What’s Included in Our Residential Irrigation Installation

From trenching to smart timers, we build every system to thrive in our Northern California climate.

Sprinkler System Installation

Our team professionally installs sprinkler systems designed to deliver even, efficient water coverage across your lawn. We use high-quality sprinkler heads tailored to your yard’s dimensions, ensuring no dry patches or overspray. With over 40 years of experience, we build systems that work seamlessly with the Northern California climate—balancing performance, efficiency, and compliance with local water restrictions.

Ideal for flower beds, vegetable gardens, and low-water landscapes, our drip irrigation systems deliver water directly to the root zone. This method minimizes waste and supports healthy growth in your garden boxes, native plants, and drought-tolerant landscapes. We install pressure regulators and filters for long-lasting performance and reduced maintenance.

Every irrigation system we install is customized with zone planning in mind. Whether you’re watering lawn, trees, or delicate plants, we separate these into dedicated irrigation zones, each with its own valve. This zoning ensures each area of your landscape receives the right amount of water, saving you money and reducing overwatering.

Our crew handles all trenching and underground piping with precision, minimizing disruption to your existing landscaping. We install durable PVC or poly tubing based on your needs, then perform thorough pressure and leak testing before the job is complete. Every system is carefully inspected to ensure full functionality and reliability before we walk you through the final layout.

We include a winterization valve to help you prep your irrigation system for colder months, protecting it from freeze damage. For added efficiency, we also offer rain sensors that prevent your sprinklers from running during or after rainfall—helping conserve water and stay compliant with watering guidelines.

Want to automate your watering schedule? We install smart irrigation controllers that adapt to weather changes, monitor local conditions, and adjust your zones accordingly. Many models are app-based, giving you real-time control from your phone. It’s the perfect solution for homeowners who want to save water while keeping their landscapes lush year-round.
