Irrigation Systems

If you're thinking about installing a lawn irrigation system this year, I can provide you with a complete installation. I use Rainbird systems and install them using rigid PVC pipe with flexible tubing at the spray heads. I design the system to provide even coverage throughout the lawn. There are cheaper ways to install irrigation systems, and I repair those systems quite often. But for new installations, going the extra mile on the installation, will definitely pay off in the long run. For landscape beds I use a special micro irrigation setup that puts the valuable water exactly where it needs to be and doesn't waste it by spraying the foliage.

Irrigation Maintenance

Irrigation maintenance begins in the spring with a spring startup. This startup makes sure your irrigation system is operating efficiently from the timer to the sprayheads. I also perform an efficiency test. This includes making sure that:

• Spray heads spray in the right direction (not on the driveway, house or off-property areas)

• Correct watering times (length of run time and which days to water)

• General irrigation system repair (fix broken heads, leaking pipes, controller problems, malfunctioning valves)

• Winterizing the system (shutting off the water, blowing out pipes to prevent system freeze damage)

Irrigation systems save you time, and money. All plants require water on a regular basis. Making sure your expensive plantings get that water consistently not only improves the health and look of your landscape, but a properly installed and maintained automatic irrigation system conserves water. Did you know that a clogged head or a torn line can wreak havoc on your landscape and water bill? Systems need periodic preventative maintenance to insure they are operating under optimum conditions.
