"If I could give 0 stars, I would. I hope this is a warning for anyone considering using Allen, they are absolutely HORRENDOUS to work with. Never in my life have I spoken with such a disgusting manager. To give back story, we hired Allen to inspect our backflow last July. A member of the team came out, inspected, and gave us a green/blue tag saying we were “all good to go”. He mentioned that we didn’t need any paperwork, and that they would submit it directly to the water district. A year later, our water district called letting us know they were shutting off our water because they never got a passing test from Allen. The manager and receptionist BOTH said it was mine and my husband’s fault because we mentioned in passing that we would eventually take out our sprinkler, so the information never got sent to the water district. DISGUSTING! This was also after admitting that the inspector didn’t work there anymore “for good reason”. After arguing with the Manager who still insisted it was mine and my husband’s fault, they sent out a new tech who straight up told the manager while I was standing there “the inspector did pass them in their inspection and gave them a tag. The information is all here. The office must not have filed the paperwork correctly”. They still continued to send us a bill for the re-inspection. Save yourself the hassle and hire someone that actually cares."

"I'm shocked by all of these 5 star reviews, but then again, I shouldn't be considering they ask for a 5 star review BEFORE they do any work during the estimate phase. They dug up our rose bushes and just left them there to die. They left their clothes in our basement and didn't even bother to clean up after themselves. They also left one of their tripods on our backyard. Not to mention, my husband found 2 cracks from their work order that they didn't even attempt to seal. Oh, and the plates they put on the wall are all crooked. Fast forward 2 weeks and one of the plates is leaking. This is abysmal and I recommend you STAY CLEAR. All photos are of "finished" work."

Winterize your sprinkler system before the first deep freeze in your area, typically from late September to early October. This ensures no water remains in the pipes to freeze and cause damage, preventing costly repairs and preserving your system's integrity.
You should open your sprinkler system in spring only after the last hard freeze has ended. Begin by testing the system once temperatures remain robustly above 32°F and the risk of frost has completely dissipated. This method protects your system from pressure shocks and minimizes repair risks, ensuring optimal performance for the new season.
The cost to run an irrigation system depends on factors such as water usage, local water rates, and the efficiency of your system. On average, homeowners may spend between $10 and $50 per month on irrigation water. To minimize costs, consider installing a water-efficient system and scheduling watering during cooler times of the day to reduce evaporation. Regular maintenance also helps ensure your system operates efficiently.
If you live in a warm climate where freezing temperatures are rare, you do not need to winterize your sprinkler system. In regions where temperatures consistently remain above freezing, water will not remain in the pipes long enough to cause freeze damage. However, it's still important to perform regular maintenance to keep your system running efficiently. Reviewing local weather forecasts and consulting a professional ensures that your system operates effectively without unnecessary maintenance.
