Ray came out less than 24hrs after we called for help with our irrigation system. We recently had parts of the yard replaced with new grass and the installers did not find all of our sprinklers and some needed to be moved to better cover the yard. Ray came out the next morning and immediately fixed our problem. Thank you so much for your attention to this so that our new grass doesn’t die. I definitely recommend Ray’s service's.

Ray Arneson did a great job with my sprinkler repair. Initially he came to my home to replace a bad solenoid. Three weeks later I asked him to return to replace 5 pop-up rotating sprinklers and upgraded my RainBird controller in garage to the Rachio 3 controller which gives me more control over water usage with the Rachio app. Highly recommend Ray for your sprinkler repair needs, system upgrade, and long term maintenance.

Contacted Second Irrigation about my irrigation system. He responded quickly and was able to make an appointment in short order. He was able to repair the irrigation lines and my main water line that had been encapsulated and crushed by a giant tree root. His work was professional. We hired him to update our 20 year old irrigation system that had multiple manufacturers products and two decades of Frankenstein repairs.

The new irrigation controller, efficient sprinkler heads and layout, wireless controller, and new valve box were done in a day.

Ray is professional. He communicated every step of the way. He provided updates and pictures of the work as he progressed. He walked me through the new system and showed me how to operate the new controller. Highly recommend Second Irrigation for your irrigation needs!

Dont get SOAKED like we do! We have paid ray half a MILLION dollars since he started and hes destroyed our system and our budget.
Hes being paid $1K a month (for 4 years) to inspect and keep up with our system. He let everything deteriorate.
He ran our system every day for months and got us a wasting water citation from Code Enforcement.
Hes been in total control of everything since 2019. We did everything he said we need to do. Now he says our ‘whole systems been band-aid’ and he needs to replace everything. He doesnt have the ability to make the repairs, just to make excuses for his incompetance. Now they find out he was convicted of a felony for lying to the police.

Though I have an aversion to social media, I wanted to write this review so others can benefit from the excellent service provided by Ray and Second Irrigation and Lighting Services.

Ray was recommended to me by the manufacturer (Coastal Lighting) to repair my specialty landscape lights. Several companies had no experience with the product, but Ray’s knowledge base and workmanship were extremely impressive. Not only did he troubleshoot and repair the issues with my existing lights, but he provided valuable insights into how I could improve my entire landscape design. The final product looks fantastic!

Additionally, Ray is an expert in irrigation repairs and was also hired to repair my sprinkler system. Ray not only repaired the system, but meticulously restored my sod and landscape rocks while hiding every single wire from sight as if he was never here. That kind of attention to detail matters to me and can be so hard to find these days.

Ray is always courteous and demonstrates a true desire to provide the best possible customer experience. His degree of professionalism, coupled with his extensive knowledge, sets him apart from all the rest.

5+ STARS! Our original call was due to irrigation concerns with an area of our yard that was constantly soggy. Ray did an overview of our irrigation system since it had not been used in about 2 years, at least. In addition to the leak, he found several other poor “DIY solutions” from the previous owner. With that being said, Ray repaired/replaced necessary parts to get our system up and running correctly. Knowing our issues, he did not push unnecessary repairs on us, but did discuss the future needs of the system. We are thankful to come across Second Irrigation and Mr. Ray. We will definitely trust him for future issues with our system.

Ray is the ultimate professional! My pool patio lights were not working so I called him thinking he was the installer! He was not the installer and informed me that the system I had was proprietary and that he did not install it and could not work on it. He pulled out his voltmeter and traced my problem to a bad GFI outlet. His help didn't stop there, he made several calls to identify my system, so that I will be able to contact them in the future. Now to top it off he would not accept any payment even with the cost of gas now, believe me I tried. I live in Ruskin so the headache of driving here and back with traffic on I75 surely warranted a show up payment. I highly recommend Florida Coastal Outdoor Lighting and will use them in the future for any Outdoor lighting needs that come up. Thanks Ray you're appreciated.

I'm s single mom who is pretty lost when it comes to things like my irrigation system. Ray and Second Irrigation was recommended by a neighbor/friend. Ray responded to my call very quickly and was able to make time for me the very next day. When he arrived he was so kind and polite and he spent so much time ensuring everything was in working order, that my wacky watering schedule was fixed (which would result in me saving a ton of money on my water bill) and that I understood how it worked. He also told me about a few things that would ultimately need to be replaced but knew I still had a few good months until I needed the repairs. I just can't say enough about how excellent Ray was! I will never turn to any other company when it comes to my irrigation and lighting needs! It's nice to know there are still amazing people out there you can really trust and count on!
