It sounds too high to me. I pay $55 per month to Massey for mowing, I do my own Roundup spraying, and I pay less than $100 to trim my shrubs about every 4 months, but I don't have a regular contractor to do it.

Who ever you pick only pay monthly. Never signup for a yearly contract.

I have the SimplySafe video receipts to prove my claims...

Massey will check my irrigation system for $40 per quarter, and they will come almost immediately to repair an irrigation leak, and they are way cheaper than any other irrigation company I have found. They are also the cheapest lawn mowing service, who is also reliable.

I will happily pretend to check on your irrigation system for even less, $30 per quarter. I would then on occasion report an irrigation leak and say that I had repaired that leak too even though none of your neighbors had any similar issues in the same time period.

I only have Massey so, when a sprinkler head breaks, I have someone to call who will fix it promptly and won't charge a huge amount. They usually fix it for free in one day. I don't want to call around to find someone when I need them. So far, I have not found a reliable irrigation company to do that.

I operate the controller myself and I know when I have a leak, but I just don't want to repair the leaks myself. The last irrigation company I called wanted a minimum of $90 for every visit. Another company wanted $80 to just evaluate my system before doing anything.
