[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1644236, member: 39695"] This sounds all to familiar, except in addition to the silt ours was chewed insulation,and rat yuck 😝. If you have to take the fountain off, cut the riser tube off flush with the concrete, lay down,and start digging it out by hand. It sucks! Ours was a square 10"x12" through the concrete. So I was able to use a spade to loosen the dirt and scoop the loose stuff out by hand. Instead of a jackhammer if you rent a concrete saw you could cut the hole around the riser bigger,but still small enough that your fountain covers it. Then you could use a hand post hole digger to clean it out and replace the riser with a larger one. [/QUOTE]
