Technicians were very polite and nice unfortunately what they said they did and what was on the the invoice was slightly different. The Owner Mike extremely rude, poor customer service skills, a call that was meant to understand the charges on the invoice turned into being told your cheap and did you expect the service for free. No we didnt but we expected to be charged for what we were informed was done so there wouldnt be any surprise charges. The way this owner interacted and continued to be rude and disrespectful towards concerns would not recommend, too many other companies to

Autowater recently installed an irrigation system at our home. Our experience with the company personnel from the owner (Geoff), sales rep (Chris), installation foreman (Jorge) and the installation crew was excellent from start to finish. They made a complicated job go smoothly and upon completion, it was almost as though they had never been here.

Geoff and his crew did a fantastic job installing our new sprinkler system in our large, mature yard with numerous flower beds, rose gardens and moss garden. From the beginning, the Autowater Team showed a strong desire to install a system that met our needs in a smart manner that ensured we would not be wasting water. They put a great deal of thought into the best way to structure and layout our system. Our yard presented a number of challenges, but the team showed strong persistence - we have a large driveway with an extra deep footing that was a challenge to get under, but with a great deal

Great company - used them through my landscapers to complete the install of our new irrigation system and the team was professional and informative! Most importantly, they were fast at the install and walked me through the process. System was installed at the end of 2020, excited to see how it works this Spring and Summer once turned on.

Just had a fantastic experience. Autowater installed and has been servicing our system for a few years. This year due to the stay at home order I wanted to do it remotely. They gave me a call and walked me through the whole thing. They made it super simple and were so nice about it. It was fantastic and showed me they are building long term relationships. Fantastic company and service. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend Autowater Irrigation. They just finished the installation of a 4-zone drip hose system with a wireless connector, that includes 4 raised beds. I could not been happier with the job they have done. At the beginning Geoff (the owner of this family business in the second generation) came out to take detailed pictures and delivered a detailed and very competitive quote within days.
A few days after I signed the contract the outside plumbing was scheduled and finished in a day. On the day of the installation (also done within a day) Geoff again explained the entire process for the
