[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1748228, member: 24816"] Well they finished the pond and culvert, or at least all they intended to do. For $24,000 I was hoping to be a more confident in the job. They did not get all of the mud out, and pushed more dirt from the pond bank out in the pond. Water is pooling before the culvert, and I’m hoping that it holds up, but afraid it will wash back out quickly. It had held up fairly well for over 20 years before completely washing out this spring. When we asked them, what if this washed right back out? The guy says I guess we’ll come back and fix it. Another thing of irritation was the old spillway pipe. They asked what we were going to do with it. I would think that for that much money they would have buried it, they had a huge hole it would have easily went into. or hauled it off, but instead the guy just said it ain’t my pipe, you got other junk around you can put it with. Such arrogance and attitude, I told my wife we were dealing with a millennial redneck snowflake. One day we down there and that guy was showing his youthful silliness, by picking a buttercup stem and trying to give it to his buddy. Not the kind of visual that gives you confidence in people working on a job with construction equipment. The guys actually doing the work, I can respect. I think those guys would do well to end their association with the arrogant kid that subbed the job out to them. [/QUOTE]
