The cost of a new irrigation system depends on various factors such as the size of your property, the type of system you choose, your water source, and any special features you might need. We offer free consultations to assess your specific requirements and provide a customized quote. Our goal is to create an efficient and reliable system that aligns with your budget.

Watering frequency is determined by factors including plant types, soil composition, weather conditions, and the season. Generally, lawns require about 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week, preferably divided into 2-3 deep watering sessions. Gardens may need more frequent watering, particularly during hot or dry spells. Watering early in the morning is recommended to reduce evaporation and prevent plant diseases. Smart irrigation systems can automatically adjust watering schedules based on environmental conditions, promoting a healthy and water-efficient landscape.

Winterization should be completed before the first hard freeze, typically in late fall around October or early November, depending on your location. This process is essential to prevent water backflow from freezing and causing costly damage. It involves shutting off the water supply and draining the lines to remove any remaining water. We recommend scheduling winterization early to ensure your system is protected before temperatures drop. Using air to purge the system can help prevent pipes and valves from freezing, although this isn't guaranteed.

An automatic sprinkler system can potentially reduce your water bill, especially when properly designed and programmed. These systems deliver precise amounts of water at optimal times, preventing overwatering and runoff. Smart controllers and weather sensors adjust watering based on environmental conditions, ensuring your landscape receives exactly what it needs without waste. This efficiency often leads to noticeable water bill savings over time.
