Irrigation Systems
A system designed for your property's zones, soil and slope — not a generic layout.
What it covers
What irrigation systems involves.
An irrigation system only works if it's planned around your property: where the sun hits, where the soil holds water, where the grade runs, and what's actually growing in each area. Systems assembled without that plan are the reason most yards have a dry patch and a swamp.
We design zone by zone, trench and install the mainline and laterals, set matched heads so precipitation is even, and finish by programming the controller so each zone gets what it needs.
Included in the scope
- Zone-by-zone design based on sun, soil and plant type
- Trenching, mainline and backflow provisions
- PVC and poly lateral lines installed to depth
- Matched-precipitation sprinkler heads for even coverage
- Drip zones for beds, planters and narrow strips
- Valve manifolds, controller setup and schedule programming

What a properly designed system fixes
If two or three of these sound familiar, it's worth getting an assessment — most of the cost is in the underlying cause, and it's usually cheaper to fix before it spreads.
- 01Dry spots and oversaturated spots caused by mismatched heads
- 02Hand-watering constantly, and still losing plants
- 03New sod or a new landscape that needs reliable, even coverage
- 04A system that's been added to piecemeal with no overall plan
- 05Beds getting soaked while the lawn gets nothing
- 06Pressure problems that leave the far end of a zone starving
Why have it done properly
What you get out of it.
Doing this work well isn't complicated — it's just unforgiving of shortcuts, which is why the details below are the ones that matter.
Even coverage, zone by zone
Matching head types and spacing within each zone means the whole area gets the same amount of water instead of one wet corner and one dry one.
Less water for a better result
Correct zoning means run times can be tuned per area, so you're not over-watering the shade to reach the sun.
Built to be serviced later
Valves in accessible boxes, clear zone mapping and sensible routing all make future repairs quicker and cheaper.
How it runs
The process, step by step.
Every estimate is free and every visit is on-site. Nothing is ordered or scheduled until you've seen the number.
- 01
Design the zones
We map the property, measure pressure and flow, and split the yard into zones that belong together.
- 02
Trench and rough in
Mainline and lateral trenches are cut, pipe is laid to depth, and the valve manifold is positioned in an accessible spot.
- 03
Set heads and test
Sprinkler heads are installed and adjusted, and the system is run zone by zone to check coverage, pressure and drainage.
- 04
Program and hand over
The controller is wired and programmed, you get a walkthrough of what each zone covers, and the site is restored.
