  Pro-Tech Lawn Sprinklers

  We hired Pro-Tech in September to install an add on to our current irrigation system. The sales representative, and the administrative assistant were helpful, and professional when establishing an agreed upon contract, collecting half of the payment for services, and scheduling the installation date (October 17). On the date of installation, the job took less than an hour, was incomplete, with an explanation that they would return promptly for the remainder of the installation. After a week from the initial installation, Pro-Tech returned to our property (October 25) for the completion of the install, and were still unable to complete the job. After several phone calls and attempts to schedule their return for the installation of our add on system, the Pro-Tech owner arrived (November 8), and again, was unable to complete the job. The Pro-Tech owner was hostile, while explaining that he had more important jobs to complete, and would not have time to complete our installation until the end of November (with the additional expenses). Hostility is an unacceptable way to behave with customers, and for the safety of my family, Pro-Tech was asked not to return to our property. The add on to our sprinkler system is still incomplete, yet we are still receiving a bill with a remaining balance from Pro-Tech, for services not completed.

  Schuberts Landscaping

  I called Scubert Landscaping after seeing a lawn sign in front of a beautifully renewed attractive landscape job done at
   a home near my church. The house stood out because it was a drastic change to lawn as well as to plantings. It looked like a new house.
        I called the number on the sign and was speaking to the owner Joe Schubert within a few minutes.  He was not on Angies List so I was somewhat hesitant at first to contact him. He was close to my home on a job and came over to assess my property and give me the estimate the same day I called. Joe is warm and professional. He took notes and listened carefully to my needs.  I could tell by his questions and comments he was experienced. He took a few minutes in his truck after our meeting and I had the estimate before he left. I had just returned from winter in Florida and was eahger to pick a contractor and start work ASAP. I had estimates the next day and called Joe to offer him the job. 
      That same day the crew: Joe, Chris and Shane finished another job early and were at my house by 3pm:  thatching, raking, pruning and edging.  They worked hard in 85 degree heat till 7:30 pm that evening.  Their tools and equipment were in good repair.       Joe informed me he would be in Connecticut on a job the next day and Chris and Shane would return in the AM. I had surgery and a tendon transplant on my right hand the previous fall so the yard had not been"put to sleep" for winter and needed a lot of care. Chris  was very helpful in decisions regarding removal and worked tirelessly till late afternoon, always courteous and professional.  They bagged 3 large barrels, 34 paper bags and multiple tied bundles of tied sticks and branches.  It was a huge amount of work done in one and a half days.

  BACKCOUNTRY IRRIGATION & HARDSCAPE DESIGNS

  They did an excellent job. I have no problems with them, I wish all my problem went as smoothly as it did with BACKCOUNTRY IRRIGATION and HARDSCAPE DESIGNS. They did in a timely fashion, cost was very reasonable, they were prompt and clean after themselves. I've had them come back subsequently. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

  BACKCOUNTRY IRRIGATION & HARDSCAPE DESIGNS

  Based upon Angie's List of sprinkle installation contractors with an and quot;Aand quot; rating, I contacted Backcountry Irrigation on Friday August 9, 2013 and received a return call on Monday August 12 from Darin that he was available that day to perform a site vist and provide an estimate. We discussed what I believed was an appropriate sprinkler layout and Darin made suggestions for an improved arrangement which I was in agreement. I considered his quoted cost for the installation to be very reasonable (I already had a 2012 estimate from another contractor for a smaller layout that did not provide coverage of the entire lot). I agreed to underake the work with an expected installation date of the first week in September that was subsequently moved up to August 20. Darin and crew of four arrived at the promised time (7:30 AM) and completed the installation the same day (1:30 PM).
  Prior to the placement of sprinkler heads, Darin received my input regarding any changes in the actual location. And when the installation was completed, we agreed on minor adjustments to the sprinkler head coverage. Darin also provided instruction and the tool for making future adjustments to the heads; none needed to date. Darin programmed the clock for the time and day of the week the system would automatically operate as well as provide instruction and demonstrate how to manually activate the system.
  In summary, I was skeptical that any contractor could deserve an and quot;Aand quot; rating and was proven wrong by Backcountry Irrigation. Not only did they perform the work to my complete satisfaction, they were polite and considerate, and very conscientious in cleaning up the yard before departing. I wish all my home projects went as well as this installation!

  Pro-Tech Lawn Sprinklers

  Raymond DeMarco showed up on time on 5/10/13 and I explained my existing sprinkler system that was for the front and side yard, but that I wanted to expand it into the back yard and other side of house.  Also explained I needed to have zones for drip irrigation for my garden.  Raymond was extremely professional and answered ALL my questions.  The pricing for the quote was very good (I thought) given the amount of work to be done.
  I am scheduled to have the system installed on July 3rd and will update the review then.
  
  UPDATE:
  Everyone showed up on time on July 3rd (cloudy, possibly rainy day).  They were all very pleasant and accommodating working around the various landscape cables, etc.
  
  Everything was installed fine and I even got manuals and the tools to adjust any heads if necessary.  They finished around 3:00 p.m. (it got real hot and humid later in the day).  Due to tree roots and sandy soil, one small section of lawn was a little disturbed, but otherwise you can't tell where anything is at now (back yard lawn was in poor shape anyway).
  
  All staff (sales and installation) are very pleasant and friendly and PROMPT.  They show up when they say they will.  Will definitely recommend.

  Rainbow Lawn Sprinklers

  I like that they come reasonably quickly. I had called them the day before and they were here the next day. He said he would be here between 2-4 and he got here at 3:30 which I guess is fine. I don't have any complaints. I used them for 8-9 years.

  Pro-Tech Lawn Sprinklers

  Friends and neighbors had recommended ProTech -- I followed up with a search on Angie's List and then on the Better Business Site and found them highly recommended at both places.  They installed the system that I needed -- crew was professional, courteous and did a great job!  I am very pleased with the company.

  BACKCOUNTRY IRRIGATION & HARDSCAPE DESIGNS

  The install took approximately 3/4 of a day. When the sprinklers are on, they don't miss a spot of lawn and no water hits my house or windows. My perennial garden on the hill in the back of my yard is now water from top to bottom. Darin was a pleasure to do business with. I got other estimates and Darin's was the best. He is very professional and goes over and above to please his customers. I must mention that Darin noticed a piece of my siding was coming off. As busy as he was, he took the time to fix it for me.

  SUMMER GREEN LAWN SPRINKLER

  We've used them for several years to close down our lawn sprinkler system in the fall. They arrive on time and do a good job for a fair price. We've never had any problem with the sprinkler system as a result.
