About us

Hi. I'm Gabe Berardi. Since 1998, Berardi Irrigation has been installing and servicing irrigation systems for commercial, residential, and golf course applications. Installation is a major part of our business but it’s not everything. Berardi Irrigation has a strong focus on personal service, water consumption, reliability, and superior design. After the appointment for a free estimate has been set, Gabe will personally walk your property, designing a system which will best fit your yard’s needs. Gabe will also describe how he arrived at the personal quote which is delivered on site. He will also be happy to explain exactly what you are getting and address any questions or concerns you may have. Gabe may even suggest the “separate meter option” which is allowed in some towns and can save you money on water in the long run.

They came when they said they would. Gabe, the owner, explained everything they were doing and answered all my questions. I was concerned that they not dig up the yard to install the system, and there was very minimal disruption to the landscaping. I was very pleased with the work, and I am happy to have the system in place.

For our sprinkler system, they were excellent at helping us figure out how to use the system. We purchased a rain indicator for the system, which we were assured would be "very inexpensive" and were surprised when we got the bill for $150 for a silly piece of plastic -- wish I had known that before he installed it! They do a very good job with snowplowing, however they've ripped pieces of our side yard to shreds from the plow (we did initially ask them not to plow that area to avoid lawn damage, but they never listened). Not sure if we will renew for next year.
Description of Work: Berardi Irrigation maintains my sprinkler system (winterizations and turn-ons) and we use them for snow plowing.

I cannot recommend Gabe and Berardi Irrigation enough. I have used many contractors from Angie's list, and these guys are the best. From price, to service to quality of the system, its all top notch. Gabe, thank you so much. We now have actual grass growing in our lawn!!

Gabe was great to work with. He followed up with me promptly to schedule a visit to our property. We walked the area where we needed to install the new system. He checked where we would be tying into our old system and gave us an affordable plan for our irrigation. He provided a written contract that outlined all the materials needed, a price and his warranty on the system.He answered all of our questions promptly. He arrived as scheduled and completed the work as promised. His crew was quick and professional.

We have worked with Gabe and Berardi Irrigation for several years as we determined the appropriate time to install the system. Gabe was always patient and available for questions and feedback (even though we didn't move forward with the project right away). When we were ready to move forward, Gabe was able to clearly articulate the process and timeline for the project. He delivered a timely quote that was definitely in line with our budget. The work was done quickly and efficiently. We are very happy with the system and it has already made a big difference in the appearance of our yard. We look forward to continue working with Berardi Irrigation in the future for maintenance and upkeep and would definitely recommend the company to anyone!

The owner seemed to know what needed to be done, but when he sent the people to do it the job the cost came in 20% more than the estimate. Additionally, not all items were taken care of as discussed with the owner.

Response from Berardi Irrigation
The customer had a large irrigation system which was approximately 15-20 years old and was in need of major repair. The system contained many different types of parts and never seemed to have had a professional touch. Other irrigation companies could have suggested that the irrigation system needed to be totally redone for a price tag of about $4,000-$5,000 dollars. Based upon what the customer wanted to change, we told him that we could rehab his existing system for about a $1,000 dollars to save him some money. He kept having a problem with sticking solenoid valves so we even installed a sediment filter to solve that problem which apparently no other company has ever recommended. We replaced and moved approximately 80-90% of the existing system to Hunter parts and after a day with 2 men on the job, we had it working perfectly. The work was performed in July and the system worked great the rest of the summer. The bill did come in $100-$200 higher than we thought it would but given the scope of work and the age of the system it was hard to give an exact amount at the time of the estimate. The customer included a letter with full payment indicating that he was unhappy with the total price. I immediately called him upon receiving the letter but he was out of the country at the time. I did leave a message but I never received a return call. I figured that my explanation on my message made him feel comfortable but it did not. I did not know he was unhappy until last week when I read this review. I spoke to the customer last week and he was very polite and we are now on good terms. The customer is actually moving but if not we would probably be the company maintaining his system. I guess if we spoke on the phone back in July I could have made up the price difference in price with a free fall winterize or spring turn-on. Either way we are very appreciative for the business and would be happy to help this customer in the future.

We purchased a home that had an older irrigation system that hadn't been maintained. I signed up for Angie's List to find an irrigation company to do the work. From the first call to work completion, Berardi was very professional and accommodating. It turned out to be a lot more work than they anticipated, but the rep stayed two additional hours to make sure the job was complete and I was satisfied. I am extremely please with Berardi and would highly recommend them.

They did a good job. However, I had a billing issue because there was a problem with an area of the lawn that wasn't sprinkled originally. The technician stated that it should have been. They came back out and after that tried charge me for the work. I complained and left a voice mail that I wasn't going to pay for something that was supposed to be done originally. I haven't heard anything, so the issue, in my mind is resolved.

Response from Berardi Irrigation
Member is a great guy and we are happy to have him as a customer. However, what he forgot to write was that this took place two years arfter the initial install. I think this should have been called a system add on rather than "should have been part of the original system". We also came out a year after to change spray heads due to his planting getting too tall in his front beds. Once again, it was fine for the first year. He was not charged for either of these services. If we did these major changes years after original install for all our customers for free, it would be very hard to stay in business.

It went fine. They arrived and took care of their business. However, I would have liked that they would have knocked on the door to inquire if I had any questions or concerns either before or after completion, especially since this was first time ever used them.

Response from Berardi Irrigation
When providing winterization, we often ask customers to please shut the water valve in the basement that we hang a "irrigation tag" on. When this valve is turned off, there is no need to get into the home and we do not have to inconvienience our customers. We believe this is a great method since many of our customers work or plain and simply don't want to wait around for us. Since we did not go into this client's house his water line was obviously turned off. Our technician went about his business from the outside to complete the winterization probably thinking no one was home. In the future if he or any of our customers have a question at the time of the service please do not hesitate to ask our technicians a question. They will be more than happy to help you with anything. Thank you

They are easy to deal with. They come when they say they are going to come, and they let you know if there is a change in their schedule. They are very responsive and easy to work with. I called them to come and open up the system as I am getting some landscaping work done and I wanted the water available. They were available as soon as possible. I think they are reasonable compared to other companies.

Was referred to Berardi Irrigation by lawn service. Appointment was made 10 days in advance. Two hours prior to the appointment time (for which I needed to block my work calendar), a woman called to say they couldn't come by because it was raining and would take too long. She suggested I find another company to help me. She was not empathetic, as if it was my fault they had made the appointment with me in the first place.

Response from Berardi Irrigation
Sorry for the delay in getting to this response. We Just became Angies list members in 2012 and I did not even know this was here. With regard to this client's comment, I am very sorry you were upset. As anyone knows when a lawn is saturated you can really make a mess by digging or driving on it. If you drove a car on a lawn when it was dry it would be okay but if it was wet you would have a huge trench and a pretty muddy situation correct? This is exactly why the service call was rescheduled because we would have done more harm than good. I think she may have been really upset when she said that we told her to hire someone else. This is not how we take care of customers and saying that would be like shooting ourselves in the foot. In the future, a cancelled appointment may happen again due to rain and there is nothing we can do about it. We are not in the business of destroying lawns, we like to make them look good. Mother nature can sometimes get in the way though. Thank you

My initial call was returned promptly. They gave me an estimate over the phone. scheduled me for within a week of the call. Showed up at the agreed upon time. The service person was efficient and professional. Explained what he was doing and answered my questions. He needed access to the sprinkler controls in the house and did the remainder outside. The whole job took about 20 minutes to complete.
