About the Company: After 38 years of irrigation contracting, Irrigation Services still has the same commitment to quality work that we had on day one. Each time we sign a contract with a new customer we make every effort to see them completely satisfied with their new system, whatever it takes! Irrigation Services is leading the way with the installation of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) in the Mid-Atlantic states. This alternative is perfect for our customers with difficult soil or corrosion problems. With the price of HDPE nearly the same as PVC this option should be considered for every new system. |
