"A huge thank you to Thad, George and the entire crew at Claybrook Excavating for building the pond of our dreams in front of our home. From start to finish, they were professional, hard-working, and committed to quality, and it truly shows in the finish product.
Thad kept me informed throughout every stage of the project and was always available to answer any questions or address any concerns I had along the way. His communication and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and enjoyable.
We are 100% satisfied with the work they did and couldn’t be happier with the results. I would highly recommend Claybrook Excavating to anyone looking for quality excavation work performed by a team that genuinely cares about its customers."
This pond project took us about 8 days total, working around the wild weather we’ve been having.
The biggest challenge was laying everything out just right — making sure the pond still allowed for usable yard space, captured enough runoff, and provided enough dirt to build the dam properly.
Turned out to be about a 1-acre pond, and we’re proud of how it came together! Another happy customer!
