Rain Wagon Irrigation, Clover, SC 29710 They installed a new backflo valve for my irrigation system in May 2023. In April of 2024 when I tried to start my irrigation system, it would not work. I found that the backflow valve was not working and needed to be repaired. The backflow has a 1 year warranty from the manufacturer. Rain Wagon was contacted 3 times over a 3 week period and not once did they acknowledge I contacted them. I would not work with this company again.

Response from RAINWAGON IRRIGATION INC
I replaced a frozen and broken backflow in May 2023. I was never called to address the backflow after we installed over a year ago. The backflow was probably not winterized again. Freeze damage from not winterizing . Lance Reed

Lance, Robert, and James were all super professional. It was a true pleasure to work with Rainwagon Irrigation to get our front yard set up with a new irrigation system. James and his team were punctual, courteous, and worked hard to complete the project in the timeline they gave us. I cannot say enough great things about this company and the gentlemen we worked with. We highly recommend them!

The system is about a year old and working extremely well. I had an issue yesterday with one of the sprinkler heads and Lance was very responsive to the situation and came the next day to check it out. Lance's responsiveness, quality of work and punctuality are superb. I would recommend anyone that might be in the market to install an irrigation system to call Lance first. You will not be disappointed.

The quality and service is exceptional. They came out after another company did poor work. Rainwagon is priced higher than others. Their service call is $100 whereas most of the others are $85. Of course, the service call charges goes towards the full service, however I can't help but think their full charges are relatively higher than others as well...just couldn't afford to pay for multiple service calls in order to compare.

You know the feeling that you can't always trust a contractor? Not with Lance at Rainwagon. He was just honest. It was refreshing. I have an irrigation system that is a bit different and he was willing to take a look, assess the situation and fix the issue. He wasn't there to sell me on some big job and over bill me for a bunch of work I didn't need or want. It was straight to the point and fair. It's that type of person that I keep and use on a recurring basis.

All repairs quickly make and a job very well done. I was so happy with the amount of work done in very little time. Many would have charged for a lot more time with this much digging but these guys are working at a very good pace getting thing done and done right.

Robert is absolutely fantastic. He was the first person out of 4 companies to figure out what was happening with our irrigation system. He took the time to listen to the entire history of the issue and spent a lot of time checking our entire system and found our issue. Very trustworthy and hard working. He probably could have charged us for things that we didn't need but kept the fix to a minimum. Would (and will) hire him for any irrigation project that we have.

This review is long overdue. I wanted to thank Lance and Rainwagon for designing my perfect irrigation system. Lance was the only contractor that took the time to draw a design that I could actually see what the system would look like from a coverage to coverage perspective. He answered every question that I asked, and trust me, I asked a ton of questions. He response time was unbelievable. And from the day he got on the job to do the actual installation it was precise, professional, and clean. I am very grateful for Lance honestly and work ethic. He's awesome. I will definitely use again. Thanks Rainwagon!

I called and they were polite. However I live in Mt Holly and it seems that I’m too far from Charlotte or Belmont to be profitable for them (their words, not mine). This may be a good company but if they have s limited service area, it should be on their website. I found someone else who was happy to drive across the river and gladly accepted payment.

Excellent, The foreman, Daniel, was the key as he was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. When we were going over the bids to decide on which company to use if we had known in advance we would have Daniel as the foreman and what Daniel was like we would have immediately picked Rainwagon without even comparing their bid to the other bids. .

Extremely well! Lance called us the week before and said he could even come a few days early. On the appointed day Daniel, Russell and Larry came to our house and began work. Daniel, the foreman, was always willing to answer any questions I had and all of the men were very polite. I felt with all of our flowerbeds it was a difficult job, but they said it was not too bad for them. At one point in the 4 day job I saw 5 employees working in various parts of our yard. They were efficient and seemed to work very well together. Since installation we have had a well running sprinkler system and are so happy with our choice of Rainwagon Irrigation, Inc.
Description of Work: We had a sprinkler system added to our backyard this Fall. It was added on to our existing 10 year old front sprinkler system. From the beginning, when we first met Lance at our home in May, and received the estimate we were impressed with his punctuality and follow-up. Lance stated that it would be more difficult and labor intensive because we had many existing flowerbeds and it might have to be hand dug. However, he gave us what we thought to be a fair estimate and we chose the Fall for installation due to other commitments. He said that would be fine. We paid our deposit in June.

Went well. Took his time and explained everything to me in detail. He was patient and helpful. We will use Rainwagon again, I really liked Robert.
Description of Work: We had a leak in our main line. Lance called me initially and was very responsive and set up an appt for me. Robert did the service call. He was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. He had to dig a decent size area and identified the leak in one of our valve boxes. He fixed the PVC pipe leak, and replaced the valve. Also went through all the Zones and made sure the system was working well.

They arrived on time and called prior to arrival. They adjusted the timing of the zones because of the type of emitters, was over watering. The leaks were quickly identified and repaired and they reviewed all the system's settings with me. I used a discount coupon as well with the service.

I have not had them do the work yet. I am still considering them. They have a pretty detailed estimate. Most companies just provide a written estimate (but) this company provided, like, a design diagram and information on the products they use so (they give) a lot more detail. Based on other people I have talked to their pricing seems to be competitive (and) fair.
