At First Coast Refresh, irrigation isn’t just a service - it’s a commitment to caring for your home, your landscape, and your peace of mind. When you choose First Coast Refresh, you’re working directly with owners Jeremy and Melissa Slater, a local, family-run team that truly stands behind the quality of their work and the satisfaction of every customer they serve.

With more than 20 years of construction and project management experience, Jeremy brings deep technical expertise to every job, while Melissa’s background as a longtime educator ensures clear communication, attention to detail, and a customer-first approach. High school classmates turned partners in life and business, the Slaters relocated from upstate New York to St. Johns in 2019 and built their business by simply helping neighbors who needed fast, reliable sprinkler repairs at a fair price.

Today, First Coast Refresh proudly services both residential and small commercial properties throughout St. Johns County and surrounding areas. Whether it’s a modest system with just a few sprinkler heads or a more complex setup watering lawns, trees, shrubs, gardens, and flower beds, no job is too big - or too small - for their family business.

They understand how vital a properly working irrigation system is to the health of your landscape. When everything runs as it should, grass stays green, plants thrive, and trees remain strong. But when issues arise, the signs show quickly - brown patches, wilting plants, or stressed landscaping. As local homeowners themselves, Jeremy and Melissa know how important it is to protect the investment you’ve made in your property, which is why they encourage homeowners to call as soon as a potential issue appears. Catching problems early can prevent larger system failures and costly repairs down the road.

What truly sets First Coast Refresh apart is their proactive approach. Their popular maintenance memberships - available as pay-as-you-go or annual plans - focus on keeping systems running efficiently year-round, especially during Florida’s demanding summer months. They also offer honest guidance on water conservation, helping homeowners avoid overwatering, reduce waste, and lower water bills with a few smart system adjustments.

Deeply rooted in the community, First Coast Refresh supports local causes as a corporate sponsor of the Aberdeen Turkey Trot and Freedom Crossing Academy’s Partners in Education program. With free quotes and the ability to complete many repairs on the spot, they make irrigation service easy, approachable, and neighbor-focused.

As a local couple-preneur business, Jeremy and Melissa believe in doing what’s best for their customers, their neighbors, and their community - one healthy landscape at a time.
