I had Pro Sprinklers come out and do my entire front & back yard last October. Namely, I couldn't be happier with the service & the end product. Both with the sprinklers & the lawn they put in. The price was right around what i was expecting. It may be $100 or $200 hundred dollars more than some competitors, but you are buying assurance with that. Just when they survey the land you know you are in good hands.
They'll walk you through the options, and let you know what you're getting into without hidden costs. And they don't force anything on you. As a guy that is renovating my house from the ground up, its nice to come across a vendor where you actually have a pleasant experience and don't feel bullied.
I'm not sure how people could leave a negative review. Water bills go up when you install sprinkling systems. I don't think many people are surprised by that. Nor would they blame the sprinklers. John is about as nice as they come. And he uses directional heads to maximize the control of the water. If you want bad service, use the guy that fixed my AC.
I feel the need negate the bad review for two reasons.
1) John comes out to reset the sprinkler clock a couple weeks after planting grass to maximize the growth & save the water. This is a free service visit he just does on his own accord. Who does that these days? Its really a set & forget service you are buying.
2) We had laid out where my plants were going to go so the sprinklers could be aligned. Days after installation, I put a un-planned bush in & figured I would just water it with the hose every once in a while. I casually mentioned that to them & I came home the next day to find they added a whole new pipe & head for that bush. No charge. It was like a surprise. After I had paid them!
So, you tell me what places now a days are going to offer the above two?
Also, things cost money. Its a house, not a 1987 honda. If you never want to spend a dime, trust me, never buy a house. But if you're a grown up & understand you might have to pay for things, hopefully you are wise enough to protect the investment & get it done right. And in this case, easy. You'll thank yourself when you don't have to do it again in 5 years.
To this point, I tell everyone about them. And even recommended them to my boss of all people.
By the way, my lawn looks amazing. Even through a drought. read more
