Services
Sprinkler Systems
We design and install residential and commercial sprinkler systems using premium Hunter, Rainbird, and Toro components. Our systems optimize water usage while maintaining healthy landscapes. With proper installation and seasonal maintenance, our systems help property owners reduce water bills by up to 30% through efficient distribution and smart controller technology.
Landscape Lighting
Our custom lighting solutions enhance property aesthetics while improving security and functionality. Using durable, low-voltage fixtures, we create layered lighting effects that highlight architectural features and landscape elements. Each system includes a transformer, strategically placed fixtures, and seasonal adjustments to maintain optimal illumination throughout the year.
Smart Irrigation
Our smart irrigation systems integrate weather sensors and programmable controllers to optimize water usage. These systems automatically adjust watering schedules based on real-time conditions, reducing waste while maintaining landscape health. We use EPA WaterSense-certified components that meet current conservation standards and regulatory requirements for sustainable water management.
Directional Boring
We provide trenchless pipe installation for irrigation systems using directional boring technology. This method minimizes surface disruption while installing underground utilities with precision. Our contractors use modern equipment to navigate obstacles and install pipes at optimal depths for long-term durability and system performance.
Service Programs
Our maintenance programs include seasonal start-ups, winterization, and system assessments. Plans range from basic winterization to comprehensive coverage with priority scheduling. Each program includes professional inspections, component adjustments, and controller programming to ensure optimal system performance throughout the irrigation season.
