"I have an invasive weed Garlic Mustard that suddenly appeared in April and also the common buck thorn in my back trees. I was told I had to pay cash and they would not take a check. They would also not come to do any estimate on how many guys and hours I would need to do the job; I had to guess. I ended up having them come two times: first 4 guys for 8 hours; second time 2 guys for 4 hours (per the guess of the first leader for how long and what I'd need the second time). They still did not complete the job. The first crew of guys were better than the second crew of guys. They were college guys, some working hard, some walking and working slowly and on their phones. However, I'm suffering cancer and could not take care of the job, thus had to get someone to control the spread. Thankfully, they did get most of the job done for me. Whether the Garlic Mustard was pulled out by the root, time will tell. The first crew used shovels and got the buck thorn pulled out pretty good; the second crew just cut the buck thorn off. Although I had informed Eric Pfeffer about the invasive weed and explained how it would spread on boots and tools, procedures were followed by some of the guys and not by others. They did not seem to be familiar with working with an invasive weed. Both crews arrived on time, but stopped work 45 min before end time to pick up tools, but also both left the job site (unfinished) a good 20-30 minutes early. Eric communicated via email pretty good after the initial "canned" email response. In their survey, they ask to rate the guys - if you expect this, they need to have their names on their shirts or give you their names. I am unsure, I may or may not hire again."

Watch for warning signs, including decreased water pressure, unusual noises like grinding or rattling, frequent cycling on and off, visible leaks, or complete failure to start. A sudden increase in your water bill might indicate inefficiency or leaks.
If your sprinkler heads sputter or provide inconsistent coverage, your pump may be failing. Consider replacement if your pump is 10 to 15 years old, especially if it's requiring increasingly frequent repairs.
Most sprinkler pumps last approximately 15 years before requiring more frequent repairs. When your pump reaches 10 to 15 years of service, it's wise to begin planning for replacement. Regular maintenance, proper winterization, and addressing minor issues promptly can help maximize your pump's operational life. Environmental factors like water quality and usage patterns also influence longevity.
Higher-quality pumps often provide better reliability and performance, potentially justifying their increased initial cost. Premium models may include improved components and longer warranty coverage.
For larger properties or systems that operate frequently, investing in a better-quality pump can reduce long-term maintenance expenses and provide more consistent performance. Consider your specific irrigation needs and expected usage when evaluating pump options.
Emergency replacements often include premium labor rates of approximately $200 per hour compared to standard rates of $50 to $110 per hour. For a standard two-hour installation, this represents an additional $180 to $300 in labor costs alone.
Emergency situations also limit your selection options to immediately available models, potentially affecting both price and suitability. Whenever possible, plan replacements in advance to avoid these premium charges.
