Default Yard sprinkler problem

My yard water bill has been very high. I went to Talk of the Villages and I found James Baumgartner, who lives here in TV. Lucky me, lucky us! He answered his phone when I called, made an appointment for 4 days later and he was right on time. Lots of adjustments, new rain sensor and a few new sprinkler heads and I'm good to go.

With the cost of water I figure Mr. Baumgartner's tune-up will pay for itself in just a couple of months. We all should have this done twice a year, but at least once a year.

Thank you Mr. Baumgartner.

I've been shouting Jim's praises for at least 6 years, probably 7. Have never regretted it. He really is one of true good guys.

Jim tuned our sprinkler system yesterday afternoon. He fixed several issues and gave us some very helpful advice. He is reasonable and honest - would highly recommend him.
