I felt we were in good hands with Lance and team. They spent the time needed to get everything up and running again - we even signed up for the annual spring/winter service. 1/2017 - $85 to winterize 8/2016 - $472 Repairs including replacement of unit due to lightning strike
Description of Work: We moved to a home with a sprinkler system - all new to us! We hired Rainwagon to winterize and then in spring to restart the system. We had some issues with some areas (irrigation and power lines had been cut by previous homeowner) and actually a lightning strike to our system, so we had Rainwagon handle those repairs.

Very pleased with the service performed. I will call on them to do my yearly sprinkler system winterization. Also pleased that they gave me 10% off with coupon found on Angie's List.
Description of Work: When purchasing my home, I "inherited" an old sprinkler system that didn't work correctly. Bob from RainWagon reinstalled a broken valve in one zone, installed a new rotor to replace a faulty one in another zone. Programmed my controller as per my desired watering schedule. Test all zones for full functionality. Being a newbie to this, Bob gave me some useful tips on the sprinkler system, recommended lawncare/watering, etc.

Lance came and said we need to add 2 zones with a total of 10 sprinkler heads. The price is quite comparable to the other company we consulted. Lance asked for a 500 deposit to hold the work order, which he deposited. The work was done a month later: they were quite booked! His two men team showed up on time, worked hard and did a thorough job. I am very happy with the job!
Description of Work: Our backyard was not covered by sprinkler system and we would like to add them to the extsting system that covered only the front and the side of our property.

They found a significant number of issues, and fixed them all quickly and efficiently. Since then, my water bill has been back in line, and my lawn and shrubs have never looked so good. I will be using them for my winterization this fall.
Description of Work: My water bill had more than doubled and I presumed it was due to the irrigation system. I called Rainwagon Irrigation and had to wait a few weeks for availability, but they came when they said they would.

I don't normally take the time to write reviews, but I think Rainwagon deserves some kudos. I grew up in the irrigation business so I know a thing or two and what questions to ask... The industry and products don't change drastically. They are well established and have been around a long time. They were always right on time, or early from estimate to installation. they use quality parts, and don't take shortcuts. They will do things that you may not expect to make the job more complete. I think their price was fair, so I did not bother getting additional quotes. It takes a lot of time to get people to call back (the few that do) and schedule time at your home to review.... worth something right there.

Excellent, professional work. The two-man crew showed up promptly, explained what they would do, and executed it efficiently. The system is working much better and covering more of the grass as a result of their efforts. Will have them return for seasonal maintenance.
Description of Work: Moved sprinkler heads that were located poorly (behind fence or in a bush). This was our first service request to Rainwagon after years of working with a mediocre irrigation company.

They called before arriving to give me a time range for their arrival, which I appreciated. The service rep Robert was very courteous and professional. And he did good work.
Description of Work: Replaced two sprinkler heads, corrected the back flow valve setting to improve water flow, identified a valve issue that I'll ask them to correct in the fall, and adjusted the watering schedule for greater effectiveness.

These guys are great!! Not expensive compared to the other quotes we got. They came out, installed the irrigation system, showed me how it works, and also helped me lay out seed and straw (which they didnt have to do). Extremely professional, and proficient in what they do. I would definitely recommend them!!

These folks are not only good at what they do but are creative providing me with a number of options. In short they were able to get the one head working without replacing it, re-aimed another so it would do the job better, and replaced the nozzle on the last one so it reached out further as needed. They were here when they said they would be, Lance did the job quickly, and I couldn't be happier.
Description of Work: I had one head that wasn't functioning, another I needed re-aimed, and still another that wasn't reaching out far enough to do the job.

Well, I had four (4) bad heads along with a lead on another. In the span of 90 minutes all the work was done and the system was running properly and what I consider a fair and reasonable price. The savings on the water bill will probably pay for the service performed but these people always do a great job and are worth the wait!!
Description of Work: I had at least one sprinkler head that was malfunctioning and most of the others were watering the street and not the grass. I asked them to come out and replace the bad head, check the others, and aim all of the properly.

Great! This is one of the handful of contractors hired in charlotte who gives outstanding service and does so with reasonable pricing. Robert arrived a little ahead of schedule and was thorough and respectful and an outstanding educator. He , upon, my request... Shared his opinion on some drainage and path projects that we are considering vis a vis irrigation lines which we found to be very helpful.. He also shared his recommendation on how frequently and how long to run the irrigation during the spring, summer, and fall seasons.

Lance was very professional, courteous, and punctual. The work he and his crew did was first rate on every respect. From starting on-time to finishing up a day early we couldn't have asked for a better job. When the job was complete Lance was very patient in explaining every aspect of the installation and how to use the control panel. Can't say enough good things about this local company.

They were terrific to deal with. They were very prompt, they did all the work in a nicely fashion, and they were just very good to work with: one was Robert, the other one was Lance and then Jeff, they're super nice guys. I think they were kinda high priced compared to a lot of available prices but they did put in a lot more zones, that caused more money, but it gives a better watering system that can get to zone by zone and not waste so much water. They were knowledgeable. They come back several times to fix things and they would place no charge. That's how they were and I think I got more than what I payed for.
Description of Work: Rainwagon Irrigation Inc installed the system with the drip line, and the shrubbery irrigation for us. They went over the whole job and had them do touch-ups, we called them six months later for a crack in the dry walls. They fixed it twice and so far now they've got it.
