I highly recommend Andre! He came to my Mom's house today on time and completed everything for even less than his original estimate. We got an excellent job done today for a very, very fair price.

A very nice guy, as well. read more

Here's a simple metric for rating a company ( or a product, service, and the like). Q: Would you use this company again ? A: Yes Q: Why? A. Completed the job within the parameters that were mutually agreed upon. Brooks was flexible and able to pivot as needed to insure the job was done correctly ( Correctly = my std. of expectation). On time, reasonably priced, knowledgeable, able to pivot as the job required ; Demonstrable experience reflected in his work. AND Bob ( our Dachshund) liked 'em, so he also passed the 'sniff test'. Maybe 'cause he gave 'em treats ? Who knows. read more

Andre was very responsive. He came out and fixed my broken valve the next day. Reliable, quick, friendly service. Highly recommend!

Highly recommended. Andre diagnosed the irrigation issue and fixed it without problems. Nice guy as well.

I had a sprinkler, Zone 7 that was not turning on via the Controller. I thought it was the valve solenoid so I replaced the entire valve as well as the 3 other valves next to it because they were all old and I decided to bite the bullet. Hunders of dollars later Zone 7 would still not turn on!! I called Andre at A Brooks Irrigation. I met him at the front door and literally within 3 minutes he knew what the issue was and fixed it. Do yourseld a favor and call a real pro!!! read more

Great business! Andre, the owner, is knowledgeable, friendly, and quick to answer any questions. He replaced a 3/4" hunter anti-syphon valve, replaced a 3/4" ball valve and rebuilt the manifold on our irrigation system.

Our sprinklers went out all of a sudden and we needed them fixed rather quickly. Andre answered my inquiry super quickly and was able to fit us in last minute.

He was quick to respond and excellent with his service. Very knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

My irrigation problem was fixed right on the spot! I will reach out to A Brooks on future problems with my Irrigation.

As a result of his 4.9 YELP rating, we called Andre to come out and assess our whole yard irrigation system that had been off for 2 years due to construction. He arrived on time, looked over everything and started to do triage of the items that could be out of whack. 90 minutes later he had rewired around a bad interior box circuit, replace a solenoid, tightened housings, replaced rusting wire nuts, etc. Set the control box to our specs, even providing advice. HIRE HIM !! He is the real deal. Great guy and great value. read more

He has a ton of knowledge and can guide you in the right direction or he can do it for you. He's quick, thorough, very professional, and there's no one else I'd rather call.

Andre was methodical in his uncovering the problem I was having with my sprinkler system. A leak was detected - caused by gophers gnawing on the PVC and Andre promptly fixed it. He was prompt and professional, he is now my sole contact for irrigation issues. read more

Andre's response time to my sprinkler issue was prompt. Andre was easy to communicate with, provided me a heads up prior to arrival, and went step by step with the issue I was having with my existing sprinkler system. He didn't have to but he was thorough, took his time to explain everything to me, and was able to fix my problem in little time. He went over other things of my existing set up and provided me with additional helpful information to maintain the system to continuously work properly. Happy to support this business as it is locally owned and Andre simply treats you with respect. I'll be reaching out to A Brooks again for future projects. Thank you, Andre! read more

Andre', O'wner/Operator of A. Brooks Irrigation & Lighting, is very reliable and affordable. I had a compression fitting on our sprinkler system blow apart due to the high water pressure we have in our community. Andre' shows up on time and totally redesigned our system so that it was safer and more efficient. He dug down to remove and replace faulty PVC fittings and replaced a faulty gate valve with a full flow ball valve and new hose bib. Our irrigation system is much more efficient and safer now, thanks to Andre's expertise. read more

I'm a DIY person who's new to sprinkler systems and after a few rounds of troubleshooting a leaking sprinkler head on my own to no avail, I decided to seek out support to get it done. Andre's response time is very fast. He provided some advice over the phone to try and also offered to swing by to get it done if I was unsuccessful. His guidance was spot on to help me understand what was causing the leak and suggest a part that would fix the issue. I'll reach out to him for any complicated fixes I can't handle in the future without hesitation. In the end, after learning about his rates, how much time I spent troubleshooting and various parts I purchased, I think it would have been well worth the cost if I knew him from the start and just asked him to fix it for me in much less time. He's great. read more

Excellent service and super responsive. I would highly recommend Andre for an irrigation projects.

Quick and easy! I will definitely use Andre again if I have another sprinkler situation.

Andre is a good natured expert at his craft. We had a leak in our front yard that was coming up 15 feet away from where the problem was. If left my own devices I would've had to dig a 15 foot trench to find it. But Andre found it in 10 minutes and fixed it no problem. Very grateful for his help. Would absolutely recommend! read more

Andre came to my house and gave me a rather large quote for the job. I told him I would consider it but wanted something in writing first. He promised he would. One week passed so I texted him about the written estimate. He texted back and said he was sorry he forgot about it. Then he said he was no longer interested in pursuing my business. Never experienced anything like this before. Oh well. read more

My sprinkler control box stopped communicating with the sprinkler stations, even though it appeared to be programmed and set fine. Wouldn't even run manually. At this point I knew fixing this was above my knowledge. Reached out to Andre of A Brooks Irrigation and Lighting after I received several messages back from other providers. I am so glad I went with Andre. He showed up at the promised time (actually a bit earlier, which I was happy about). In this COVID era, he came to my door with a mask and gloves on, which told me he respected the situation we're living in. He quickly diagnosed the issue within minutes and fixed the wiring issues I had. He additionally helped fix an issue I was having with a sprinkler head quickly. Throughout the process he explained to me what he was going to do so that I could understand. He did not try to sell me on anything that I didn't need, which I appreciated even more, resulting in a very cost-effective and quick service. Thanks Andre. read more

A VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER We called Andre of Brooks Irrigation to refurbish and repair our 45 year old sprinkler system and BOY did he do a great job. Andre does the work himself and that means you are getting his expertise. He really knows the irrigation business and it is amazing to watch how hard he works and how quickly he diagnoses each problem to fix your irrigation system to work properly. To add to that, he's a very nice person. It was so refreshing to hire a man, who keeps you informed of when he is coming to do the work. Then he shows up on time and keeps you informed as he quickly, systematically, and efficiently does the work. He is a very hard working man and once you see him work then you know you hired the right man. None of this slow motion work just to get more billable hours. He's just the opposite, a man who never works at less than full speed and he seems to know how to diagnose all the problems quickly. I couldn't believe how fast he did our work because we have an acre of landscape with 3 separate irrigation timers and about 20 separate irrigation lines. There must be well over 100 sprinkler heads on my property. He had only worked for us for half an hour, when I went into the house and told my wife, "This time we definitely hired the right man." In addition to the landscaping, we also have three atriums inside our house and Andre recommended and put in a new drip irrigation system in each atrium. It is now two weeks since Andre installed the new system and the new indoor plants are thriving probably because the coverage is so much better. Andre said the new system would be a major improvement over the old drip system and that has certainly proven to be true. After installing the new drip system, Andre ran and timed the system to determine how long we needed to water for optimal growing conditions. You also save time and money because Andre has most of the replacement parts on his truck and, after 45 years, we really needed a lot of new parts. Now we have a new modern system with better water coverage. I'm 84 years old and handicapped and the best part was I didn't have to do the work myself. I had expected to be charged considerably more than the very reasonable invoice we received from Brooks Irrigation. It is a nice feeling to pay less than you expected for work of the highest quality. I told Andre that from now on I'm going to be one of his steady customers when we need service. read more

Excellent service! Had an issue about a year after installation and Andre came out and fixed everything very quickly and did not charge anything. I can't remember the last time I got service like that. read more

I had been having problems with my drip irrigation and attempted repair with a couple of landscaping companies without success. I contacted A Brooks Irrigation and lighting for a quote and Andre responded almost immediately. He was able to stop by that same afternoon, gave an expert assessment, and a more than fair quote. I scheduled him to come back a few days later. The night before, I received a reminder which included a one hour window for his arrival time. The job was completed and it ended up being less than the original quote. Andre was personal, professional and demonstrated expert knowledge. In addition, he was happy to provide some referrals for our landscaping projects. I plan to work with him again in the future. This was by far the best experience I have had with hiring someone for any type of home repair. read more

Fixed my main sprinkler line which was dislodged due to massive roots. Also replaced 8 anti-siphon valves. Great job. Cleaned up afterwards. Would use again. Busy guy. read more

Stop here and don't look elsewhere - you've found your guy. A+ all around. Andre is honest, efficient, responsive, reasonably priced and a great communicator. Willing to work on pieces rather than a major project, but I'm sure would crush a huge project as well. Knows his stuff. We moved into an older house and he's helping me figure out what's currently in place and talk through the updates of what needs to happen. I'll be calling him again for sure. read more

Used Andre again for a repair and cannot say enough about him. Responded promptly, came by quickly, did two quality repairs, and charged me an extremely fair price. If you have any irrigation needs, cannot recommend this company enough. read more
