Terrific. They are prompt, reliable, thorough, and reasonably priced. We have now gone through three annual cycles of startup, shutdown and maintenance and are very happy with the service. They have also done well when asked to coordinate with other service providers such as landscaper and plumber.

We walked the entire system, zone-by-zone and head-by-head. They adjusted every head and replaced several broken heads. They made suggestions for watering times and programmed the controller accordingly for me, no charge. These guys stand by their work. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: I emailed the office on Monday 7/3 regarding some issues that I noticed after I turned on the system for the first time after the first repair. I received an immediate email response. Since the next day was 4th of July, they came out on Wednesday 7/5.

I turned on the system for the first time today. It seems like NONE of the heads were adjusted (front or back) and a bunch of water is being wasted watering the driveway and the street and over the back fence. It seems to me that several of the heads they told me were leaking are STILL LEAKING. I don't think they TESTED each head after the install. I hope these guys come back to fix the job.
Description of Work: I paid for a "tune-up" $79 since it had been a long time since the heads were adjusted. I was told & shown that I had 12 bad (leaking) heads and the cost would be $28 each head plus $18 each to install. These are the same heads they sell in Home Depot for around $10 each. The work needed to be done, I did not have the time to do it myself, so I had them do the job. The bill came to over $500 (not including the tune up which I had pre-paid). They did give me an ANGIES LIST discount.

Good Morning [Member Name Removed], I responded immediately to your email yesterday evening saying that I will send the technician to go back through your system with you, right away. We guarantee our work, and customer satisfaction. If something is not done to your satisfaction, we will happily do our best to rectify the situation. In regards to the head pricing, we explained before we did any work, that our heads are. It the same price as the ones at Home Depot, because we offer a two year warranty on our heads. If they stop working in that window, we will come out and repair it free of charge. - Home Depot does not offer that. Please respond back to our email so that we can send the technician out to run through the system with you, and ensure everything is working to your satisfaction. Happy Fourth of July!

Great - Fabio and crew very professional. Fabio worked with me on design and layout of sprinkler heads and stayed within my budget and installed my preferred controller. Gabriella coordinated programming of smart controller. System is working well. Used the plumber they gave as reference for installation of required 1 in. pipe and back flow device - also excellent. Will continue to use services of Boston Irrigation for system seasonal maintenance.

I set up an appointment for someone to come out and fix the leak. The appointment was for the time window 2:30-4:30. I told them that I needed to leave by 4:30 at the latest to pick my kids up from school. Today I got a phone call at 2pm saying that Rafael was already here waiting. I rushed home and he had already fixed the leak and found a different one that may have happened during the winter because it was so close to the surface. He patched that one and told me that while he was waiting for me he cleaned all my sprinkler heads free of charge since he was already here. I've used other companies to winterize in the past because they had cheaper deals online. I think I'm going to go with Boston Irrigation from now on, these guys are professional, prompt, always helpful and show up with a smile.
Description of Work: I had Boston Irrigation winterize my sprinkler system before the winter season of 2016 and they found a leak that was probably caused by a landscaping company during aeration. Boston Irrigation flagged the problem and said they could come out and fix the problem in the spring.

It was awesome. Fabio and his team came in and installed a 4-zone system. They were in and out within a day and I was up and running. Because I had purchased my own controller (rachio - highly recommend as well), they had even given me a rebate on that. Very honest, I don't know if others would just simply provide the rebate without asking. Awesome experience and I'm really glad that we used their services. They also came out to our home to do winterization for a reduced fee. I highly, highly recommend them.

Hi [Member Name Removed]! We do not currently have a Winterization deal running! Our only deal we have is for a spring time up, and nothing that applies to a Winterization. I apologize if there was a misunderstanding- we had sent an email to the email address provided from Angie's List explaining this after we got notification of your purchase.

Boston Irrigation has been great to work with. Since moving to Framingham and never having an in-ground irrigation system before, they've always been reliable and patient as they took the time to explain how the system works, what I can do to maintain it, how often to run and when. The techs are always very friendly and reliable. My last appointment was to turn on the system for the summer months. The tech who came out noticed that about six or so sprinkler heads were in need of replacement. In order to keep the costs down for me (as I was getting additional services performed), he analyzed the heads, suggested that I change the worst 4 of them, then take care of the others the following year. When pricing out the job, he was able to show me how they build the overall cost in terms of parts and service -- that level of clarity was very appreciated as I didn't have to wait for the office to hit me with a bill that I would have no idea to pay for. Another benefit is that I receive emails/text messages from Boston Irrigation at different times of the year to give me a head up about scheduling sprinkler turn-ons/shut-offs which is great because I never know when I should do it. Gabriella, who always schedules appointments, is great to work with trying to accommodate my schedule. All in all, Boston Irrigation is a great company to work with. I'm reaching the one-year mark of being in my new home and I always keep them in my contact list as a reliable service provider!
