Let me tell you our experience about this company and the work they did for us a week ago. First of all my husband and I are newly retired and we are both native Austinites. As natives to Austin, we knew all the sprinkler system companies that have been in town for years now. In gathering our quotes to have a full system put in our 1/3 acre property I came across Neptune Sprinklers. Chris the owner came over to give us a bid. In talking with Chris I found out he also grew up in the Austin area. We got several bids from other companies and it was Chris that stood out to us and we asked him to do the work. We also liked it was a local home grown business and if or when we need follow up answers to questions or repairs we know Chris will remain in the Austin area.
Our 1/3 acre job was completed in two days and it was amazing to watch from time to time. It was like an open heart surgery with fine cuts into your yard and they lay the PVC pipes and heads then they filled in the trenched areas with a pallet of fresh St. Augustine grass. His staff went as far as to hand water the fresh patches of grass they put down. His staff of 4 worked from 8: 00am to 3:00pm each day in near 100 degree temperatures making a very complicated job look easy. They arrived on time every day, worked in heat that most of us could not even begin to imagine. Details ! I'm a woman of details and boy did they live up to it. They blew all the dirt from the driveway and curbs, they hauled away clippings from a shrub that needed to be cut back, watered new grass, they took every piece of trash from water bottles, rocks and roots.
Folks ! My husband has said he could put in a new water sprinkler system himself. People I don't recommended it after seeing every little detail put into it with my own eyes. From correctly planning the layout, measuring, researching and buying the products, renting heavy machinery to dig into hard dirt and lime stone rocks, ordering grass to cover the trenches and having it delivered. The entire process would kill anyone so for Chris and his staff I say thanks to all of them for being in the heat for the two days that it took them to do the job. If you try this yourself, be sure to know it would take forever to complete this project from the beginning to the end.
In closing, we woke up today being Sunday and it would have been our hose sprinkler watering day that would have taken hours to water by dragging hoses, adjusting sprinklers, the frustration and wind blowing water on the streets. Instead we woke up after the sprinklers ran over night for the first time to a beautiful green yard and now we don't know what to do with all our extra time - ha, wink , happy!
We say, what took us so long to get a system installed !
Warranty work. Our system is so new that no warranty work has been needed
thus far but I know Chris the owner will be around when and if we need him.
He can give you a free quote and tell him we sent you.
