JD Sprinklers

Derek did a great job for our project in Laguna Hills. Gave me good suggestions and did exactly what he promised, very professional, at a reasonable price. He even took care of a few additional things that weren't part of our original quote - which I really appreciated.

The project was done quickly, and as discussed. No surprises. Very happy with the end product.

He identified the source of the pressure problem, which was the regulator. He also fixed one of the valves.

JD did a really good job and gave me some good advice . He was prompt, courteous and very reasonable.

Called late morning to make an appointment. He came 30 minutes early to the prescribed appointment. Evaluation of work needed to be done and repairs made were done very quickly. The price charged was fair and very reasonable. I will hire this company again to do future repairs on my irrigation system.

The work was performed quickly with professionalism and high quality. It was very refreshing working with someone that is honest, punctual and fairly priced. These are the guys I'm turning to whenever I have sprinkler issues.

Issue was corrected

They did a great job.

We had some work done by Derek Whiston Sprinklers aka JD Sprinklers in August 2016. When a detailed invoice was requested so that we could submit a claim related to the repair, Wendy the admin said she couldn't do anything to help and Derek refused to provide "unless he got paid first." We attempted to further explain and even offered to outline what we needed through phone calls and emails. These went unanswered. After several weeks, an invoice and note threatening court action was sent to the tenant living at the property. Derek ignored additional attempts to resolve the issue and has since filed a lawsuit in small claims court against the tenant and owner who lives out of state. While we would normally prefer to support a small local business owner I would NOT recommend Derek Whiston Sprinklers if you need professional service repair. He may be cheap and on-time but Derek and his employees lack basic customer service and communication skills.

It went great and was very efficient.

Went great and had some other very good recommendations!

I am exremely impressed by four things. 1. How quick I was able to get this expert to our house. 2. How fast he was able to complete the job. 3. The quality of the work and 4. How reasonable the price was. Hey Orange County, look no further for sprinkler repair. He has all the qualities I look for in any vendor and you can't beat the price. I would use him again and recommend him to others with sprinkler repair needs.

Amazing service! Derek came on his Saturday @ 1pm just to help me, so when they say "24 hrs. Emergency Repair", they mean it! Super sweet, on time, and super helpful and fixed our leak for a very low price! And by the way, the person who recently wrote a bad review on this company doesn't know what he is talking about! Derek was so professional and drove all the way from Santa Margarita to come help me which is about a good 2 hours away, especially on his Saturday!! I just can't stress this enough, because everyone else that I called were either closed or didn't want to help me right there on the spot. This company will have my Buisness FOREVER!!!

Derek was very responsive, courteous, and efficient in assessing and fixing the problem. Three valves needed replacing. He also checked all sprinkler heads and replaced a couple that weren't efficiently dispensing spray.

The job described to him was "fix the wiring on the sprinkler heads and check all of the sprinklers to make sure each has the right type of head and is adjusted properly (not watering too much/too little and facing the correct direction). I left the house for about 30 minutes. When I came back, he said he was done; fixed the wiring and replaced one broken sprinkler. I asked him if he checked all of the sprinklers to see if they were adjusted properly. He said yes. He told him how much I owed him and gave him a check. Problems: 1) he did not introduce himself when he arrived, 2)he did not check the sprinklers. I have sprinklers watering the concrete and plant areas that are dry. 3) I have a large note on the sprinkler timer that says, "do not change any settings on the timer," yet he changed the settings without asking me or telling me, 4) I faked him for his business card. He said its in the timer, got in his truck and left. In my timer, he had glued his business card onto the directions on the timer, and glued a 2nd one on the plastic. The glue was still wet, so I was able to remove them, but the glue had already destroyed the instructions.

Derek and his wife Wendy were very prompt. They got back to us right away and gave us a bid quickly. Derek is professional And did a quality job. We are super happy with his service and highly Recommend Derek.

Could not have gone better. After getting home late one night, I discovered a large leak and that my timer had failed. I called at 9:30 PM expecting to leave a message, but Wendy answered the phone and was able to schedule me for the following day! Derek came out at the exact appointment time and quickly found and repaired all issues, including replacing the sprinkler timer with a new unit. He found and repaired the leak, replaced several sprinkler heads, and tuned the whole system front and back yards. The entire system is working perfectly now....

I initially thought about trying to do what I needed done myself but decided it was a bit much for me, and I'm very glad I decided against it.  I first called another company, which was going to charge me over $80 to come check out the job and then give me a price with the estimate fee applied to the job. That's maybe reasonable considering it takes a person his time to come out and give an estimate, but I think that almost locks you into hiring him with money already invested.  Anyway, I decided to call JD Sprinkler and Wendy answered and said there was no charge for their on-site estimate, which worked for me because I wasn't sure what general price we were talking about yet.  Derek came out and I told him what I wanted, and he gave me his price, and because he seemed to know what he was talking about and because of all the favorable Angie's reviews and the fact that his price seemed very reasonable, I hired him.

The sprinkler repairs and installation of the new drains took place over parts of a few days, which was fine with me because it wasn't an emergency job and Derek needed to bring different equipment over different days and let some things dry before doing the next stage.  I won't go through all the work he did for us, I'll just summarize by saying THANK GOODNESS I didn't attempt it myself.  Derek knows what he's doing, and he did a great job for us, handling issues I didn't even know were part of what the job entailed.  His work was outstanding, the finished product is outstanding, and his price for all he did for us was more than reasonable. 

And no, I could not have come close to matching what Derek did if I had tried to do it myself.  If/when I have any sprinkler/drain issues I need handled in the future, I will definitely hire this company again.

Awesome company. The office staff called within minutes of me submitting info on Angies list. With the crazy water shortage scares I was very pleased  within a few hours they had someone to my house.  On the phone I had even said main unit was almost 20 yrs old so I was open to replacing it.  Nope!!! they are very honest.  Sprinkler issue ended up being my neighbors artificial turf  leaking water from its sprinklers tapped off below.  Valve.. even though they all look old only one needed repair so only one got fixed!
Price for same day repair was less than my normal garden charges to look at my sprinklers.  So glad I called these people first!
They will be my go to sprinkler people from now on.  So nice to have a water issue totally resolved  from phone call to installation of new parts all finished
in a few hours!!!!

Derek was polite, thorough, and professional.  This is the first time we?ve used his services and are glad to have had the work done by him.  Thank you, Derek!

Went very well and after completion and removal of tree roots and replacement of several sprinkler lines every thing worked great.
Technician was courteous and prompt .

This is an exceptional Team! They were prompt and professional when setting appointment and the job was done on-time and with outstanding results. They were great communicators and offered pricing we thought was a good value. I highly recommend JD Sprinklers - the project could not have gone better.
