It was my misunderstanding. I felt like they would be able to perform some repairs at the time. Initially what they would do is an inspection and schedule some repairs at a later date. I need the repair done sooner so I've gone with someone else. They were very good at contacting me and it was an overall positive experience.

Wonderful. Brad is terrific. Professionalism is 100%. It was a bit difficult to schedule a service date, but once we did schedule, it was smooth sailing. Office staff is very professional and attentive, very courteous and listens to our needs. We had a big addition done recently and our sprinkler system in the back yard got messed up.He did not try to get us to do more than we were expecting or tell us that we needed anything extra, just adjust what was there and redirect the spray etc. He is thorough, explains everything he does and answers all our questions and makes sure everything is running to our satisfaction before he left. BEST THING: He called the day after to check if we were happy with the sprinklers and to let him know if anything else comes up.

The offer was for a sprinkler system inspection for $99. I have had sprinkler systems for over 20 years and that always means head adjustments and repairs, since the main expense (esp in Houston, which is big and has a lot of traffic) is the trip charge/ labor. This company offered that for $99. My usual guy is $87, but is difficult to deal with, so I thought I'd try them out. When they said it was just for a report and a second visit would be required, I felt ripped off. They were prompt and courteous in their communication, but I am not interested in spending over $200 total to get my sprinkler system buffed up when, even with parts, the total charge should be under $100.

Response from ZODEGA-TIS
[member name removed], We appreciate your feedback, even if we disagree with it. You mentioned being unhappy with your old contractor and that we were prompt, polite and professional. We take a great deal of pride in that. Did you know that, depending upon which study you read, between 50% and 70% of all of the water we consume as a nation is irrigation related? Are you also aware that Texas A&M did a study a few years back that found the average acre of irrigated landscape to be over-watered by as much as 300%? Taylor Irrigation is not a group of unlicensed, illegal contractors that simply know how to glue pipe together. Our service technicians are fully licensed irrigation contractors with a college education. My staff understands the relationship between the plants, water and soil which puts us in position to reduce your water consumption while creating the healthiest landscape possible. Our presence on site creates significant value to the client because of these things and we are one of few companies in town (in any construction industry) that can justify our being on site because we will save you more money through reduced water than you will ever spend on a tune-up. Two years ago the state of Texas passed HB2507 into law making it a class c misdemeanor to practice irrigation without a license and it is now punishable by fines and/or jail time. This change in the law is a direct result of poor contractors that do not have the proper training showing up to jobsites, like yours, and not understanding water... not understanding irrigation or plant health. This law is aimed at reducing water consumption because we cannot sustain our current pace. Please do not take my word for it; we have won back to back Angie's Super Service Awards which put us in the top 5% of service providers according to the clients... I am one of five irrigation designers in the U.S. to win the EPA Partner of the Year Award for my water conservation efforts and initiatives. My company lectures on irrigation and water conservation all across the United States. Just this morning we were informed that we won the "2014 Best of Houston" award in the Landscape Irrigation category (the only irrigation company to win an award). Please look at the grades we receive here on Angie's for providing this very service. Among the ten or so poor grades we have ever received please note that almost all of those grades were from clients, like you, that never used our service. Again, we certainly respect your opinion but without using any of our services I feel that it is uninformed and that you are comparing us to other companies that may or may not be doing what we do. We are not the average irrigation company and we are not interested in becoming an average irrigation company. We do what we do because there is a real need for it; reducing water consumption and waste, creating sustainable landscapes, ensuring codes are met, protecting our water sources and providing real value to our clients by doing all of this. My personal challenge to you is to take us up on one of our services one day and evaluate my company based on what we do rather than what you are guessing we do. John A.

I hadn't heard back from the provider and was unable to reach them by email, phone, or the message center on Angie's List. I have since contacted a provider I have used in the past to schedule services to repair my sprinkler head.

Response from ZODEGA-TIS
[removed member name], Thank you for the feedback and I apologize for your experience. I just sat down with my office manager to review this matter as today is the first I have heard of it. She reports to me that you purchased a seasonal tune-up (which is clearly defined here on Angie's List as adjusting nozzles, heads and controller while reporting any damage) which is not a repair. That tune-up was purchased on a Monday and we responded within the two business day window that Angie's requires. I will admit that I would prefer all of our responses and scheduling be within one business day but that is not always possible. If you take a look in the Angie's List message center you will see that this is indeed the case. My office manager also reported that you called her regarding this matter on Thursday afternoon and that she returned your call and spoke to you on Friday morning. Again, I am okay with this turn around time (return calls made within one business day). She also reports that he have no email from you so I am not sure what was sent or when. The service that you purchased through Angie's was a tune-up that specified it was not a repair but what you needed was a repair (broken head or line). In the future, regardless of what company you choose, I would recommend calling in before making a purchase so as to be certain that what you are purchasing is what you need. Again, my sincerest apologies and as much as I hate getting a "C" I am just not certain there was anything more we could do in this particular case. If anything I have posted here does not seem accurate or if you have anything to add (even an idea on how we can better handle situations like this in the future) I would love to hear from you. We wish you well with future projects. John A. Taylor (832) 727-1389 john@taylorirrigation.com

Bradley arrived on time and did a complete inspection. He said I was watering too often and adjusted my controller, both for time in each zone and to water only four times a week. I received an email report in a few days from Bradley. I had several heads that needed to be raised and a couple that needed to be moved. He quoted the price to do the job at $165 and I had the job done. I am very happy with their service and I have noticed that my lawn is looking better since Bradley made the adjustments to my controller.

Whether it is their office operations or the uneven nature of e-mail, I never received the assessment and the estimate for the work. I got one estimate from the phone conversation with the technician, and then when I got the invoice for about $100 more, I was surprised. I called Taylor, and the owner replied to me via e-mail answering all my questions. When I asked for an itemized invoice, it was sent right away. They justified their charge. I'd use these folks again. They did a thorough assessment, fixed the problems and provided me with the documentation I needed to petition the City for a reduction in a very large water bill They do business in the old-fashioned way, even if electronic communication failed them. It's follow-through and competence that count, and these folks have it, along with an owner that understands customer service is important.
Description of Work: A very well-qualified staff member came out and evaluated our sprinkler system, described some of the problems to me over the phone, and said that a written estimate would follow. Houston rains over the past few months interfered with the scheduled evaluation. That's Mother Nature, not Taylor. But I never received the written assessment and estimate.

Brian showed up on time. Did the work that had previously been suggested from my initial tune up. Everything works perfectly and Brian took the time to show me how to properly operate the control panel as I didn't have a manual for it. This is such a great company to work with. I would not hesitate to hire them again. Very reputable and honest company.

There were no troubles with scheduling. They came out and completed the inspection ion two different properties. They gave me a bid for additional work on one, but I chose to have another company do the work that had a bid $150 lower. On the other property, they completed the tune up and repairs. There were no issues with the work.

It was really fine. The guy came and he gave me the assessment. He was very professional and told me the cost upfront and I was very happy with that. He only did the assessment because what I needed to have done was too expensive. He got the assessment done in about one hour. The scheduling was quite easy and every time I sent them an email they would respond back punctually. They showed up when they were supposed to.

[removed member name], Thank you for the review, it is very good to hear from you. We have had an estimate ready for you since May 10, 2014 but have no contact information for you. If you take a look in your Angie's List message center you will see that we have requested that information specifically so that we could send your tune-up report and estimate but we had not heard back from you until now. If you would like that report (even if you no longer need the repair), please give us a call or respond to us via the message center here on Angie's List. This is a very good lesson for any Angie's member to learn from: When a service is purchased through Angie's we (the contractor) receive no information whatsoever from Angie's save for the name. We do not get an email address or a phone number and we are requested, by Angie's, to contact the client via the message center until that information is provided (by the clients themselves). I apologize for not getting your tune-up report to you but with no contact information for you we were awaiting a response within the message center and after enough time passed (having not heard from you via email, phone call or message center), we figured that you simply did not need the report. Please let me know if there is anything else we can do to help. John A. Taylor (832) 727-1389 john@taylorirrigation.com

Initial contact was to discuss coordination for installation of irrigation meter in conjunction with Mickie Service. I requested a system inspection in advance to determine any required repairs that would be necessary to meet current code requirements and determine the cost of necessary repairs. Base fee quoted for tying in from new meter by Mickie to irrigation system was $800. Taylor arrived precisely on time a few days after scheduling to my convenience. They first checked my meter and determined a system leak since the meter was spinning with no interior devices turned on. They also noted water coming from my backyard drainage system (it had rained heavily during the night). They toured the front checking all heads and searching for wet spots. Moving to the backyard, they located the main drain junction box and some exposed irrigation piping connecting from front to rear yards. A little digging (line was about 2 feet deep) and the ground was saturated. They exposed and repaired the leak which was occurring in a compression fitting. Replaced this with a welded fitting and waiting 30 minutes to test the system. Voila, no leaking. Total cost of repair was $250.00. Firm cost to lower quite a few spray heads to code height (below backflow preventer) was $200. The next day, I received a call from the owner who suggested that I monitor water bills and usage prior to investing $2000 in a new meter. He advised that I needed an average usage of 20,000 gallons per month to achieve a reasonable payback. So, I am watching and monitoring for a month or two before making the decision. This is the approach more service companies could take. Very professional attitude and approach.

I was very impressed from the first contact. Brad was very professional and informative and even though the first visit bought through Angie's List did not include repairs, he replaced a sprinkler head that had broken off. Soon, I received an email with the suggested repairs and the cost. Brian and a helper came back and went over everything he was going to do and did the repairs and all is well. So refreshing to have a company do what they say they are going to do and be so pleasant to work with!

They were very thorough and detailed in their audit. They then had some suggestions on areas to fix and I thought their pricing was very reasonable. They talked me out of a second water meter for my outdoors stating that the fixes they made would reduce my water bill a lot. Very professional company. Would highly recommend them. They were on time, work was high quality and their prices very fair.

The appointment was scheduled for a couple weeks after I purchased the deal. The technician who came out was courteous and did a fine job with the inspection. They were unable to complete the tune-up because the backflow valve was not installed properly, they could not complete the tune-up because of code. They offered to complete the repair for $300, but I did not have them do the work.

It was hard to schedule with them. They emailed me with a date without asking if I was available. I emailed them back letting them know of a better appointment time and we scheduled it. I would think that inspection of the system would at least entail adjustment of the sprinkler heads. The details of the deal do say that the adjusting of heads was included and he did nothing but just walked my premises. He did adjust the time on the sprinkler. There were areas where the sprinkler heads needed to be adjusted. He said that adjusting was not included in the deal. I asked him if he could adjust the heads for additional costs and he said that would require another appointment. I asked for them to send me a quote for seasonal maintenance services for the system as well and they said they would get back to me, but they never did. I got nothing out of this deal and I do not know what I paid for.

We were impressed by the quick response to our service call. Their team repaired and reset the broken sprinkler heads. We appreciate their honest assessment of the problem. It is possible that a dishonest company would have told us pipes were broken and charged us much more. We highly recommend Taylor Irrigation. They are honest, professional and punctual.

Brian arrived at the scheduled time. He was very professional and polite. I had let them know prior to them coming out that one of the sprinkler heads would need to be replaced before testing the system. Brian installed new head at no charge. Brian tested the system, adjusted all nozzles and set timer. I received a estimate of things I knew that needed to be fixed/changed. including repairing of a water line. The next day I received the estimate and was very pleased that the total to have this done would be $189.00 So I called today to have the work scheduled to be done. I have recently moved here and had no knowledge of sprinkler systems. I had found someone on craigslist about 2 months ago that came out and told me I need an entirely new system and wanted to charge me $1500.00 just for the back yard alone. I'm so glad I joined Angies list and found Taylor Irrigation Service what a great honest company with good people...A+ for me
