I have been in the industry for the last 9 years, and love everything I do. My own business just started 2 weeks ago as Rogans Contracting. We do a handful of projects from remodeling bathrooms, plumbing work, electrical work, landscaping, flooring, decks and patios, and many more. As a team we would love to get out and into the community a little more, hopefully you'll be the next one we get to meet.

"The estimate and interaction prior to the work was courteous, professional and accurate. However, we never received an email or call about when the work was to occur. When the crew did come to remove the trees it was a fill-in job for them and no one was home as the job began. The work they did on the two trees and clean up afterward was excellent. In the process of removing one of the trees they removed several limbs from an adjacent dogwood tree. Because no one was there to talk with them we couldn't have indicated that this was not what we wanted. Their follow up was good, but I can't rate them an "A" given the lack of warning on when the work was to occur and the removal of other tree limbs."

"It's good. I've probably been using them for 10 years. I have complained once or twice about their responsiveness, and they came right out and fixed the problem. They seem to be there, I prepay so they still come out. I've had some good guys, and some that were a little not so good to talk to."

"This is a large professional tree service, that uses technology like Arbor jet for treating trees. There were some delays with service, but when they were here they were professional, careful, and did a good job. The mites and borers were stopped. They were careful to cover our vegetable gardens for the mite spraying, and provided helpful advice. This year they promptly sent me their yearly maintenance proposal which we immediately accepted. But then they failed to set a date for service for a deep root feeding of the damaged tree which really needs it and although budded successfully on all limbs, is now failing to leaf. We called and service is now scheduled. They are responsive when prompted."

"I built a house 4 years ago.  The builder planted grass but the next year my lawn was bare.  I tried to bring it back to life on my own with out success.  This year I contacted Bill at Green Lawns to help with getting my lawn back in shape.  He came out assessed the lawn and presented me with a very clear plan with pricing.  He was great to work with and has returned my calls on time even after I had pr-paid for the service.  A few of my neighbors have used his services and their lawns look great. He will be re-seeding my lawn this fall.  I will give you an update come fall. <br />"

"I've had a contract with Lawns Unlimited for many years, and my mother was their customer before that. I was always pleased with the polite and kind manner of the woman I spoke with on the phone--I believe her name was Brenna. Last year, however, their technician killed my entire lawn and damaged a spruce tree when applying lime and another treatment. I had to call repeatedly to find out what they had done and what I should do to remedy the situation as quickly as possible, because I was showing my house to prospective buyers, and my yard looked TERRIBLE. What irked me the most was that Ed would only make comments to me through the office staff, and when he finally deigned to get on the phone, he said that nothing they had done would have burnt my lawn. I beg to differ; I've read online that excessive lime applications done in the hot months can burn a lawn. I'm not comfortable working with a company that lies to me, so I've terminated my account. Sad, after all these years. I'm giving more than one star because I feel I should acknowledge the past GOOD years of service."

FAQs for lawn and garden sprinkler system installation projects in Dover, DE

While drip irrigation systems have higher upfront costs, they can save you money in the long run. By delivering water directly into the soil with minimal evaporation and runoff, drip irrigation systems conserve water and improve efficiency. This means better performance and results for your landscaping, and cost savings over the system's lifespan.

Yes, irrigation systems can add value to your home, especially when installed with high-quality materials and a solid design. A well-irrigated landscape enhances curb appeal and can attract potential buyers. However, poor design or installation may reduce performance and even decrease your property's value. Hiring an expert for installation and performing regular maintenance is key to securing the long-term benefits.

A local irrigation professional can help you check your drip irrigation system to make sure it's in good shape. You'll want to make sure the water pressure is in a good range, repair any leaks as soon as possible, and cover the cost to winterize your sprinkler system as recommended by your irrigation contractor.

A drip irrigation system lasts between 10 and 15 years. This lifespan is determined by the quality of materials, the precision of installation, and regular professional maintenance. Unlike traditional sprinkler systems that can last up to 50 years, the thinner piping used in drip systems is more sensitive to UV exposure and environmental wear. Proper upkeep and timely repairs enhance durability and ensure consistent irrigation performance.

Drip irrigation is best suited for plant beds, containers, greenhouses, and row crops. It supplies water directly to individual plants, ensuring precise moisture control where it is needed most. For areas with simple layouts, above-ground systems work efficiently, while subsurface installations may be cost-prohibitive in spaces with extensive tree roots or irregular terrain. Proper planning maximizes the benefits of drip irrigation across a variety of applications.
