Prescription was established in 1980 as a two-man team running out of a garage and has since expanded to a four-branch operation with locations in St. Paul, Crystal, Shakopee, and St. Cloud. Clearwater's new base camp will be at the Shakopee location. The technicians you have grown to know and trust have joined Prescription, and I am pleased to let you know that I am stepping into my new role as a consultant to the irrigation team at Prescription.I will be spending less time in the field but more time helping to grow our business and providing you with some new services like tree health care, fertilization, and weed control.
The backflow preventer is the plumbing device attached to the outside of your house. It is the source of water to the irrigation system. Because this unit and the copper piping attached to it are exposed to the outside air, this unit can freeze and burst in only a few hours of below freezing temperatures.
Installing an automatic irrigation system will ensure your yard will always look its best. Showing off dense, green grass watered automatically, even when you're away from home. Clearwater Irrigation specializes in residential design, installation and maintenance of water-saving irrigation systems that protect your landscape investment.
Are you ready to control your home irrigation system from anywhere in the world? The Rain Bird ESP-TM2 Wi-Fi compatible controller is the ideal option for all your residential irrigation needs. No more returning home to an overwatered lawn because you'd forgotten to adjust its settings before leaving on vacation.

The drought this summer killed much of my lawn so I started looking for a reputable irrigation company to install a lawn irrigation company. I sent a request for info out to several vendors and Steve responded promptly and was able to squeeze me into his schedule at short notice. He thoroughly explained what they could provide and coordinated the installation with his crew.

On the scheduled installation day they arrived early and had the system up and running by the afternoon. Very professional and courteous! I'm also quite pleased with the Rain Bird controller they installed. Job well done.

Great company - easy to work with and very responsive when we had a few broken heads.

I used Clearwater Irrigation years ago and had a positive experience. Unfortunately this time, while my call was responded to quickly and the onsite tech was amazing, my issue came when I received my bill. I understand paying a flat rate for the visit and any repairs, what frustrated me was the lack of transparency when I asked the cost for the trip.

There was an extra $55 fee added on my invoice. When I questioned it, the response was "There is a service charge on every invoice. It pays for the drive to and from your home as well as gas, auto insurance, business insurance, maintenance, office expenses, envelopes, stamps etc." So instead of a $90 trip the base is $145. We will not be using them in the future.

Horrible experience both times I interacted with Steve, the owner, who usually organizes visits to the property. The first time, after giving a time window, say 10am-Noon, I was shopping at 9:15am and got a call from him wondering why I wasn't home. Long story short he was really rude and finished our conversation with, "I was told to never tell people sorry for being early." Next visit, they were moving a sprinkler head into my property as they placed it 2 feet into my neighbors yard.

After his staff acting as this was a major issues and they were going to fix their mistake ASAP, I got a bill from them. Not once was their any mention that there would have to be any compensation from me. They installed the system for the previous owner of this home but they will never be used again. Not only are they more expensive than other companies, but they like to sneak in extra expenses without being upfront about them. They may do good work in the yard, but be careful because from the top, they are rude and out for your money.

Steve and his crew of guys are the best in this business that I've ever experienced. Their initial quote for a complete system came in less than anyone else and I was skeptical. The final price came in exactly as estimated and on time. The best part? After they were done pulling in all the pipe and installing the heads, you couldn't even tell they had been there.

They took perfect care not to disturb any more than they had to. I've had them back twice on very short notice to move heads or install others when changing landscaping and they're on the spot when you need them bending over backwards to help. Can't say enough about their super service!

We had Clearwater Irrigation install our system last June. They were very professional and addressed all of our questions and concerns. I would highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for, reasonable rates, professional installation and answers from the guys who know the business and do a great job!

We had Steve from Clearwater irrigation install our irrigation system in our new home in Golden Valley. His crew did an excellent job. They were very quick, were professional and were in and out in one day. We opted for a special water controller which is totally connected to our phone so we can control it from anywhere. The controller is connected to wifi and the weather channel so if rain is on the way - it won't run and wast your water. Steve also did our first blowout of the system this fall and that was great too.

Had nothing but problems with these guys. One thing after another went wrong. I regret not choosing a different company.

This is the company that should be handling your irrigation. I have a system that they did not install and yet when I called them they walked us through how to trouble shoot our system to resolve our issue of 1 zone that would not come on. I fully expected them to come out and to have the repairs cost me money, but we were able to resolve it over the phone and we are so grateful for Steve's help. Clearwater Irrigation will be our go-to company from now on and I will be recommending them to anyone who will listen to me! Thank you so much!
