They recommended a re-do of my plumbing because they saw what looked like a very low pressure system. Got a second opinion and it turned out they weren't measuring correctly

Every person I interacted with was great. the crew(s) did a fantastic job. There was a couple of week delay to finish up, but this was no fault of Austex (delays in receiving materials from their supplier) and I was informed at every step of the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone seeking their services

Don't hire Austex Sprinklers. This issue began last fall, but I wanted to wait until the conclusion of my court case. Now that it was decided in my favor, I thought I'd let you know. Last fall, I hired Austex Sprinklers to install a new sprinkler system in my yard. In the process, they severed my cable line and my backyard lighting system. They paid for the lighting system to be repaired; the cable company fixed that line for free. Some weeks later, we found that water was gushing from the sprinkler box area (we live on an incline, so we didn't notice for a while that the water was streaming downhill.). A plumber came out and found that it was the main water line and said it looked like it was cut when the sprinkler system was installed bc the lines are about an inch apart. Austex protested, but paid the plumbing bill. They would not pay the water overage amount, which was substantial even after the city gave us some mitigation credit. (Austex did offer me credit toward future projects, but I had no interest in having them work on anything again.) So the court settled in our favor and that matter was dealt with. In other news, the drip lines Austex put in also don't work properly. I timed them - it took five hours to drip enough water to reach the plants with any efficacy. I am replacing all those lines. In the meantime, the driplines blow apart every time they are turned on. Also, we had another high water bill, so, we had Bluebird Irrigation come out last month to determine why. He told us that the irrigation system was not on a pressure regulator. As a result, the heads were getting 90 psi and they should've been getting more like 45 psi, or even 30 for some heads. So now we will pay approximately $500 to put regulators on every sprinkler head so they work properly. This is also why the soaker hoses blew apart when we turned them on. Just a warning that this company's work for us was horrible and their dealings with us more than unpleasant. BTW: Please note that when I posted this on Yelp, Owner Phil Thompson responded that we did not win the judgement: 6/1/2021 Hi Laura, We were expecting this retaliatory review once you lost your civil suit against us. I suspect that the public, much like the judge in our case, will see through the facade and understand that your actions against us were unfounded. Unfortunately, the feeling is mutual regarding the unpleasant nature of our dealings with you as your plot to defraud my company began to take shape. With Kind Regards, Phil Thompson Unfortunately, this site doesn't let me post the judgement image here, but it was decided March 17, 2021 in our favor by Justice of the Peace Pamela Lancaster, Pct 2. CAUSE NO. J2-CV-20-003440. We were awarded $433 plus court costs. So the owner is a liar as well.

The technician was very polite. He arrived early. Now, not a fault of the technician, but the bad zone could not be detected nor located. It is possibly buried underneath the 2ft stone/sand patio, and too deep for the detector. Also we needed all of the values in the yard identified. The technician ID’ed with yard flags 6 of the 8 located/known valves but 2 of the 8 were not identified in the yard. Of course We know 1 of the total 9 zones was assumed buried too deep. The technician decided to replace a solenoid on one of the valves but discovered it was the wrong valve. He didn’t charge me for the solenoid but he didn’t subtract the time it took to remove/replace it. Overall, I know the technician worked hard but I expected better results. He didn’t closeout the service call very well by not cleaning up. He had left behind the bad solenoid on the garage floor and 3 yard flags on top of a tv in the garage, and the control panel door was obstructed by wires he’d left bundled. Pretty minor and petty for me to mention that, but the lack of cleanup weighed a little into the ‘C’ rating.

We used AustexSprinklers in 2016 and was satisfied every time they came to our home. Today we requested service for our irrigation sprinkler system which one of the sprinkler head had busted off. I must say that the response from the time that I requested service to the time of the service tech arrival was excellent. Anna the administrator/ scheduler was professional and courteous s she tried to accommodate our request. The service tech (Gilbert) arrived earlier than the schedule appointment, but he called in advance to let us know that he could come approximately 45 minutes early. Gilbert was very knowledgeable and professional. He answered any questions or concerns that we had. Gilbert also gave some great tips for watering and recommendation for how to best service our sprinklers in the future. I trust and believe in AustexSprinklers and will not use any other company as long as they are in business. We are 100% satisfied with the quality of work we received and will continue to use AustexSprinklers. I strongly recommend to other homeowners in the servicing area of this company to contact them if your sprinkler system needs service. They have a website that includes other services as well....lots of great info.

Online messaging to schedule was not effective. I ended up having to speak to someone - who was then unable to schedule based on my needs - despite these having been communicated earlier. Basically, messaging was a waste of time

Austex service technician (Frank) contacted us that he would be running late and that he had to pickup parts, which we understood. I appreciated that he contacted us about being late. He arrived as I was outside. I informed of some of the issues about the sprinkler system. Frank was extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He did a great job and explained what he did.

The technician was on time and found the problem quickly. He did not have the materials he needed to do the repair right then, but made another appointment to get the job done. I am a repeat customer and am very happy with the service and results.

Austex came and inspected, promised a quote that day. Received none. I reminded the rep. the next day by phone, who again promised a quote. That was three weeks ago, so wondering why they wasted my time (and theirs).

It's the busy season for irrigation companies so it took 2 weeks to schedule the visit; all 3 companies i called quoted me about the same backlog, so I certainly understand.
When the tech arrived (sorry, i can't remember his name), he checked all of the zones and i explained what i needed changed.  He quickly figured out what needed to be done and quoted me around $300.  The other companies i talked to quoted from $600 to $1000!
He started to work right away and the job turned out to be pretty complex and involved.  I gave him the opportunity to raise his price, but he refused; he stuck with his original cost estimate.

Everything is working well and the coverage on the yard is perfect.  Austex has a customer for life!

I phoned for an appointment and was able to get one within 3 days.  On the day of service, the technician Logan, called to let me know what time he expected to arrive.  He arrived as promised and listened as I described the problem.  He explained what he would do and then promptly went to work.  Within a short period of time, he resolved the primary problem (a valve that was stuck open) and identified one leaky sprinkler head.  Before going further, he checked with me to let me know what he had done and what the cost would be to fix the sprinkler head.  I approved the work gladly as I was expecting the cost to be much higher.  He made the repair, explained the 6 month warranty and we were good to go.  I would recommend Austex Sprinklers to my neighbors and friends.  They are local, friendly, affordable with great service by Logan.
