Aquaman

About us

I am Dan the Aquaman. I specialize in the installation and maintenance of micro-irrigation systems in the city of Chicago. The methods and materials I use allow me to create the most water efficient and cost effective system on the market. No new plumbing is involved, as I run off of existing hose spigots. Can be used with or without a timer. My systems are ideal for lawns, gardens, rooftop gardens, decks, pots, and containers. I can even help you create a system that runs off of a rain barrel. Micro-irrigation saves water by targeting specific areas. It reduces run-off and water loss due to evaporation. Best of all the up front cost is just a fraction of what a conventional underground system would cost. I have one employee named Trevor who has been working with me since I started my business in 2005. I have hundreds of satisfied customers in Chicago. I'm always more than happy to give free estimates and consultations. Scheduled maintenance in the spring and fall is a $50 service call. Thank you for supporting local businesses!

and quot;Dan the Aquamanand quot;'s micro irrigation system is a high quality, low cost alternative to traditional lawn care systems that entail more intrusive installations. For 1/3 or less of the cost, Dan will install a total coverage installation system ideally suited for urban landscapping, covering both lawns and gardens.
Dan himself is skilled, highly knowledgeable, resposive and extremely service oriented. He answered all my calls promply and addressed by questions and concerns expertly. We are extremely happy with the end product and highly recommend his services.

The watering system is wonderful. Dan, the owner of the company, does installations of watering systems even with small gardens and if you do not have a whole underground sprinkler system or if you have a tiny little city yard. My gardener gave me his name and he has been out not only to install the system but also to winterize it, to clear out the lines and everything at a completely reasonable cost. He charges me $50 to close it and another $50 to open it up again in the spring. I like that he is always prompt and he reminds you that the lines need to be flushed in the winter to make them safe. I have had my system now for three years and I have had no problems. It is a very cost effective way to get my garden watered without going through the whole thing of putting in an underground sprinkler system.

With my initial call, Dan was nearby and able to give me a quote that day! Otherwise he thought it might be 8-10 days later. He e-mailed the quote and I confirmed my agreement via e-mail.
He and Ross arrived on the agreed upon date and they went to work. They spent most of the day with the install as I do have a large yard.
A two weeks later, Dan sent a very itemized bill via e-mail. I had some questions about how things worked and Ross stoppped by to answer them and ensure the system worked well as I had an arborist and landscaper in my yard in the interval between the inital install (6/12/13) and this follow up (7/25/13)
Their install was sensitive to the use of the yard and ensuring all the plants would be watered. They know what they are doing and did an excellent job.

Dan did a great job last year and my garden is watered on a regular cycle without my intervention. His work is meticulous. Anybody who has an urban container garden and small space should strongly consider implementing a micro watering system!
