They built my pond about 5 years ago. I still depend on them for help with things regarding my pond and they always are willing to help and give me advice on what needs to be done. Thank you GSK!

There is no attention to detail in a simple process as an email correspondence. If the first line of communication is this poor, I wonder how the rest of the company would be like?

The gentleman behind the counter was so knowledgeable and patient in answering all my questions. He never tried to sell me anything I didn't need. He advised me how to keep my fish alive over the winter and how to reopen the pond in the spring. I definitely plan to return in the Spring to restock my annual plants.

Gsk dug my main pond 21 years ago. thereafter they installed a smaller pond and a stream. the work was beautifully done, with great personal service and care. in the years past they have provided all maintenance and we have been delighted as with the installation. two weeks ago a pump was out. i contacted the head of customer care as i was worried about the ice freezing over and my fish being at risk. he was away for the week but said he'd see to it. at 8 am the next morning a crew was at my house and replaced the pump. this was not unusual or surprising. it's how they do.
