends, I can pet him, talk to him, take pics, and even have him land on my hand. Coolest creature ever! He loves the beautiful pond that you guys at Pond Gnome did for us. It's always the center of attention!

Everything that I expected and more
I had a small waterfall. Water bill went up $20. No leaks in irrigation. A friend of mine who is a master gardener said the Pond Gnome is the best! Everything that I expected and more was done. I have the back door open all the time to hear the water. It so relaxing to me.

Beautiful habitat
They did an awesome job. I needed a pond redo and they took very good care of my fish that had to be moved for the redo and even lovingly boxed up the wild toads that were living in my pond. They have an excellent eye for design. They were on time, worked well as a team and looked pretty happy with their job and coworkers. The job started on time and completed 1 day early. I'm so happy I had them redo my pond. I've been working a lot of OT and it's so nice to begin the day feeding my fish in a beautiful habitat and in the evening I sit outside again to watch the sparkling waterfall and fish. I heard about them on Rosie on the House. I just wish I had the pond made bigger.

Surpassed our imaginations!
I drove my husband nuts for 2 years looking and found a stream The Pond Gnome did at West Valley Rock. I liked the idea of a stream and how natural it looked. Paul visited our yard and created in his mind what we wanted. And low and behold, it surpassed our imaginations! They turned our ugly pond into a living stream beyond our imagination! Paul and his team worked closely with us all through the process. They paid attention to details and are truly artists!

Exceeded our expectations
We needed some tweaking on an existing 'stream'. The Pond Gnome has an amazing reputation a he is the gold standard for water features in the Valley. Now, it has exceeded our expectations and we're thrilled.

Our Little Bit of Paradise!
Want to let you and your crew know just how pleased we are with the pondless waterfall you created for us in June. We waited out the hot Summer before putting in any landscaping and although the plants have some growing to do, we spend lots of time just sitting and admiring the beauty and lovely sound of the water cascading over the rocks. We love how you incorporated many of the rock features from our old koi pond along with some beautiful larger rocks to create a design that is so aesthetically pleasing. All of your team members were so pleasant, hardworking and got the job done on schedule. A renovation such as this one is a messy job, but each day your work crew had the mess contained before leaving. Thank you so much for creating our little bit of paradise!

Soothing Sound
There’s nothing better than the soothing sound of waterfall and reading near a colorful pond . I’ve enjoyed this pond every season for the last two years!

Professional, efficient and perfectionistic
Our experience with the entire staff of The Pond Gnome was so positive. Paul talked us through what we could expect our water feature to look like and the written contract contained all items that we spoke about. No deletions or surprises. The construction crew arrived on time each day, were prepared with the necessary materials and always stated what they were to do on that day. Any questions or concerns that we had were addressed to our satisfaction. At the end of each day they cleaned up and prepared for the next day of construction. They were professional, efficient and perfectionistic. Especially the person who we dubbed the 'rock whisperer!' (Roy) We would highly recommend this company.

Totally charming
I love my new turtle and fish pond! Even though my project was small, Paul made sure it looked totally charming. For a year, my “pond” consisted of a kiddie pool and unattractive filter system. I spent a lot of time taking care of it. I know Roady, my turtle, and her fish friends are so much happier and so am I!!!

Better than therapy
I love my pond! Better than therapy! Nothing like sitting by the pond, feeding the fish and getting in the pond to clean it is truly rewarding!

So relaxing
I was an absentee customer meaning I wasn't there when they built my two tier water fall. We discussed our plans going over all pros and cons via email. Paul came out and we discussed the final plans and the rest is history. I received daily pictures on the progress of my waterfall as it was being built. My neighbors came over to see what was going on and they were extremely pleased at the professionalism of the crew and the tidiness of the project. When I'm home I spent most of my time in the backyard sitting on my patio. It's so relaxing just listening and watching the waterfall… I absolutely love my waterfall! Thank you Paul and Barbi!

First-rate craftsmanship
The work was done quickly and professionally with the final results being amazing. They listened to our ideas and pictures to provide us with a detailed plan of what to expect and the cost. The guys were friendly, efficient, and skilled. First-rate craftsmanship with incredible results. You pay for quality, but I would consider this a bargain. True craftsmen, the Pond Gnome will help take your yard over the top with a beautiful water feature and a good price. The company is professional, efficient, and kept us in the loop through the whole process.

Best pond ever
We have had one of those preformed ponds for several years and they are really hard to keep clean. If we were going to keep a pond in our backyard I wanted one that was easy, fit into our backyard design and one our dogs would love too. The pond created by Paul and Barbi turned out perfect! It has a little walk-in for the dogs and a small lazy river off the side of the pond with a gorgeous waterfall. I was not sure about what I really wanted. Somehow they took my vague ideas and turned them into the best pond ever. I could not have envisioned a better design and can't stop gushing to anyone who will listen. I could not be happier with the pond. It turned out perfect.

Enjoyed working with The Pond Gnome
I have really enjoyed working with the Pond Gnome! Every one I have talked to has been really knowledgeable about ponds and water features in general and also seem very well acquainted with the pond they service at one of our rental properties. I absolutely recommend them to anyone with a pond or considering installing one.

Exceeds our expectations
Had a beautiful inner courtyard large Koi Pond installed by The Pond Gnome. From the bid to the final install, everything went great. All personnel were friendly, knowledgeable, and very tidy. They installed it very quickly even with the rain. It exceeds our expectations. The waterfall and rocks that cover the equipment is gorgeous to look at and listen too. The pond, fish and plants are wonderful. We couldn't be more pleased. We would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting a beautiful and high quality pond.

Very peaceful
The pond and stream really completes the back yard. It is very peaceful and has drawn us outside and away from the television.

EXCEED expectations
All the normal complaints about contractors...disorganized, over budget, workers not supervised. poor quality, not noting clients comments or input, etc....none of these apply to The Pond Gnome. Once the basic plan is done they have a proven formula to construct the pond and EXCEED expectations. We would recommend them to both the novice and experienced by owners.

I love, love, love it and enjoy many hours just listening to the water, or watching hummingbirds take baths, or have a quick drink. Your guys were all awesome, timely and pleasant to work with. The entire experience was beyond my expectations. Thank you so much!

Best contractors we have ever worked with
From the moment we met at the Home and Garden Show right up to the final installation, we were always treated courteously and professionally. Paul and his crew are one of the best contractors we have ever worked with. They always wanted to make sure we were not just happy with our pond installation, but ecstatic. We have had so many wonderful compliments. Thank you Pond Gnome for a magnificent pond!

Best investment we ever made
My husband, who begrudgingly gave in to my pleas for a pond, now thinks it's the best investment we ever made. We have spent more time in the back yard in the past month than in the 13 years we have lived in the house! I am sharing photos with my coworkers and enthusiastically praising The Pond Gnome!

Mesmerizing
Paul and Barbi and the entire Pond Gnome staff feel like family. They are courteous, knowledgeable, and professional. I have enjoyed my pond every day since it was installed over five years ago. The sound of the water cascading down the waterfall is so relaxing and watching the fish is mesmerizing. I run a boutique dog boarding business from my home and the pond has been a huge hit with the dogs - and their owners. The large dogs will get all the way in the pond while smaller ones will just drink from the stream. Most dogs won't go near my pool because it is too deep for them but all dogs are able to find a spot to cool themselves in my pond. Plus, the fish are great entertainment for the dogs. The Pond Gnome installed small caves so the fish can hide from predator birds as well as from playful dogs. I highly recommend The Pond Gnome.

Quality and pride of workmanship
We had already paid someone to put in a pond before we met Pond Gnome. After seeing Paul's work, we had him deconstruct and re-build. From just my verbal description he built exactly what I was thinking of. Paul supervised the entire construction. He also freely shared his knowledge on other parts of our landscaping. His followup and maintenance has been superb and we are very pleased. We had occasion to add 2 red eared sliders from our daughter's science room and both they and the goldfish are flourishing. We wish could get this quality and pride of workmanship from all of our vendors.

The pond creates a peaceful setting
When we purchased our home seven years ago we hoped to create a sanctuary in our small city yard - a place where we could find peace in our busy lives and recharge our spirits. We love wildlife and designed our habitat with plantings that would encourage butterflies, hummingbirds and other birds to visit. For years we were excited to have several monarch butterflies visit during their migration and would find 20 to 25 monarch caterpillars. With the loss of monarch habitat we wanted to do more. We worked with Pond Gnome to design and create a pondless stream and butterfly seep. The change of habitat was just amazing. Since September we have had over 500 caterpillars in our yard and monarch butterflies (and other butterflies, too) flying through the air! The pond creates a peaceful setting where we can escape the pressures of every day life.

Words cannot describe
I LOVE my waterfall, stream and fire-pit!!!!!!!! Words cannot describe how much I'm enjoying it. I sat out by it last night and could have sworn I was out in the woods at a campsite. I told my boyfriend that when he gets back we are setting the tent up out there. How cool is it that we can leave the city and still be able to go inside and use the restroom?! Heck, we even have a few bears roaming around out there to add to the experience. O.K. they're just big dogs, but we'll still have to hang our food in a tree! Thanks again, it is so refreshing to see a company that truly works so hard to deliver a product with such enthusiastic professionalism.

Exactly what we were looking for
It was great working with you to design our pond. It is rare to have a contractor actually listen to what the homeowner is striving for but I felt like we were partners in the project every step of the way. The end result was exactly what we were looking for, a natural looking water feature that would not only be the focus of our back yard but would provide a place for us to play our instruments, attract wildlife and forget we live in a huge city. Your crew was hard working and meticulous every step of the way and went beyond the usual to make sure the final result was prefect. We really appreciated that they were here every day, on time and concentrated on this job until it was complete, including, on the final day, leaving the job site cleaner than when they started. We are looking forward to next years Pond Tour and proudly saying that The Pond Gnome built it.

Truly beautiful
We are thrilled with the stream that you and your great team built for us. It is truly beautiful. We are so excited that we now get to keep the windows open at night so we can hear the stream all night long. Everyone who sees it is amazed at how wonderful it is. We literally have troops of neighbors coming over to peer in the view fence to see what all the fuss is about! As gorgeous as the stream is, I also have to tell you that you and your team are the most professional outside consultants I have worked with. I simply could not be more pleased!

We are thrilled with the stream that you and your great team built for us. It is truly beautiful. We are so excited that we now get to keep the windows open at night so we can hear the stream all night long. Everyone who sees it is amazed at how wonderful it is. We literally have troops of neighbors coming over to peer in the view fence to see what all the fuss is about! As gorgeous as the stream is, I also have to tell you that you and your team are the most professional outside consultants I have worked with. I simply could not be more pleased! As a real estate consultant you can be sure that I will be singing your praises to all my clients and will recommend you with the highest praise.

Design to die for
The Pond Gnome and his crew are amazing. We had previously had a waterfall feature which needed updating - this was no small task... 1st, The existing cement which had been poured (in the 1960's) on top of flagstone (we live on the side of a mountain made of solid rock) had to be jack hammered out and removed. There is too much to get into about the whole process - but I will say, during all this process, they were extremely careful with our lawn which was the only access, so they laid down large planks to protect it. They were very clean, left everything spic n span and the design is to die for. The detail, well it is above what we ever had expected. You cannot hear a motor running, just the waterfall itself. It is absolutely soul healing and relaxing. We already have some new projects with Paul and Barbi on the burner and cannot wait to be able to have them and their professional expertise add a few more beautiful and tranquil features around our property. If you're looking for a true professional, with an eye for detail and the perfect design in a particular area, he's your guy. What was also surprised us is his rates are very, very reasonable.

Made the whole neighborhood jealous
We could not possibly be more happy with our pond. Although it was not our intention, we have made the whole neighborhood jealous. Everyone who comes to our home, upon seeing it, comments on how beautiful and relaxing our pond is. And they're right! It's our family's favorite place to be. We sit outside for a long time together every day and just enjoy watching the fish and listening to the entrancing whisper of the fountain. Thank you for making our home our vacation place!!

Very satisfied
Both my husband and I are in love with our pond and are very satisfied with the way you and your nice/competent men put it together. Barbi too, is a REAL asset. We love sitting outside and watching and hearing our pond and wish there was a POND CLUB that we beginners could come to and seek help and additional ideas. Whenever I had questions and concerns - Paul and Barbi addressed them and promptly got me going in the right direction.

Nicest addition to our home
Our pond has been one of the nicest additions to our home. Not only do our kids play outside more, but I have a favorite spot for my morning coffee. In the evening, my husband and I will have a drink and unwind by the waterfall. I'd give up the phone and TV before I'd give up my pond!!

Love our pond
We love our pond! It appears our turtles do too, Once, when I took them out, they headed right back to the pond; couldn't go fast enough!

First class all the way
This was our second pond building experience, thankfully we picked Paul for this large project. Paul and his guys are first class all the way. I could not be happier with the quality and beauty of this project. The extra touches Paul put in and the environment he provided for my KOI are unbelievable.

Even yard work is more pleasurable
The pond has added the finishing touch to my garden. Even yard work is more pleasurable because I can hear the waterfall and watch the fish as I work. Paul and his workers stuck to their schedule, working hard throughout the day, and cleaning up before they left. I enjoyed watching the whole project from start to finish; they never objected to me watching over their shoulders and asking myriad questions. The rock bench suggested by Paul has turned out to be one of my favorite features and a wonderful place to contemplate all the wildlife that has been drawn to the pond area. And I was surprised that he took the time to build a footpath around the back of the pond--that has turned out to be a wonderful little part of my garden.
