Dave Dower - *********** pond builder

I wanted to build a special memorial water garden for my late husband. I supp**** my own rocks and my own pump. Barely a week Dave Dower built the pond, the sides started caving, and two months later the pipes started leaking. I have asked Dave several times to fix the problems, but he refuses to answer my messages. The pond is now totally non-functional, it is just a black, stagnant, stinking puddle. I basically paid R25K for a piece of plastic liner that is causing a lot of heartache and sadness.

Reviewer Update
Six months later and despite numerous please to come and fix the mess: I am very unhappy with the pond Dave and Robyn built end March 2021. The waterfall never worked properly because of wonky pipe work, and the sides caved in 5 days after the pond was built. Dave admitted that the sides were substandard and promised on several occasions to come and fix the pond. One day he said he would be here the next day, but I already had another engagement and asked that we reschedule. Never happened. He also deleted his posts on FB pages where he said he would come and work on the waterfall. I have been trying since 5 April to get them to fix this, but I have now been blocked on FB and they ignore my messages. I don't recommend using them.
