And the second head now does not hit the grass a foot away as he put in a 10 inch head and said it was better. My complaint is i dont want brown spots for the sprinklers not hitting them, he assured me all areas are being watered. So i totally understand we need rain but when he told me to after he came back out since i still had a leak to go to 3 days a week of course i did, still several brown spots showing up so i said i paid him to come back out another $50 dollars to fix the same leak in which he did then called him back today to tell him im not getting all the coverage. So he said i was impossible to deal with and walked away!!! Would not recommend someone who doesnt back up what they do. He comes across too busy to make it right. So now im out $150 dollars and still need someone to adjust my irrigation, so the moral of the story dont always believe what you read. Someone who is supposed to be awesome according to TOV didnt want to deal with me any more. Oh well bad news will travel much faster than good news. I suggested just give me my money back and he just walked away got in his truck and left. Not very professional at all.
***EXACTLY*** I read all the time about this guy or that guy or this or that company is the greatest thing since sliced toast. NOBODY is as good as what many on here profess, especially when it comes to anything residential. If any of these guys were any good they'd be working commercial/industrial, not making chump change doing residential work.
