All reviews for Salinas & Sons

I had Salinas and Sons install a sprinkler system for my home about 3 years ago. The installation was perfect. The way they use their trenching equipment leaves little to no evidence they moved the ground around at all. The system was carefully thought out and planned for my lot, especially for drainage and runoff. I also purchased the Rachio 3 controller and its brilliant. It surveys the weather information and adjusts watering schedules which saves on your water bill. The Rachio is fully programmable, which I have customized to conform to my township watering rules. Fabian and his father are knowledgeable, professional and have supported my installation well. They're excellent... ***** !

Salinas and Sons installed a new sprinkler system in our yard. I called them on a monday and they were putting in the sprinklers in under a week! They obtained the permits from the city and took care of all the details. Very professional, courteous and did a fantastic job. Our yard has never looked so green!
They were very detail-oriented and asked if we had plans to place patio/other structures in the yard in the future and mapped out the irrigation lines accordingly.
Highly recommend!

This is a multi-generation family company with integrity. They did a great job designing and implementing our corner lot sprinkler system. We needed a pressure-boosting pump. They also installed a high-tech controller that links with local weather reporting stations. After installation, they quickly came out to make adjustments to assure perfect coverage and operation. They also handled the permitting and approval process which is pretty challenging here in Evanston. We had multiple bids and they were also the most economical. We highly recommend this fine company.

Following some home construction, we hired Salinas and Sons to install a system. They provided a quality system at a reasonable price. They have provided excellent service since with spring and fall maintenance checks and connection of the system. They have been very responsive to any questions.

I highly recommend Salinas and Sons Irrigation. Our sprinkler system was 13 years old and needed help! They repaired, replaced, and updated the system and now it runs terrific! They are reliable and outstanding. I won’t trust anyone else with our sprinkler system. And their follow up is amazing. Jacky will help you in any way she can when you call or email her. Great job! Great company!! Great people!!!

We have used Salinas and Sons for 7 years. They are very thorough, they replaced sprinkler heads this year that were broken the same day and explained everything they were doing and why. They remind us of their visit to turn our sprinkler system on in the Spring and off for the Winter. They are family owned, friendly and very punctual.

I switched to Salinas and Sons after two of my neighbors recommended them. I was pleasantly surprised at how responsive they were to my call, how reasonable their prices were, and how they personally took the time to study my entire sprinker layout to improve the watering of shrubs and lawn areas, with minimum additional cost. Fabian even reset my sprinker control dial, and told me I don't need a new one. I am glad my neighbors recommended them. Carol D., Lisle IL

When we were first considering installing a sprinkler system in 2015 we reached out to several local companies for estimates. Salinas and Sons provided a very reasonable estimate, and we have been extremely happy with them ever since. Fabian and crew have always been responsive, professional, and friendly, and we would highly recommend them to anyone considering installation or maintenance of an irrigation system.

Two years ago I hired Salinas and Sons to install an underground lawn sprinkler system at my home. I chose them because they were very responsive and accommodating, as well as very competitively priced. They did a very good job and as I've added a lot of shrubs and flowers over the last two years, they continue to come out and tweek their work as needed. For the first year it was free of charge. In year two there were some free calls and some very reasonably priced ones, depending on what was required. From moving heads, to adding heads, etc., they've been great.

They come out very promptly when called, are always pleasant to deal with and as fair as could be.

Thank you Jackie, Fabian and all the crew!

I WISH EVERY SERVICE COMPANY HAD AS MUCH INTEGRITY AND FOCUS ON THE CUSTOMER FIRST!

We have been using Salinas and Sons for several years now to service our sprinkler system. They are always courteous and very professional. They always show up on time and get the job done quickly. I would highly recommend them.

Salinas & Sons did an absolutely fantastic job installing the sprinkler system. What a great experience from the first time that I met with Fabian for the initial bid, to meeting his dad running the installation crew, and to conversing with his sister who runs the office and sets up the install date. Great family operated business. They installed the system in one day. The plumber came the next morning and hooked up the water supply. Immediately after the plumber was finished, the system was turned on and the crew checked every head, one final time, to make sure that all was operating correctly. They took their time and explained the system control box to me and how to operate it. You would have never known that they were here as they completely cleaned up after themselves. Nothing was left behind except the beautiful system that they installed! Great job! Greater people!!

The house I bought came with a sprinkler system, and I knew nothing about them. When I got no response from the company the previous owners had worked with, I contacted Salinas & Sons based on reviews. They patiently answered all my questions and explained everything I needed to know. When they came out, they tested everything, made a few repairs and answered more questions. They were great to work with, and I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend them!

Fantastic sprinkler service in the Aurora & Naperville area. The company that we used to use was absolutely terrible (sprinklers never went on last year because they could never make a time-slot to come turn it on!), and we were looking to switch and fell upon Salinas & Sons after a google search. Appointment setup was done over email. Technician came in right on time, and basically did everything in a jiffy. He even found some sprinkler heads to be broken and patched those up as well. Glad to have the system up and running again - will continue to use S&S as my sprinkler servicer.

Salinas & Sons you can't get any better than them professional courteous and hard workers.The crew left my house and you wouldn't even know that they were at my house installing a sprinkler sys that's how good they are.The owner is a great guy and looking out for his customers. I rate them #1 in my book.Thanks for a great job.

Salinas & Sons has provided excellent customer service for both sprinkler maintenance and required repairs. Their team efficiently checked that the system was working and proactively made minor adjustments that would provide optimal water. Additionally, they cleaned up after minor repairs so it looked like they never dug at all. Unlike other irrigation companies, they did not push unnecessary or costly changes.

Plan to continue using their professional services in years to come

Salinas & Sons has been maintaining my sprinkler system for five years now, and I can't think of a better company to work with. They are always friendly, courteous, and prompt. When I have a crazy schedule, they are more than willing to work with me to get my sprinklers in working order again. I highly recommend them to maintain and service your irrigation system.

We have worked with Salinas & Sons for over four years now and I can't think of another service provider in any category that is better at what they do than Salinas & Sons. They are incredibly responsive when you contact them and also proactive in reaching out when routine annual events like backflow testing are necessary. Their pricing is competitive, they're honest and hard-working, and like the other reviewers have noted, they're just good people; incredibly nice and friendly. Highly recommended!

The entire Salinas Team was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Our system was installed this week and I could not be more satisfied not only with the product and how it is working, but the professionalism and level of detail demonstrated by the crew. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a sprinkler system.

We were looking to try a new sprinkler company and liked what we saw in terms of reviews for Salinas & Sons. They were incredibly responsive and able to come by in short notice before our landscapers were scheduled. Their pricing seemed fair and they didn’t try and talk me into anything I didn’t need. Lastly ... and this doesn’t seem like a big thing, though it is ... they were very friendly. In my experience, a nice disposition generally results in good work. We’ll use them again next season, for sure.

Very attentive and accommodating. On time and ready to work. Field techs are knowledgeable and experienced. Prices are competitive. Highly recommend them. Tito does a great job!

I am very pleased with the service and performance of Salinas & Sons.
Fabian and his team are good listeners and do the job I want done in a timely manner. There are no Upsells.

They arrive on time and do and use their (and my) time efficiently.
And there's no 3-5 hour wait window like other service trades.
Our appointment stands. And they show up.
I have never had to call them back to re-do a job.

They are a family company run on integrity and a good work ethic.
