Hired on Thumbtack
They are very knowledgeable, punctual, and professional. I have already hired them twice to work on my irrigationsystem. I had them update it so it functions better and uses less water - they solved many issues we’ve been dealing with for years. I would highly recommend this company.

Daniel replaced 2 of our sprinkler valves and was very prompt.
5 months later when I noticed a leak, they came out right away to get it fixed. They were so fast I didn’t even notice they had addressed the issue already!
Love folks that stand behind their work.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We perform an inspection of the problem/issue you are having with your irrigation system. We then give you a price estimate for what needs to be done to complete the repair.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We come out and meet our new customer. We discuss the issues they are having with their irrigation system and we inspect those issues. We then go ahead and inspect the rest of their system to see if there are any other issues they might have missed.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
We have been trained by Certified Irrigation Instructors to perform all necessary repairs and installation of new irrigation systems.
