3. Can you design and install a new irrigation (sprinkler) system?

Yes! We design and install custom irrigation systems based on your property’s layout, slope, soil type, and plant needs. Our team ensures efficient water coverage, zoning, and modern control options to keep your landscape healthy year-round.

4. Do you handle irrigation repairs and maintenance?

5. What warranties or guarantees come with your irrigation installations?

All of our irrigation installations include a multi-year parts and workmanship warranty. We stand behind the quality of our work and use durable, professional-grade components to ensure long-term reliability.

6. Can you install smart or Wi-Fi irrigation controllers?

Yes, we install and configure smart irrigation controllers that adjust watering schedules based on weather and soil conditions. These systems help conserve water, reduce costs, and keep your landscape healthy year-round.

7. Why is winterizing my irrigation system important?

Winterizing removes water from pipes, valves, and backflow devices to prevent freezing and damage. Skipping winterization can result in cracked components and costly repairs. We recommend scheduling this service each fall before the first freeze.

8. Do you offer artificial turf installation?

Yes! We install premium artificial turf that looks great year-round and requires minimal maintenance. It’s an ideal option for homeowners who want a green lawn without watering or mowing.

9. Do you also offer sod or lawn installation?

Yes, we install both natural sod and artificial turf. Sod is a great choice for homeowners who prefer a natural lawn. We ensure proper grading, soil preparation, and irrigation setup for long-term success.

10. How far in advance should I schedule an installation or service?

During peak seasons, scheduling can fill up quickly. For installations, we recommend booking several weeks in advance. Repairs and maintenance are typically scheduled within a few days, depending on workload.

11. How should I prepare my property before your crew arrives?

Please clear access areas of furniture, toys, or vehicles. Let us know about any private utilities, fragile plants, or pet areas in advance. We handle utility locates before any digging, but your input helps our crews work efficiently and safely.

12. How can I request a quote or schedule service?
