What to Expect

We are happy to provide you with all the information you need to make an informed choice. First, we want to view your property in order to determine soil conditions, water sources and pressure, and planting materials. Then, with your landscape design and selections known, we'll present a formal estimate detailing what we plan to do and the total price for design, materials, and installation. Along with our estimate, we will clearly explain all the project specifics. Our average job should take less than a week to complete.

As you think about your landscape irrigation needs, feel comfortable asking us questions.By asking us, you will know what type of sprinkler system you are getting for your money and what to expect from your new system. Here are a few important questions to consider:

• What type of product will be used and why? We will tell you the type of controller, valves, rotors and spray heads are best for your landscape.
• What after-sale service do we provide? We are willing and able to provide after-sale service.
• What is the system warranty? Our work is guaranteed, and a one-year warranty is typical.
• We will gladly provide references? As a professional, we are willing to provide you with the names and telephone numbers of recent satisfied customers, so you can call and check our references.

You Get What You Pay For

When choosing a contractor, you should be wary of those who offer to charge you significantly less than others. Low bidders may not be licensed or insured and may often use cost-cutting techniques that can jeopardize your lawn and shorten the life of your system.

Be alert for these commonly used, detrimental short-cuts:

• Not including a backflow preventer: This is often required by local codes to protect your drinking water.
• Installing sprinklers too far apart: This makes it impossible for certain areas to receive enough water and can cause brown spots during the hot summer months.
• Mixing sprinklers with different application rates on the same line: This causes one area to be over watered in order to sufficiently water another.
• Not using special watertight connectors and a protective valve box: These components are necessary to safeguard the electrical elements, guard against short circuits and prevent corrosion.

Your sprinkler system is a complex network of pipes, valves, sprinklers, and electrical connections. Because it serves as the circulation system for your entire yard, the design and installation of your sprinkler system is critical. This is a complicated process that requires specialized tools and equipment, as well as a strong knowledge of landscape design and hydraulics. This is why it is so important to have a professional contractor design and install your system.
