Longstanding customers return to Holmes and Sons Irrigation for new installations as well as seasonal upkeep. In a May 2026 Google review, Bob and Mary describe using the company for 15 years at their Sandwich property before hiring Matt, Ronnie and the crew to install an irrigation system at their newly built retirement home in Barnstable. They praise the crew’s coordination with other contractors and the finished system. The Mashpee business says it has been family owned and operated since 1970. Its website names Ron Holmes, Jr. and Matthew Holmes as contacts and describes installation, maintenance and repair of underground lawn sprinkler systems for residential and commercial customers across Cape Cod and the South Shore. One customer writing in April 2026 says the company originally installed their irrigation system when they added onto their house about nine years earlier. They describe dependable routine maintenance since then and accommodation for maintenance and last-minute blowouts without extra charges. Diane, writing from Mashpee after about 15 years as a customer, praises Matt and his crew for prompt responses when problems need fixing. Another April reviewer describes annual blowouts and turn-ons, phone calls that clearly communicate arrival times, visits as promised and a property left spotless. Google reports a 4.3-star average from 16 ratings. Older complaints concern conduct and communication. In a November 2021 review, a customer describes insufficient notice before house visits, rudeness and billing that was not monthly. A July 2022 reviewer says a worker in a company truck drove aggressively behind them and made rude comments.
Best Irrigation company on Cape Cod!! It doesn’t get better!
We've been using Holmes Irrigation for the past 15 years at our Sandwich property with complete satisfaction, so it was a no-brainer that we'd use them again for the installation of a modern, eco-friendly system at our newly built retirement home in Barnstable. Matt, Ronnie and their entire crew are total professionals, worked seamlessly with other contractors and basically did everything possible to make us 100% happy with our state-of-the art irrigation system. Nice to see that customer service and pride-in-workmanship still exist! Bob and Mary
Great company! Easy to communicate. Friendly and professional.
I have had Holmes and Sons Irrigation for about 15 years now. Matt and his crew are great guys. They are very professional, but also extremely pleasant! Whenever I have had any issues they are extremely prompt about coming out to fix it. I would absolutely recommend Holmes and Sons Irrigation! Diane (Mashpee)
I’ve been using Holmes Irrigation for about 9 years now, and I can’t say enough good things about them. They originally installed my irrigation system when I added onto my house, and the entire process was smooth, professional, and done right the first time. Since then, I’ve relied on them for all my routine maintenance, and they’ve been incredibly consistent and dependable. What really sets them apart is their customer service—they’ve gone out of their way more than once to squeeze me into their schedule for maintenance or last-minute blowouts, and they’ve never hit me with extra charges or made it a hassle. Highly recommend.
