Fling Irrigation

We have used Fling Irrigation on and off for the past 15 years. We had a leak we were unable to detect. Contacted them to come and find the leak and repair it. 2 men came out to the house walked up and down the drive way 2 times, gave us some flags and said when we find the leak to mark it with a flag. Well if I knew where the leak was I would have not needed to call them to find it. They did not dig anywhere or even bend down to touch dirt. After that I received a bill for $170. I called the owner after receiving the bill and he was very rude on the phone. I am not looking to get work done for free, but there was NO work done. These guys did NOTHING! We will not be using this company again.

WORK WITHOUT APPROVAL, POOR QUALITY OF WORK, OVER CHARGING AND POOR COMMUNICATION: Worst experience ever and I've lived in York County for over 30 years We have used Fling from time to time since 1999. On the first day they worked in our yard summer 2016, work was performed without our approval which we were billed for, and they did not return when I asked them to, for further explanation of what was done and why. Several weeks later, after returning home from vacation, we noticed that the plants in our front yard were almost dead, only to find that the original problem was still not fixed. We needed a single zone valve repaired (ultimately turned out to be an electrical short in the valve wiring). They returned only to continue to create more problems with the rest of the zones. They were totally unable to diagnose the problem or locate the valve, and ran up a huge bill attempting to fix other (normally operating) valves, before finally admitting to us that "it would help if we could see your original diagrams," which were provided. Eventually the broken zone was fixed after drilling under our brick walkway, digging up flower beds and generally making a mess of our yard. The first bill was $490.75 which was paid. The second bill was $2,175.00. Throughout the process no estimate was given, but based on previous sprinkler repairs done in our yard, we were not prepared for a total cost of this magnitude. Previous valve repairs done by Fling and by other vendors had cost $300 or less. The owner did offer to reduce the second bill by half, however we continue to believe that he has overcharged us. He blames the issues with our repairs on "misleading diagnostics". He also has threatened us with magistrates court. To prevent going to court, we paid the second bill of $1087.50, so our total out of pocket cost at this time is $1578.25 which we feel is unreasonable.
