Stuck with old faithful Yelp and looked up backflow services. Up pops up this company. Yelp hasn't let me down yet so... yeah.. let's try it out. I called and left a message. About a day later I received a call back and it was this company. He was able to schedule an appointment in 2 days at a very reasonable price. What's great about his service is that it's fully turn-key. I handed him the letter from Chesapeake and from there he does everything. He fills it out, submits it to the city and I'm all good to go. After it was all done, he sent me a scan of what he filled out for my records. Technically, I didn't have to even be home for the whole thing. Bravo Beasley! Now that's what I call service!!

Beginning with our first interaction, He has been polite, and timely...he shows up when he says he will and his rates are competitive and reasonable compared to many other quotes I've been given. Clear communication and customer service are very important to me when working with another company and the fact that I can call and talk directly with a person is a plus. He is able to answer any questions I have had as well.

Carney installed my 15 zone irrigation system in Nov 2025. Very thorough workmanship and full…read morecoverage allowing for future lawn expansion. 2nd visit was system winterization. No issues. 3rd visit was to have a few heads shifted away from the right side of the drive to allow for planned driveway expansion. 2-man crew did a great job relocating and removing heads per our request. They made note of the need to ensure these heads were readjusted for Spring turn-on since they couldn't be checked/ adjusted at the time of the service. 4th visit was Spring turn-on. Tech repaired a broken feed and turned the system on but did not give attention to adjust the spray pattern for the changes made during the 3rd visit. Shame on me for not verifying his work before he left. 5th visit was a call from me to address heads that were literally watering my driveway and to inquire about a tool to allow me to adjust the spray pattern. Was told there was no tool available and that there'd be a service call to come out and make the adjustment. Raining that day but specifically asked the tech to verify the spray pattern for the heads near the driveway. $140 and a week later was out marking head locations and noticed multiple heads on that same side of the drive were watering the driveway and not the intended lawn. 6th visit and $61 more, responding tech 1st informed that an adjustment tool was supposed to be left with the install (gave me a spare one), next showed me how to adjust the spray pattern on the heads and finished by checking/ adjusting all heads spray patterns consistent with the landscape. in this case, 3rd time (6th visit) was the charm and charming. Good company but recommend ensuring everything is exactly as it should be before signing paperwork to indicate the job is complete. Would've been professional to waive those two adjustment trips b/c had the Spring turn-on been completed accurately and/ or an adjustment tool provided, there would've been no need for visits 5 and 6.

Disappointed after 20+ years with Carney Irrigation -- poor customer service and unfair billing…read more I've been a loyal customer of Carney Irrigation for more than two decades, but my recent experience was unacceptable. The technician who came last spring to turn on my irrigation system discovered several broken valves and had to shut the system off on the same visit-- so there was effectively no "turn‑on" service performed. Seven months later, I received an unexpected invoice for that visit. When I contacted their office, I was told the charge would stand, though they would waive a $25 late fee. I never received the original bill, and given that the "turn‑on" didn't actually happen, I don't believe this charge was fair. After 20 years of loyalty, being treated this way says a lot about how this company values its customers. I can no longer recommend Carney Irrigation and suggest looking elsewhere for an irrigation company that demonstrates fairness, accountability, and respect for long‑term clients.

Last year he tested it and it worked all season fine.

When I turned them on water began blowing out a relief valve that was left open when the system was purged last fall. I will never have anyone else touch my system again.

By 2:30 PM, we still hadn't heard anything, so I called the office and was told the plumber would be here. 4:00 PM came and went with no arrival, so I called again. I was told the plumber must be tied up and that she would check the status. At that point, I told her not to bother. We completely understand that unexpected issues can delay a plumber -- that's not the problem. The issue is the lack of basic courtesy. A simple phone call to reschedule would have been appreciated. Instead, I sat at home for four hours waiting on a no‑show. It was frustrating, inconvenient, and highly unprofessional. Based on this experience, I would not recommend calling them.
