Upon installation of a lawn irrigation system, you will receive 2 seasonal service contract, which includes the start up and shut down of your system, a fertile system which fertilizes your lawn(fee), repels bugs and rust, also a hose enclose which hides your garden hose for those small jobs (fee).

"BEWARE of this company, especially Roger. We had an appointment today for turn on and installation of a $600 fertilizer systems. Appointment was for 8 am, technician was sent to wrong address and told us by phone to reschedule the appointment. After calling the office, the time was changed to 1-4 and they arrived at 4:15. Tech was rude, arrogant and a lier. We are having a driveway installed and I was told by Roger that they would return when the driveway was done. Roger is a very scary man and among other things I was asked if I understand english. I was told there were 5-6 line breaks because of the driveway. In actuality there is one line break- no where near the driveway and it was due to me tilling for our garden. While I was talking with Eric I heard Roger in the background screaming at another customer. Then Roger said to give me to him and that "he would take care of me". Eventually I was hung up on - never having received confirmation of my cancellation or refund of my $600. I called back and was hung up on again. I have never been treated in such an awful way and am now sorry we chose this company last fall to install a new system in the home we purchased in Hoffman Estates. I am now looking for a reliable, trustworthy company to move our work to. BEWARE"

We have 3 employees we don't all usually work, we do mostly tree topping but we remove tree and stumps also, we can do jobs as big as clearing out tree lines to just removing a tree dead or to close to the house. We use climbers mostly so we don't destroy yards with bucket trucks and spilling hydrolic oil everywhere.

"Unprofessional due to not showing up when they say they will. On first appointment they said my wires were crossed & they would come back at end of week to try and fix. End of week I called. Dawn their receptionist seem to know nothing about a call back. Dawn scheduled another appt for end of following week at noon. At 3 called to see if I had mixed up days. Was informed that the service man had clocked into my house at noon. Since I'd never left my home all day that was impossible & told her so. She again said that her computer said he checked in at my home at noon. She finally kind of apologized & wanted to make another appointment for the following day. Just did not feel right about trying for another appointment and wondered if the person would even do a decent job of sprinkler repair considering his no shows."

Sprinkler system for lawn and garden winterizes or activates FAQs

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.
