  I inherited Barr from the previous homeowner. When the irrigation system was opened they made sure there was water flowing and that was about it. Heads were problematic, aimed wrong, leaking. Later the system shorted out and I had to call them back 3 times to get it right. Then later a valve sprung a leak and was continuously running. My technician was nice but he can barely sit or kneel and this compromises his work. I had multiple bare areas in my lawn, two large ones were for a swing set that was removed. Barr agreed to seed the areas. They did this one week AFTER they applied pre-emergent to my lawn, so none of it grew. I found this out later when I hired another company late in the year to resurrect my failing lawn. I asked Barr to reimburse me for the seed application/labor charges and they refused. They offered to do it again, but I had different companies come and solve these problems for me as I had lost faith in this one. Buyer beware. Also, irrigation technicians are not plumbers and can’t do your backflow testing so you have to have an additional plumber come out and charge you for that service as well. I don’t usually post reviews, but when they refused to reimburse for the grass that wouldn’t grow because of the chemicals they applied themselves the week prior, I was motivated enough.

  This is a very unprofessional and unethical company. They damaged my property and in turn refused to help/compensate. They are very unprofessional and unethical in their dealing. I would have given negative stars if I could. I absolutely would caution everyone to stay away from them.

  Exceptional professionalism with attention to detail - these folks respond diligently & are highly capable. I am new to this area and had no idea which lawn care service would deliver the best results. I chose to work with a local family owned service as I prefer to support local business owners & entrepreneurs. My yard was in sad shape as we had just purchased a home in Germantown Hills that needed much love & care - it now looks like a golf-course. Highly recommended!
