What recent reviews say

Most reviewers praise the professionalism and technical skill of IWS crews on rainwater harvesting and drainage work, with fair pricing and thorough installation. However, a recurring pattern emerges: once projects are complete or issues arise, communication breaks down, with customers reporting months of ignored emails and unreturned calls seeking help with drainage failures or installation mistakes.

Recent shift: Pattern of communication issues has persisted over several years (complaints span from 5 years ago to 2 months ago), though most recent high-star reviews (within a year) mention positive crew experiences and one long-term customer reports owner remains responsive.

Praised for
  • professional crew and hard workers
  • knowledgeable about rainwater and drainage
  • reasonable pricing
  • responsive owner (Gabe)
Watch-outs
  • poor follow-up after project issues
  • slow scheduling and long wait times
  • incorrect installation details
  • unresponsive to customer emails and calls
skilled-crewresponsivefair-pricingpoor-communicationreliableon-budget
Best for: Homeowners needing rainwater harvesting system design and installation, or those addressing drainage problems.
Think twice if: You need quick follow-up on post-installation issues; several reviewers waited months without responses after projects were complete.

Strengths

  • rainwater harvesting expertise and ASSE certification
  • full-service approach (handles tree clearing, electrical, permits)
  • knowledgeable field crews

Worth knowing

  • Named crew members praised for skill and work ethic: Daniel (crew chief), Steven, Ruben Sr., Ruben Jr., Luke, Corey, Cameron, Travis, Alberto
  • 32,000-gallon rainwater systems installed
  • Gabe is the owner and often responds directly to long-term customers
  • Projects include tree clearing and electrical work on-site to avoid multiple contractors

Common questions

Does IWS handle the whole rainwater system installation or do I need other contractors?
They handle the full scope, including tree clearing, electrical work, and system assembly, so you typically won't need multiple companies.
What happens if something goes wrong after installation?
Reviewers report the company is difficult to reach after project completion; one long-term customer (9 years) says owner Gabe responds within 24 hours, but others waited months for replies on drainage failures.

Top Choice mowing crews show up on time, cut clean lines, and finish fast. Reviewers consistently praise the office for quick scheduling, text updates, and straightforward estimates-especially when other companies ghosted them. Named crew members like Mike, Alejandro, and Johnny tackle everything from basic mowing to irrigation repairs with skill and honesty, often going a second pass to get edges perfect. Prices sit fairly in line with local competitors, and the company's responsive communication (sometimes even from leadership) keeps customers coming back for years.
