Any Middle Tennesseans out there? We had some terrible storms a couple weeks back, and a microburst picked up a huge hackberry tree and slammed it onto our backyard. We were overall very lucky that it didn't kill our chickens or damage our house or the neighboring business — just our deck, fence, garden bed and waterfall suffered damage. And then, the guy who came to remove the tree STOOD on the waterfall. I nearly lost my mind when I went out there! He also let a big piece of tree fall right in the pond, but that does not seem to have caused any damage, and it is not leaking.
We built the pond ourselves two years ago and are so proud of it, but we just don't have the time or really ability to fix this ourselves. We're having some trouble getting called back from some water feature builders, and the only one who did quoted us $2500. Seems pretty steep, considering the rest of the pond is in very good shape. We do need to get it going again soon. We're using a temporary aerator to get oxygen to the fish. It clogs overnight. If you happen to know of any trustworthy builders, please let me know.
