What the scorecard measures

Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated each company, compared with the others listed here. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from a few dozen people counts for less than a 4.8 from hundreds. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews.

What drives sprinkler service costs in Salt Lake City

No prices are published here. Sprinkler bills depend on whether the visit is a seasonal turn-on or blowout, a repair, a backflow or water line job, or a new installation with zones and a drip line. Parts, trenching and access matter too. One reviewer said parts were priced about like a big-box store, and Akimoto offers a free estimate from a texted photo, so ask each company how it quotes before work starts.
