Tyler did a great job identifying the problem with my pond and offered an immediate solution. Others have not been able to help me and in fact made the problem worse. Thank you Tyler!

Tyler was the best pond maintenance person we’ve ever had work on our pond. He did an amazing job cleaning and creating a very safe place for the fish to protect themselves from harm. He was very punctual and extremely friendly. I will always call upon him when I need any kind of help with the pond. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs pond service 🙏🙏

Tyler discussed what needed to be done to clean my pond, and keep it clean. He was accurate with the time and price. Very friendly and informative. As a bonus he cleaned and repaired my fountain on his own. I want him back next year.

Never showed up for the appointment. Missed appointment multiple times - terrible experience.

We needed someone to fix the water feature in our yard that only partially worked when we bought our house 4 years ago, that flooded our grass last year, and that has been turned off (and collecting leaves rocks etc.) ever since. Tyler diagnosed the problems quickly and knew exactly what was going on. He did a great job with the work (and very efficiently too). It looks clean and new, and the whole thing works beautifully, restoring the lovely ambiance the fountain was supposed to bring to our yard. We had a hard time finding someone who really knew what they were doing--until we found Tyler. If you're in the same boat, Tyler is the guy to call!

Tyler came out and acted with confidence to replace the bubbler in my pond using the kit I had ordered. He got the pump cleaned and working well. All looks good and he made some positive suggestions for future.

Tyler Palmer did a great job on my pondless waterfall. He cleaned it out and found the leak very quickly. I will definitely use him again.

This was my first time using Thumbtack and was thrilled with the quality of the pro I received. I had a relatively small job of wanting to get an old pond running again. The old wires running out the pond were not working and I wasn’t sure what else was wrong with the pond. Tyler was extremely responsive and honest from the start and explained to me all the nuances/possible issues with the pond. He listened to what I was asking for and implemented the plan in the most cost effective manner understanding cost was important to me. He suggested adding a simple light fixture on the pond which I love. I’d recommend Tyler to anyone looking for assistance with their pond/water feature. Both he and his partner were extremely efficient and very professional in their craft.

Tyler took our frustrating pond situation and made it beautiful. He repaired the connections, replaced a filter and gave it a big scrub! Thank you, Tyler
