| Thank you for
visiting the North Star web site. I believe you will
find some interesting and useful information
designed to help you manage your irrigation with the
goal of healthier and stronger turf. The tips and
information offered here have been gleaned from my
own experience and those of other professionals in
the irrigation and turf management fields.
I began a lawn care
business in 1990 after twenty- four years in the
U.S. Air Force. This family business started with my
son and daughter; i.e., they chased the lawn mowers!
Over the next few years we gradually added the
sprinkler service to the business. Eventually this
clientele was large enough to warrant complete
concentration on lawn sprinkler services, which I
realized was my real interest. After selling the
lawn care business, North Star Sprinklers, Inc. was
launched in 1994 and we incorporated in 1998.
North Star Sprinklers, Inc. has three full time
employees and a complement of part time help as
projects require. I have purposefully kept the
company small so that I can personally train
employees. Our small company status also allows me
to keep a critical eye on quality control. |

Having said this,
what does North Star Sprinklers, Inc., stand for? It
would be dishonest to say that I am not in the
business to make money. But within this context, I
have a certain value system from which I operate:
1) Honesty and
integrity.
I will always give you my honest opinion. If I make
an error, I will own up to it and do everything I
can to make it right. My word is my bond. While some
may view this as a worn out cliché, it is the basis
of my professional and personal life.
2) Fiscal
responsibility.
I spend your money as if it were my own. If I would
not do something for myself, I will not recommend it
to you.
3) Quality
products.
I use only proven products. For installations, this
usually involves mixing brand names within a system.
4) Quality work.
I demand quality from myself and my employees. The
goal is to do it right the first time.
Thanks again for
visiting our web site. I hope you find it
informative and helpful. Please feel free to send me
suggestions or comments. I would really like to know
what you think of the site.

"As first time homeowners, the crew from NorthStar
pointed us in the right direction, and installed a
spectacular sprinkler system, for a more than fair
price. They took the time with us we needed to
design the system and have it done right the first
time, with no hassle. Their work is quick and
flawless, and they provided us with a worry-free
lawn. Their customer service and quality work is by
far the best in the valley."
