Testimonials




"Have worked many years now with STI with both equipment and Irrigation at multiple facilities. The relationships that have been created and have grown with the entire team at STI have been essential for my career as well as many others. STI has been a big part of the success that many of my peers and I have enjoyed. STI has been in business for decades now because of their dedication to service, and I will continue to support them because of the support in which we all receive from them."

"STI has been the equipment and irrigation supplier for Bank of America stadium for over 20 years. The quality of the Toro equipment STI provides is unparalleled in the industry. We have always received prompt, excellent service from STI and their service department is the best in the industry. In short, STI has always provided us with outstanding service, irrigation and grounds equipment. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the green industry."

"Class A staff. Very knowledgeable and spent extra time walking through the best option for my chainsaw needs and stayed open late to get me all set up. This was my first visit today and definitely will not be my last. I actually came in to get one of my Sthil MS-170 saws looked at from the service guys. Turned out it was a little water in the fuel from condensation (saw has been stored in box in the back of my truck and its been 10 degrees to 70 degrees the last few months). Fresh fuel and a tweak with the screw driver and good as new! No charge for the fix. I was so impressed that I purchased a new MS-251C saw and extra bars and chains today for my other saws (460 Magnum, 461 Rescue, 025, 170, 171). I was going to wait until Stihl Days, but they treated me right from the service department. I set up my farm account and now they have a loyal customer for life!"

"I have worked with Smith Turf and Irrigation now for a number of years. They have supplied us with great customer service through all aspects of their operations. They are always very responsive and find answers to our questions within a timely manner. I would recommend STI to anyone with turf equipment needs."

Matthew Layne, UT Knoxville | Knoxville,TN



"I’ve been doing business with Smith Turf and Irrigation and Toro for over 30 years, using both their equipment and irrigation systems. When I think of STI & Toro, 4 things come to mind: Quality, Service, Professionalism and Stability. Quality products and people, Industry leading Service, the most Professional staff from top to bottom, and the stability to build relationships that last a career. I have had only 2 equipment salesmen and 3 irrigation reps in 30 years. STI isn’t a vendor, they’re a partner."

"I love this place for all my irrigation and lighting issues, they even gave me tons of info about changing over my yard from Fescue to Bermuda. They took the time to educate me on products and benefits when I needed a new back flow and even recommended a person to install it for me. They really know their stuff!

"While I am a huge Toro fan, I am an even bigger fan of the people I work with at Smith Turf; Matthew Gross, Steve Miller, Jay Johnson and Marty Bahen. There are many others at Smith Turf that make the company great, but I think it is important that I emphasize the impact these guys have made by being exceptional at their jobs.   Again, thank you and Smith Turf for being there for us. We look forward to a new shop filled with brand new Toro equipment."

"We love the increase in productivity using our new Salsco HP11-III greens roller. Now a single operator rolls greens instead of two. Also, the topdressing brush attachment does a great job while saving even more time."
