Same as above. I did not use this contractor as he did not call when told he would with an estimate of cost.
Description of Work: Called for an appointment for an estimate for work on an existing drip irrigation system and Rudy Dominguez scheduled it for 07/28/2011. The young man that came out was very courtesy and professional, and arrived 1/2 hour early which was very convenient for me. He walked around the yard as I showed him where some newly planted plants needed tubings to them, and others needed adjusting as too much or too little water was going to some plants/shrubs/trees. After surveying the situation, the young man stated that I had too many plants for one line, only, and recommended that at least another line be added. However, he could not give me an estimate as he would have to talk with Rudy Dominguez about what he observed since it was not just a matter of adding or repairing tubings. I told him that I would be leaving out-of-town early the next morning for 8 days, and he stated that he would get Rudy to call me that evening with an estimate of the cost. I did not receive a call the evening of 07/28/2011, nor was there a message from Rudy when I returned 8 days later. I never called to follow-up as I felt that Rudy should have done so. I plan to use another service provider.

I called Discount Sprinklers after I could not shut off an outside water faucet and had been having trouble with another faucet. They responded immediately.
Description of Work: I used Discount Sprinklers to replace 3 outside water faucets that were originally sticking up 4 ft above ground. They installed them in ground level boxes and replaced all the piping to the faucets. The guys were timely; very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and efficient!

I noticed that some of my plants were dying and water was pooling in some areas. I called Discount Sprinklers because of their excellent rating on Angie's List. Jorge came out promptly and was able to diagnose the problem right away, which was not easy since he had to remove a lot of gravel to find the leak. The system was fixed and everything is working properly. I would definately recommend this company for any irrigation work.

The man came over and he quickly assessed the situation and he noticed that there was a broken pipe. We made an appointment. The younger guy that came out to do the work was not very thorough. He was not totally experienced like I was expecting. I cannot say that it was their fault, or any fault at all it's just that I have a few doubts. I had to probe him to see if everything was working right and check the dripper system. I asked him to go over every individual thing. He was nice in doing what I asked him to do after I asked him about these issues. Maybe it is just me, or maybe it was not required to be that thorough. It seems like everything is going good, and the grass is growing well. I know that the sprinklers are going off at 7pm and everything seems to be working. There is one area that is not getting any water, but there is not a dipper there, and I am not sure if I should have a new one added there. I just assumed that you could not add a dripper there, I should ask them about this situation next time I talk with them.

I thought they were fine. I don't know how to compare them to anyone else because I haven't had work like that in a long time. We had a bit of a mix-up about the time so they came late on Friday. I think they were just busy and overwhelmed but I don't know if it was worse than anyone else would have been. They were responsive and they tried hard to solve our issue. They didn't leave until 7:00 pm on Friday because they were so busy. I didn't call anyone else because they were highly rated on Angie's List and my neighbors thought the price was reasonable. I think the work they did was fine because the sprinklers work now. There was just one thing that they said they would do that they forgot, but they didn't charge me for it.

They are very professional and show up when they say they will. They have a supervisor come out and analyze what needs to be done. He then schedules an appointment for when one of the technicians comes out. Everybody shows up and does their job. They are very professional and I put them at the top of the heap. I don't think they are the cheapest, but I have no proof of that. I called them about 3 weeks after the project because one of the sprinklers wasn't working. They sent someone out there that day and performed the adjustment I needed. I will use them again in the future.

As stated above, no services were supplied as he never responded.
Description of Work: The owner, Rudy came out to my home 2 1/2 weeks ago and I spent about a half-hour of my time going over what needed to be and/or what I thought the problems were. He told me he'd get back to me with an estimate by that Thursday. I never heard from him again. That kind of bad service is not necessarily abnormal in New Mexico, which in many ways is more like a Third World Country the a U.S. state, but it's still puzzling since his name was given to me by my next door neighbor who uses his weekly landscape services.

Rudy (owner) came out as soon as I called to give me an estimate. He was very pleasant and informative. He assessed the situation, gave me his recommendation and an estimate for the job. His workers were late on the day they were to arrive due to finishing up another job, but they still came out late in the day and completed the work in 1 1/2 hours. They did an excellant job and were very pleasant to deal with. They were very careful as to not harm the many new small plants in that area which required particular attention. Rudy sent me out a bill for the amount of the estimate. I am very pleased with the outcome and would work with them again.
Description of Work: I needed the drip system in a small area approaching the front door of my house changed, requiring new poly lines run and drip heads put in at each of about 35 new little plants.

The technician was curtious and knowledgable. I was pleased with how quickly he solved the problem. Also I like that they take credit cards.
Description of Work: I live in a 55 year old house with the original sprinkler system under rock landscaping. I haven't used it since I moved in 6 years ago. This weekend I noticed a lot of water collecting in one area of the yard. I called Rudy first thing Monday morning and he had someone out at 10am. A pipe had burst down in the old system. The technician was able to locate the problem and cap the line in a little over 1 hour. He filled the holes with the dirt and covered with rock once the repair was complete.

They had a 20% discount coupon and had advertised it on Angie's List. I have been using them every month. Their price was reasonable. They were not always on time and came out whenever they wanted to. They got the job done. They did a good job. They have been coming once a month at the beginning of the month because I did not have anything set with them. I was usually not aware as to when they would come.

I decided to have the main water line replaced, although a substantial amount more costlier than just a repair, was the best option for me. I did not want to have to deal with potential future breaks, which would most likely occur with polybutylene installed. Discount Sprinklers installed a quality product for the replacement of the pipeline, which is being used by home builders today, and analyzed the best option for install. In my case, they went under the existing driveway and dug a trench in the front lawn (which was going to be covered with rock) and ran the line to the house. There are absolutely no visible signs of where they trenched and I feel confident in the work performed. Athough an extremely busy time for Discount Sprinklers, they scheduled the repair work for the very next day. They made all the arrangements contacting the utility companies and made every effort to make the situation as doable as possible during the time the water needed to be shut off. The fellows worked diligently and professionally and got the job done in a day. I will admit...I was a little concerned about a lawn irrigation company replacing a main line water break...but I would hire and recommend this company in a heartbeat to do any type of irrigation/repair work. This is a top notch company and truly works for the customer! I will definitely be calling them when I need additional work done...backyard, here we come!
Description of Work: We were getting ready to zero scape our front lawn when I noticed water coming from near one of the sprinkler heads. I checked Angieslist and called Discount Sprinklers to come out to diagnose the problem and cap off the sprinkler heads since they were no longer going to be needed. The diagnosis/estimate from Discount Sprinklers showed the leak to be due to a main line water break...not the sprinkler system. Not a surprise since this area has poly pipeline which is notorious for breaks. The gentleman providing the estimate called his boss (Rudy) to determine how much it would cost to have the main line repaired and/or replaced. I was given a fair estimate and options regarding what to do.

I have a 35 yr old house and over the years previous owners have added cable lines all over the outside walls. One cable in particular always bugged me because it ran down from the ceiling to the ground right next to my sliding door (very ugly). I decided to cut it out one day thinking it was an unused cable TV wire. Turns out it was for my underground sprinkler system! I found Discount Sprinklers on Angie's List and called. They came out the next day to give me an estimate. $225 for my stupid mistake! Two days later, they came out to do the job. They were very quick and efficient and tested my system thoroughly before declaring the job done. In the process, they noticed an unusual amount of water flowing from the base of a raised garden bed surrounding a tree in my front yard. They dug down to investigate and discovered a leaking underground pipe caused by a tree root. They asked me if I wanted them to repair it and just as I said yes, they received an emergency call from the office. Even so, they stayed long enough to find the leak, cut the pipe (which was buried about 18 inches deep), and cap it before leaving for the emergency call. They came back 2 days later to finish the job. They had not closed my bill from the wiring job until they determined the combined total for the work. They finished the work even though we were not home and left the bill for us to mail in the payment. They put the bricks back around the garden (although they did a poor job and I had to re-do it) and cleaned up after themselves. Although I thought the wiring work was over-priced, they charged a reasonable amount for the pipe work, considering that was unplanned and they had to come back to complete the work. Overall, I'm pleased with the work they did and company itself.
Description of Work: Ran new wire between sprinkler control box and vlaue box, fixed leaking underground pipe.

I found a leak in my drip irrigation so I called Discount Sprinklers, whom I've used before. They asked me when it was convenient for me to make the appointment. They came 2 days later, earlier than my scheduled appointment. By the time I got there, they had already fixed the problem. They were very professional and thorough.
Description of Work: They actually came earlier than my appointment, had already located the problem with my broken drip irrigation pipe, and fixed it before I arrived. They also repaired another problem that I discovered while they were there. They fixed everything and were finished within an hour.

On the morning of 6/8 we arrived at our newly purchased house to discover a sprinkler zone was stuck and had been running all night and flooding the back of our lot. I called Angie's List and asked for a recommendation. I called Discount Sprinklers and the owner Rudy sent Lonnie and an assistant who arrived quickly from Albuquerque. They had the water off and the broken valve replaced quickly and then checked the rest of the system at my request. Lonnie returned in a few days and replaced another leaking valve that would have caused even greater damage since it was close to the well. They also installed a new faucet and did other minor repairs. Lonnie was very patient and showed us how to adjust the sprinkler heads and taught us how to adjust the timer. Lonnie was very efficient, professional, and friendly.
Very helpful initial consultation, was not charged for initial estimate. Worked with my difficult schedule for service.
Description of Work: Replaced sprinkler box valves, fixed low pressure issue. Required a good amount of manual labor.

I told them that the other quotes I received were too high, at $65.00 an hour. The man I spoke with told me that his technicians were around $35.00 an hour. A man came out and did 3 hours of work and they ended up charging at about $72.00 per hour. I didn't realize the difference in price until after the work was complete. It is not very professional to quote one price over the phone and then charge an entirely different price on the bill. The entire time the man was here working, the boss kept calling and telling him he needed to leave and work on another job. It was not the technician's fault, he was very good.
Description of Work: They were supposed to redo all of my irrigation system.

The two man team worked well. Built new manifold system, removed the old system, connected the new valve manifold to the supply line, two sprinkler feeds and outdoor spigot, tied in the new electric lines from the valves to the timer control box, mounted the timer control box when we had easy access to it, cleaned up. They provided a through explaination of how to operate the controls, provided the manuals for the timer and made sure we understood that they were available if we had problems. The entire process took a little more than two hours. Definitely would hire again. The final cost was about $30.00 under the verbal estimate.
Description of Work: replaced old and leaking manual lawn sprinkler controls with new modern dual valve manifold, backflow preventers, insolation valve, and tie in to line for outdoor spigot. All of this was placed in a valve box. Added modern outdoor timer control on the deck. Prior to their arrival we had excavated and exposed most of the old controls.

We had a real problem arise in the work. However, I give Rudy and his crew a lot of credit for making it right. They went to a lot of extra work to fix everything better than new, and took complete responsibility and did the right thing. In this day and age we don't see that very often, so I give Rudy really high marks here. On the job, they did some extra things just because it made sense to, like replace the pipe on my automatic pool fill even though it was not part of the original quote.
Description of Work: Replaced old sytem from water main to valves, eliminated an old zone, added a new one. Installed underground valves in boxes so they are easy to access.
