WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE VANDERWIST

How can I be sure Vanderwist will be around after the job is finished?
VANDERWIST IS COMMITTED TO THIS INDUSTRY! Please stop in and visit us. We are proud of what we have invested in our business and customers.

Do I have to worry about Vanderwist leaving material and trash on my property?
We get compliments, not complaints on our clean up.

Communication is a big issue; can I expect my calls for service to be returned in a timely fashion?
We have full time office, technical, and installation staff to assist you all year long. Our office staff hours are from 7:30a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Our installation and service crews enjoy many hours of overtime during the peak season and work on Saturdays for your convenience.

Can I trust Vanderwist to handle mistakes in an efficient manner?
We take responsibility for our mistakes and correct them to your satisfaction.

Your bid was not the lowest one I received, why should I select Vanderwist?
We do not design to be the lowest bid. We engineer our systems to provide an even precipitation rate, respecting exposures, and controlling overspray. Our customers have all the costs up front. There are no hidden charges or costly ‘add-ons’ once the project has been initiated. In addition, we only utilize top of the line commercial grade products to ensure our customer receives lasting beauty, function, durability, and effectiveness with each item selected.

Your bid had 25% more heads compared to all other bids I received, why?
Our systems are designed to provide optimal coverage. Systems are engineered to assure proper distribution of water when we are finished. Head and valve locations are installed with design and aesthetics in mind. We often have more heads, valves, and a larger expandable controller which are necessary to provide proper control, separate watering areas and coverage which aids in achieving an efficient system design.

Most Irrigation Companies have to order parts, does Vanderwist?
We stock a large inventory of parts to prevent shortages on the job and breaks in service. We also offer our customer’s parts for replacement needs at competitive prices.

I called a Lighting Contractor and received a voicemail to call back in the Spring. Can I expect the same type of message when calling Vanderwist?
Never. Vanderwist employs a full time office staff year round during regular office hours, Monday through Friday 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Trained installers and technicians are also available year round for your service and installation needs.
