Response from Royal Irrigation
Upon arrival at this person's house he greeted our tech with the demand that we should make all repairs to his 12 zone system for free. When the technician explained the clearly stated deal which included a thorough inspection of 6 zones and there would be an additional fee for inspecting the extra zones not included in the promotion in addition to a fee for repairs, the customer declined the service. Our tech arrived for a scheduled appointment and was courteous. Because we would not provide unlimited free service, the customer chose to give us a negative review.

The booking was easy and the tech was on time. He did what I was expecting, to open the system up. However, while a number of the heads were not turning and would need to replaced, he provided me and my wife with an estimate for $700 to replace 7 total heads!! He said, because we have well water, they'd recommend using heads that include steel, so they are $65 each, plus he added $15 to "lower" the heads based on newer standards with sprinklers. This was way more than I wanted to spend and also $400+ more than an estimate I then received from another company to do the same work using sprinklers of the same quality but not replacing all 7, instead replacing just 4. The cost per sprinkler head was more in the $35-$40 range. I'm sure Royal irrigation knows what they are doing as far as sprinklers, and I'm trying to give them the benefit of the doubt, but the second estimate has me thinking that they are overpriced. They also didn't seem to want to work with us to find something that worked in our budget, unlike other vendors.
Description of Work: I purchased the Angie's deal to have my sprinklers opened for season.

I read your comment regarding our service. To clarify our pricing, our technician included stainless steel heads with a five year warranty because he thought you would have more long term success with this equipment. I reviewed the paperwork, which did not indicate this but Jerry explained he told you this during the appointment. He could have offered you a $45 rotor, had you mentioned that this was not what you were looking for. We strive to provide value and outstanding service.

It was not great because when they came over, they said they couldn't perform the service since I didn't have a working irrigation system and sprinkler system. They looked at it when they came out and provided an assessment in a day but the guy was basically out here for 15 minutes and told me he couldn't do the job since it didn't work. The service was recent when I got it and then within a month he was here but I was surprised that they didn't offer any alternatives or anything like that, but it was only $50 so my work and time didn't really pursue it. We barely had a transaction since he came out, he took a look at the system and since it didn't function, he said he can't and we parted ways. I think they just thought that they got $50 from me and that's enough. They didn't offer my money back or really providing any alternatives because the only solution was $1000 to get working, that wasn't feasible for me and so we just parted ways.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. We came out to your property to do the summer check up, but the system did not work. We did an evaluation and assessment of your system and provided you an estimate to repair it. The cost for the service call and providing that assessment, was actually more than the cost of the deal you had purchased. If you would like to have your system repaired this year, we would be happy to do that for you.

Technician was here at the agreed upon time. As we were new to this home (and sprinkler systems), he showed us how to operate the system, then walked with us to show us all the sprinkler heads and zones. Once he turned on the system, he checked them operationally then flagged the ones that were not operating properly. As this was an Angie's list special, this was all he was required to do. He gave us a quote to replace a couple of heads that were not working. He was efficient and knowledgeable and we will use their services again.

The business honored the Rapid Connect guarantee, were prompt in setting up the appointment and keeping it. But that's about where my positive experience ended with this business. Like others, I took advantage of Angie's $49 deal which supposedly included the following as part of sprinkler system evaluation: Checking for line leaks, dry areas, and broken sprinkler heads Cleaning and adjusting clogged nozzles Checking rain sensor operation Setting controller for proper watering time and duration Adjusting all heads and rotors for most efficient coverage Checking up to six sprinkler zones The technician who came did just the first and the last one on the list above. He just walked around briskly, "inspected" each sprinkler head, looked for leaks and left a sign by each one that needed further attention. The problem, however, was, it wasn't easy communicating with him, he seemed rude at times, didn't bother to say a word or explain what the problem was. I had to follow him literally to each sprinkler head and ask him "what about this? Is this one okay?" Even then he would stay mum, say little, or just point to the ground and say "see?" What was I supposed to see? the broken head, leak around it, nozzle malfunction, raiser damage? Did it require a raiser seal or a new sprinkler head? Imagine asking him the same questions after following him to each single sprinkler head (and still get no satisfactory or comprehensible response)? I had more than 6 zones so I paid extra --which is okay because I realize that is what the deal terms stated. But I got an estimate at the end of this so called sprinkler system evaluation which seemed too pricey. The owner also offered 20% discount for angie's list customers. However, given the communication problem I had with the gentlemen who performed the service (and his poor attitude), I do not think I will avail of their service again. I must say I was not satisfied with the service overall. My suggestion: maybe some of their technicians need better people skills and stronger customer orientation. First impression is everything.

It didn't work out that great. Basically they came to service sprinkler literally just walked around and adjust one sprinkler and made it worse for me and then they called it a day and that was it. I also asked them to give me an estimate for some that I want to do and they are way overpriced. I would not use them again.

Carlos was very rude in giving the estimates...very bad service...for a single head the estimate given was $50 and labor of $35 total estimate given was $347 for 5 sprays and 2 heads. Please please don't use these guys at all. They just want to rip you off. Would never use them again. There was other company who gave me less than half the estimate for the same work.
Description of Work: I bought the Angie's list deal of sprinkler tune up of 6 zones for $49.99. Carlos came to look at it today. He started all the zones and checked the sprinkler heads and sprays. Marked all the ones that need to be replaced... Took an additional $5 for my 7th zone.... All the things mentioned in the deal were not performed... Gave me an estimate to change the heads and sprays...it was atrocious...

Response from Royal Irrigation
We are very disappointed and surprised by this review. We are happy that so many angies list members took advantage of the terrific deal that we offered. We provided great service-- we responded immediately to the purchase, booked a very quick appointment and our experienced technician conducted a thorough summer check-up. This member was upset with that he was charged for the 7th zone, and with the quote for repairs. The deal clearly stated that it was for 6 zones, and that there would be an additional $5 charge for each additional zone. Our technician diagnosed what needed to be repaired and provided the homeowner with an estimate for that work that was very reasonable. We pride ourselves on our professionalism, expertise and customer service. We look forward to working with you in the future.

My first contact with the office was a positive experience -- I've had enough bad ones to know the difference. Jay, the rep, was very professional and personable when he visited to give an estimate. He took his time surveying the area and provided a detailed estimate that we discussed before he left. He was very open to questions and available to work on this job within a couple weeks. My overall experience with this company was very positive. I ultimately decided to go with a more local company that was recommended by the landscaper (who will be doing related work in my yard). The prices were comparable. Based on my experience, I recommend this company.

Overall, the project went very well. The Royal Irrigation team was a significant factor in the success of the project.
Description of Work: Hurricane sandy took out 23 trees in what was once a wooded back yard. After removing the fallen trees, we were left with a 1/2 acre of rocks instead of woods. To make a yard, we had brought in clean fill and top soil. The plan was to bring in sod. Due to the fact that it needs to remain moist for several weeks to root properly, we needed to have an irrigation system installed. We obtained several estimates and Royal Irrigation's proposal was the most comprehensive and the price competitive. They worked very efficiently and as scheduled. This is a very professional team. So far, the system is working well.

Ed was very professional. He came to give me an estimate to install new drains, which will be done this spring. I had my sprinklers checked and shut down for winter. The technician that came was also very nice and professional. Scheduling an appointment was easy, and the woman who answered the phone was pleasant to speak with.
