Certification
Always confirm your contractors credentials!
You would not hire an engineer, an electrician, a plumber that was not licensed or endorsed...
so why would you hire someone to install or maintain your irrigation system who is not certified?
Unlike other New England states -Massachusetts does NOT license irrigation contractors- this makes choosing a qualified and competent irrigation specialist a difficult process.
EPA WaterSense is a volunteer partnership program of the Environmental Protection Agency.
It's partners seek to protect the future of our nation's water supply by offering consumers a simple way to use less water with water-efficient products and services.
Irrigation Association, Certified Irrigation Contractor (IA CIC) is the first and only nationally accredited program in the industry. It's a certification that The EPA and consumers can rely on.
Not all certifications are equal! IA Certification is a valuable tool when evaluating the skills of the person you hire. The IA CIC program helps homeowners and businesses identify irrigation specialists who have experience, training, passed a comprehensive exam, and follow a code of ethics to install, repair and maintain irrigation systems.
