"RENE DID GREAT JOB"

"I would give them 0 stars if I could. In September, 2023, I had Collin County Sprinkler put in a drip line around my house to water the foundation. Also I had just planted a new tree in my back yard just 4 days earlier. I asked them to run irrigation to the new tree. I noticed after the crew left that they had removed one of the bubbler heads from a tree about 15 feet away, installed a T fitting from the first tree and attached supply line tubing to the new tree then attached the bubblers. Soon after, I noticed that the tree wasn’t setting watered properly. Another person showed up and told me that the bubblers were not adjusted properly. The adjusted them and it seemed to make it better at the time. Since the trees water before I wake up, I had not noticed the my new tree was not being watered properly, so when my grand sons come over, I had them to remove the bubbler heads from all 3 trees on the zone to see how far the water would shoot up in the air at each of the 3 trees. I was surprised that water was barely bubbling from one opening only. The other openings you could see water in the riser only. I called Collin County and was informed that it would be two weeks before anyone would be at my house. The finally came and was very punctually. After looking at the trees and taking off one head in the two tree rings that were in close proximity. After turning the water on, he said, the only way to fix this is to install a new zone to the tree that was installed last year and informed me that it would cost an additional $650 to have that done. The tech called Steve, the owner of the sprinkler company and was told by him that I was asked at the time if I wanted to put in a new zone and I turned it down. I WAS NEVER GIVEN THAT OPTION! The owner insisted that they did. How would he know for sure, he wasn’t the one that was here. I proceeded to ask the tech to have Steve call me to discuss the problem. Later in the day, a different person called to discuss the matter. All he did was parrot what Steve had told the tech earlier. I told him that apparently Steve didn’t have the balls to call a customer that wasn’t satisfied with the companies work, so he made him do it. So much for them guaranteeing their work. I think I read one reviewer say they guaranteed their work for 3 years. I think that is a little long. I had them install it, complained about the low pressure within the first month, complained about it again when they came out on April 2 to do a spring tune up and then come out on July 16th. On top of that I was charged ”a reduce rate” of $50 for a service call to look at a problem that they created. I would have thought if their techs were proficient in their trade, the would have mentioned that the tree needed a new zone— not only upon install, bit the other two times they were here instead of adjusting the bubbler heads and calling it fixed. If ir wasn’t going to work properly, they had 3 opportunities to tell me before I was finally told. I know this has been a long review and I chose them because of the large amount of 5 star reviews they have. However, if you use them, you do carry the chance of being the next one star reviewer. Save yourself the frustration and find a different sprinkler company for your irrigation needs."

"I set out a point by point Project Plan, agreed that I would supply and pay for all materials, reviewed the project plan with Willard and we agreed on a price. Although he said it may be as much as 2K more, I was prepared to deal with this when we got to the end of the agreed upon price. I paid over half the total amount up front as I trusted Willard having hired him for small jobs before. My family and I were leaving on vacation just after the first 1/2 week of work. Willard told me that he had to go see his sister, but his crew would be working while he was gone. We returned and nothing but the bathroom demo had been done. Willard returned and shortly thereafter started wanting more money. I was not happy with this and found out he had spent all the advance money I had given him and was now unable to pay the sub-contractors required to complete this work. His subcontractor showed up at my home to do the new shower I had scoped. At my home, we had this work, fixing 2 soffets and painting them, removing an old gas heater, capping off and fixing the tiles, refinishing the attic, hanging a new garage (interior steel) door, fixing a broken cabinet in my bathroom and re-sheet rocking a panel of wall in my bedroom that had been ruined by the prior owners. In that week, his tile guy built out my shower and it was lovely. The glass doors were not in when he was done so he said he would do this himself. One of Willards guys did the soffet work and painted and it also was done well. In the attic they used a leaf blower to move the insulation around to be able to lay the boarding. There was an argument over how this should be done which I would not get involved in. They finished the attic. The insulation was not put back in place or under the boarding, so now the hallway under this area is hot as all heck during the summer. My husband is going to have to go back and take out the boards put the insultation under them and then reattach the boarding. Willard hung the steel door, but had not cut out the area in the door frame to install the deadbolt. They went back to my other house as it was critical and way behind schedule. His tile guy wanted me to pay him directly, which I did as Willard had no money to do so and had told him I would pay him. So for all the work I listed to be done at my house. The door still has no deadbolt installed, the wall in my bedroom and the drawer in my bath were not done, the glass enclosure is in my garage in a box, Back to the other house: Willard had me meet him at Home Depot one morning to rent the stripper to refinish the wood floors and we had a heated discussion as he was still talking about not having money, and I told him he would just wind up working other jobs and doing mine when he had time, if he didn't leave me completely in the lurch and I was not happy with that. At that time we were already at the second deadline he had given me and the only things done were the demo'd bathroom, the plumbing for the shower and tub install (which I had to pay the plumber directly to accomplish), the interior painting (again which I had to pay the guy directly to get done), carpentry work on the outside of the house (which was and is still not painted), 3 steel interior doors hung (done and working), All fixtures in the house which I had purchased new (still in boxes), the countertop in the kitchen (still waiting), installing the toilets, vanities, mirrors, etc in the bathrooms (still in demo condition on both counts). AFter yet more weeks and weeks of this ****, I told him ENOUGH, i"m done. I called the locksmith and changed the locks. Funny thing, all those days he said he would go to my house and never worked, or showed up late. He showed up early to make sure he could get his tools out of the house. I will never, ever hire Willard for anything again!"

"Great crew, happy and on site owner. I would definitely hire again."
