After our home inspector discovered several signs of ongoing foundation bulging, my wife and I…read morerealized that we had major drainage issues and with some research realized we would need a French drain. I compiled several quotes from people we had already worked with, but I found American Irrigation's website online and was impressed by the photos of their previous jobs. What really struck me about Kingsley in our first conversation was his direct communication and friendliness. He owns American Irrigation & Landscaping but takes the time to call potential clients personally and we enjoyed some small talk before scheduling a visit to our property, which he also did in person. On his visit I was impressed with Kingsley's knowledge and experience. It just so happened that our foundation specialist (who also immediately recommended a French drain) was visiting at the same time as Kingsley, and since Kingsley has more than 30 years of experience, they actually had a laugh over discovering a mutual friend. Kingsley is proudly self-educated, but knows more than any other specialist we met with. I won't spoil it publicly, but there are a lot of things that can go wrong with a French drain if you don't think about how deep to put it, or how to orient the pipe perforations or keep from filling it up with sediment, and he's glad to go through all those details with you. You will come away with a very strong sense that there is a right way and a wrong way to install drainage and he will take pains to do the job right come hell or high water. American Irrigation was the only one of our quotes to plan to route our drainage from the side of the house through the back yard directly to the road side drains, despite it being substantially more work. Even though they offered a more quality service (including a 3 yr warranty!), their quote came out in the middle of the pack, and they also very kindly lumped some additional fence repairs in with the cost. When it came time to break ground, the American Irrigation crew was on time and fast, performed exactly the work we discussed beforehand in 3 days, and the payment was exactly what was quoted. I really feel that Kingsley and American Irrigation have saved us from big headaches in the future with our foundation bulging from rain by giving us a drainage solution that will work well, and do so for years to come. -Tim B.

Called 3 companies, didnt tell any of the companies what was recommended, after Kingsley looked at the property his thoughts exactly aligned with what the engineer recommended.

Kingsley had also answered all of our concerns throughout the process. I would highly recommend!

[] Irrigation Review Series [] Part 2 (of 3)…read more Jump to the summary at the bottom if you can't be bothered to read this essay. [] Background [] I had a fence contractor install a fence this past winter, and in the process of doing so, they hit one of the sprinkler water lines. They said that they fixed it, and in a way they did, but they kinda did a crap job of it. I only discovered that the fix didn't take after my sprinkler system was turned back on after the winter, and my lawn turned into a soupy bog (as well as getting hit with a ridiculous water bill in the process). So I needed to find a cost-effective solution to the problem. This is the second of three irrigation companies I dealt with to that end. [] Irrigation Company No. 2 [] After having Sooner Okie Irrigation fail to show up (twice), I decided it was time to move on to another irrigation company. So I went searching on Yelp and came across 405 Irrigation. The lady who spoke to me on the phone was friendly and helpful. She put me in contact with Steve, and who was equally friendly, and somehow even more helpful. I ended up having a long conversation on the phone with him and remembered thinking, "What a nice guy..." But he's more than nice. He's super knowledgeable. He was able to walk me through what he thought the issue was (he turned out to be right), and he also saved me money by preventing me from needlessly repairing a backflow preventer that wasn't broken (that I was told was broken by Sooner Okie). He also saved me from the hassle of trying to install an in-ground backflow preventer. Steve even said he wouldn't do it, because he didn't want to get fined for doing something he knew he shouldn't do (unlike the previous irrigation company that didn't tell me I wasn't allowed to do it, while also trying to overcharge me in the process). Couple of issues though. Well "issues" is maybe not the correct term, but these are the reasons why I ultimately did not use 405 Irrigation to fix the damaged water line: 1. Steve is busy. Like, several weeks out before you can get on his schedule, kind of busy. And good for him, I'm glad that such a knowledgeable and friendly dude has more business than he's able to manage by himself. This isn't a negative for him, but it was a negative for me in that I couldn't let my sprinkler system not be fixed for 4+ weeks, and have my lawn turn to a dried out husk in the process. Oklahoma summer don't curr if my sprinkler system is out, it'd have baked my lawn to the crispiest piece of toast, and I had to go looking for another irrigation company. 2. The main reason I had to knock one [*]: 405 Irrigation is slightly more expensive than other irrigation companies. And it's not because their prices are necessarily higher, but because there's a 2-hour-minimum attached to the work that Steve does. Which again, I get it, businesses gotta business. But I was also furloughed at the time, and whether Steve was a super nice dude or not, I had to make the difficult choice to go with someone cheaper. And I had even dug up the spot that had the leak, so the irrigation company that ended up fixing the leak did so in 55 minutes, and charged me for just that one hour of work. All that to say, a $100 saved is a $100 earned, nomsayin? If time or money is not an issue for you though, I would highly recommend 405 Irrigation. I still wish I could have used 405 Irrigation, because Steve saved me from a catastrophe (of the previous irrigation company's advice), and if I ever have irrigation work that requires more than 2+ hours of work, then 405 Irrigation is absolutely the first irrigation company I would call. [] Summary [] 405 Irrigation has all the competence, knowledge, and friendliness that one could hope for when interacting with a local irrigation company.
