Our Family Legacy

Shannon took over the operations for Howard in 2020 in hopes to continue building the company her dad worked hard to establish in 1989. Starting with just a small number of customers, we have grown to over 700 customers. Howard developed great relationships with all his customers throughout the years and worked hard to meet their irrigation needs. It's because of his attitude that we still service customers that have been here since the very beginning.

We strive to have an energetic, educated, and kind attitude towards all of our customers.

The repairs are not always 100% guaranteed to fix the problem. In 85% of cases, the replacement parts do work and the other 15% end up having to replace the entire device. Typically customers will move forward with trying replacement parts before going straight to replacement. We do our best to provide expertise after evaluating the backflow and situation. In some cases after looking at repair history or the age of the device, we will go straight to recommending replacement. And other times we do suggest trying new parts first. Our technicians are not able to fully diagnose whether a part will work or not without installing the new part. The labor and part the costs incurred by the customer.
