CAUTION....I DO NOT RECOMMEND HIM
Here's why:&
Lousy work ethics
He is unreliable, it's hard to pin him down when he will come to do maintenance, repairs, etc. If he says he will be out there at 2 pm expect him perhaps at 5:00 or maybe the next day!
He tends to cut corners when installing a new irrigation system.
He treats his employees like slaves
If you are considering re-doing your irrigation system I caution you before you commit to using him.
Ask him for a written diagram of what he is going to do, where he is going to place the sprinklers & bubblers & make sure he puts in sufficient sprinkler heads to fully cover your lot. He likes to cut corners.
Get a written quote with all the information listed above.
Tell him you expect him to be here on a regular basis supervising the work throughout each day.
Tell him to make sure they do a good job of cleanup including removal of some of the tubing so it is not a hazard (they tend to leave it sticking out so someone can trip over it) & properly disposal of it & not just throw it in the lot next door.
Luciano charges $50 just to come out for maintenance & repair of your irrigation system. He pays his employees (who are undocumented, unskilled & just follow orders) slave wages, works them 10/hr days & just dumps them off, doesn't come to check on their work & doesn't even leave them with any water & sometimes doesn't come to pick them up until after dark. They told me they work for him because they have no skills & that nobody else will hire them so they have to work for him.
It cost us a little over half of what we paid him to fix his lousy job & the things he cut corners on such as not enough sprinkler heads or wrong placement to cover the yard.
Save yourself the aggravation & use someone else who is professional & has good work ethics!
