Peninsula Irrigation Company

Fantastic service and experience– they replied quickly to my initial voicemail, sent a reminder email the day before my appointment, and the tech (Josh, who was great) called when he was on his way. All in all, it took about 45 minutes for our issue to be diagnosed and fixed, with clear explanations of what was happening and why. Josh also explained other, non-​critical, issues with our sprinklers, what it would cost to fix them, and then left me to make a decision about it without any pressure or salesmanship.
I’ll definitely call them again.

My sprinklers were leaking and Robert showed up in 15 minutes. He diagnosed and resolved it immediately. He will be back to fix the old valves causing the problem next week. The fact that Robert showed up to stop the leak was very much appreciated. I highly recommend Peninsula Irrigation and Robert. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. Any future work on sprinklers is definitely going to Peninsula Irrigation.

Very pricey. I found someone else to come out and repair my sprinkler problems, parts and labor included, for less than what Peninsula Irrigation wanted to charge just to come out and look for 30 minutes. Unless you have a complex job, I would keep looking.

They installed a new smart controller for my irrigation system (Rachio Iro). Robert showed up, installed, and walked me through the setup personally. It was very efficient, without any padding or wasted time. It’s working great, so the effort was much appreciated. Recommended.

Truly as good as it gets for service!
Robert was quick and efficient; had a constant leak from a sprinkler head, which was diagnosed and fixed in 30 minutes. Super friendly and answered all my questions and this was all on Christmas eve
worth every penny, thanks

Two hours late for an initial appointment and no communication that they are going to be late or need to reschedule or?
Not a good start when presumably they are trying to get our business.
Too bad. Peninsula Irrigation sounded great on these Unilocal reviews and it took over 3 weeks to get on their schedule for an estimate.

USE THESE GUYS! Robert just left, took 30 minutes changed sprinkler heads, solenoids. He was great, professional and friendly. Sprinklers are working great now. Even showed me how to easily check for leaks. Definitely the only place I will use for irrigation from now on.

Good communication from office on appointment time (including a reschedule). Technician arrived right on time, gave estimate of repair work, and completed repair work quickly while talking me through what he was doing. Took the time to explain the programmable timer to me (this was a repair on existing system I inherited with new home). All in all good service prior and on site. Tad expensive rate, but totally upfront with costs. Everything still working months later. Would recommend.

Had two valves that were not working in my 20-​year old sprinkler system. Josh came out and was able to diagnose and fix the problems in about an hour. While he arrived a little late he called in advance to let me know. He was knowledgable and professional. While not cheap you get what you pay for (and the office communicated their rates ahead of time so there was no surprise). Very happy.

I had Peninsula Irrigation out to work on a very old sprinkler system. Old sprinkler heads that did not work properly and one that just pools. Robert called to let me know he was running a bit late and when he showed up he was very quick, efficient and educational. He dug up the lawn around each of the sprinkler heads and replaced them with new pop up heads that spray inwards and don’t over-​spray and waste water on the sidewalk. He replaced all of the lawn and it looks just like it did before he arrived. He will be coming back to do the side yard. I am very happy with the new sprinklers and very pleased with really good service!

I’m not sure what happened. I had them back out here to give us a quote on checking irrigation and running addition lines to our garden beds. I received a quote for over $ 3k. Other quotes I have received were in the $ 1k range.
I’m not sure if they sent out a junior guy to do the quote or if they have gotten too popular that they can charge outrageous prices. They have lost my business.

We had a problem with our sprinkler system and timer. Our cousin recommended Peninsula Irrigation so we called them up. They were super responsive and amazingly enough, I didn’t have to wait long for an appointment — just a day.
They were on-​time, diagnosed the problem quickly and walked my husband and I through the fix. They were upfront on the costs as well — we needed a new timer. Their price was high and we could have gotten a cheaper one at Home Depot but we didn’t want to have to wait for a fix. So we said okay (they charge $ 108/​hr) and they replaced the timer and fixed leaking sprinklers in about an hour. The total amount was exactly what they had originally thought.
I really liked how upfront, honest, and courteous they were. Would recommend.

This review is long overdue! We needed to replace our above ground sprinkler system with drip. Sounds easy, but after interviewing 3 other gardeners/​irrigation «experts» it seemed like a very big and complex job for our yard. Until Nate — he was extremely knowledgable, came up with solutions other folks missed, and was thoughtful, professional and a pleasure to work with. Their prices were middle of the road compared to the other estimates, but the quality of the work and the expertise were head and shoulders above the rest!
The job was scheduled, and the crew completed it within 2 days of working full days. The crew was EXCELLENT — again very knowledgeable, thoughtful and experienced. Had been working for the company for 10+ years!
Nate then scheduled another walk-​through a week or so after the work was completed, where he made sure everything was done correctly, adjusted our sprinkler timer, and explained in detail everything that was done, how to best take care of it, etc.
Truly excellent customer service, excellent work, great professionalism. Cant say enough great things! The only con — in they summer months they can get very busy and need to schedule several weeks out. So if you can, get your sprinkler work done during the low season in Nov-​Feb! They usually offer specials during that time!
It’s been about 5 months and our sprinklers are working perfectly, and we are saving close to $ 60/​month in water costs! What’s not to love?!

I had to wait about a week for an appointment, but it was worth it. Our system is about 12 years old. One recent water bill showed us using 2100 cf of water in a month! Carlos came and diagnosed our excessive sprinkler usage as cycling of the controller: it was running four times in a row. He confirmed my drip lines were all getting water pressure (no leaks) and installed new sprayers into two flower beds that were being under-​watered. Altogether it took an hour and will be paid for by one month of savings on the water bill. These are my new go-​to guys for the sprinkler system.

I had a big problem with my sprinklers my gardener said the valves needed to be replaced, when he installed them I could hear water running and the sprinklers would not come on. He said I needed a plumber, looked on Unilocal for help and called Peninsula irrigation. They were booked until July but some one canceled. They came out and said one valve is not needed. Only needed one valve I thought I had a big water leak, Thanks to there workers they saved me big bucks! thanks Peninsula Irrigation

Can’t fault this company or the tech (Carlos) who came to do the work. They’re honest, fast, & well organized, from the booking folks to the actual worker.

We needed our 12±year old residential irrigation system evaluated and repaired. Sprinkler heads were missing and misaligned, and our lawn and plantings were showing it! Impressed with Peninsula Irrigation’s Unilocal rating, we called them to do the work and it was great and fairly priced.
In less than two hours, Robert evaluated the system, found and fixed a valve leak, repaired and aligned the sprinkler heads, and discovered that one zone wasn’t watering properly because of too-​narrow piping coming into the irrigation system. His recommended fix was so much cheaper than re-​piping: install lower flow heads in the weak watering zone. Unf. he didn’t have them on the truck but the Company arranged for another visit two days later.
Josh, an equally expert tech, installed the low-​flow heads quickly and again ensured that all the zones were working. We now have the lawn, plants and trees watered, rather than the sidewalk and our porch!
Our only regret was that we didn’t know of Peninsula Irrigation when we first installed our system. This business deserves all the 5-​star ratings given.

This company does great work. I had to run a separate water line from the front of my home all the way to the opposite back corner of my house to hook up to my sprinkler system. It was very clearly outlined to me the work required and what they would do. They were on time and completed the work as to spec. Everything was cleaned up and looked brand new. It works perfectly. Their pricing is a little on the high end but you can rest assured that you will have zero problems and that that the work will be completed right the first time. I highly recommend them and I will use them next time for my other sprinkler repairs.

Used this company to repair some leaky & broken sprinkler heads. Showed up on time and fixed everything that I needed fixed, even things I didn’t realize. He also helped me reprogram my watering system so I will waste less water.
It took a while for the bill to arrive about the time I was wondering, did I miss getting an invoice? I will definitely use them again.

How in the hell does this company not have any reviews? They are just amazing!
As I write this review, I am listening to the wonderful sound of my sprinklers watering my lawn. Who knew that sound would make my heart beat so happily?
Here is my tale of woe and happiness:
We received a letter from our water dept informing us that they believed we had a leak, 2 weeks later our water bill came and it was a whopping $ 600.00! After walking around our property, my wonderful husband opened the lid to the Christy Box and saw that it was flooded. If you don’t know, a «Christy box» is a sunken container that is open on the bottom and has a removable cover on top. You probably have one or two in the front yard of your house where the sewer connection is or the water meter.
I called 1 Gardener company and 1 Landscaping company. Both companies said that I needed to replace the above ground water pipe and the underground PVC piping located in the Christy Box. Also said I needed a new timer because the sprinklers in my front yard weren’t working anymore. The quotes from both companies ranged from $ 600.00 to $ 1,300.00 for 5 hours and 3 guys to fix everything.
I called Peninsula Irrigation based on a recommendation. I searched for them (and any reviews) on Unilocal and was a bit disheartened when I saw there were no reviews listed. I took a leap of faith, called them anyway and arranged for them to meet me at my home.
I was given a 30 minute window in which they would show up. Robert and Carlos showed up in that 30 minute window.
45 minutes and $ 120.00 later everything was fixed! Robert and Carlos pumped the water out of the Christy Box. It turned out we didn’t need new pipes after all, the current pipes were fine, just certain sections needed to be tightened. Then they went over to the water meter and confirmed the leak had stopped. Robert was kind enough to teach me how to read water meters and taught me to look at the white triangle thats in the middle of the meter which will show you if you have a leak or not.
Next, they found the reason why the front lawns weren’t being watered. Had nothing to do with the timer, the real culprit was the wire cap that was originally used to connect the sprinkler wires. The original Gardener/​Landscaper who installed the irrigation system 3 years ago did not use a waterproof wire cap (doh!) and the wires had gotten wet which caused the wires to short. Robert and Carlos replaced the wire cap with a waterproof wire cap and Voila! the sprinklers in my front yard was working again. Wow! Just Wow!
I *highly* recommend Peninsula Irrigation. They saved my husband and I a lot of money, a lot of stress and a lot of time. They exceeded my expectations and I am honored to give them their first review.
Bottom Line: I will recommend Peninsula Irrigation to anyone who needs their sprinkler system repaired or installed. I may even hire them to be our permanent gardeners.
