David of Shape of the Earth is knowledgeable, coming with over 20 years of experience in landscape design and irrigation. I had a small repair job, but he approached it with patience and professionalism, asking questions and vowing photos and videos, plus an on-site visit before doing the work. He answers questions thoroughly. He may not be the lowest bidder, and he uses higher quality parts and fittings, so I’m confident his work will stand the test of time. I’ve added him to my list of “go-to experts” for landscaping and irrigation, and glad I met him.
