Hydrologistics Irrigation LLC

It went very well. Josh the owner came soon after I called him to look over the job. The next day he sent his proposal which was less expensive than another company I had contacted. He did the scheduled work at the time he had promised and in the length of time he had promised. He and his helper were polite and friendly and easy to have around our house for three days. We are very impressed with the system Josh designed. He used sprinklers from a couple of companies to get the best coverage for us. His years of experience were evident both in his plan and in the installation. He came back 2 weeks after the installation to check the system and tamp down any high areas in the lawn from pulling the pipes. Josh will also provide winterization for us. My husband is knowledgeable about piping systems and would normally question whomever was doing the winterization to assure himself that they were competent. He doesn't feel the need to do this with Josh, as he has proven his professionalism to us. We would recommend Josh and his company highly to anyone needing an irrigation system.

OVERALL: Josh and his crew are true professionals. From design phase to final walk through you could see the care which they put into their work. A rare mix of work ethic and personality it was a pleasure to have them here. FIRST IMPRESSIONS are KEY: I asked for four bids for the yard. Of the four I received quotes. I made sure to speak to each contractor in person so that I could gauge them and their ideas for how to set up our irrigation system. One was ruled out as they took days to return calls and then showed up unannounced (on their convenience) to walk my property. He walked my property, accessing the privacy fence without ever knocking or announcing his presence. Then got in his car and left without ever speaking to me. In fact that particular contractor never even delivered the estimate! Needless to say he was out. Of the two others (other than Hydrologistics) - One was personable, sincere and knowledgeable. He was in the running to win the deal. The other was enthusiastic but also fast talking in a salesy way. He also turned out to be the most expensive by far. For these two reasons he was ruled out. When Josh showed up I knew within minutes that he would be my contractor. He is very personable. He also showed to be very knowledgeable making recommendations which they others had not. DESIGN: Besides grass my yard has mature flower beds; burms; trees; planted rock beds; and a vegetable garden. At Josh's suggestion we ended up with 11 different zones to cover this. He was very thorough in separating zones based upon both amount of water which would be delivered by the heads and ability to control what was watered when. HERE'S THE KICKER - PRICE: When it comes to something as important and expensive as an irrigation system I am not one to look simply for the lowest bid. In this case I was fortunate in that I felt most comfortable with Hydrologistics AND Hydrologistics came in with the lowest bid. 25% below the highest! PLUS - the other bids were simply for spray heads. The other contractors wanted to spray from the grass over the rock, the burm, the walkways etc... Hydrologistics, while still coming in at lowest price, put in drip and emitter lines. They provided much more thorough and professional irrigation system. When they put in the drip and emitter lines to my rock and flower beds they did so in such a way that I had to physically inspect to tell the lines were there. They moved the aggregate, laid the lines, then put it back. I couldn't even tell it was there! I would not hesitate to recommend Josh Proff and Hydroligistics LLC. They are a single crew so I would recommend getting on their schedule ASAP!
