Irrigation Installation
Irrigation System Installation
Every zone, every head, every drip emitter, installed to the plan, tested to pressure, and certified correct. Water where it belongs. None where it doesn't.

The Craft
Installed to the plan. Tested to pressure.
Irrigation failures aren't random, they're installation failures. Heads set at the wrong height get scalped by mowers. Zones with mixed head types deliver inconsistent coverage. Pipe laid without proper depth gets cracked by frost or edging tools. We install every system to the zone map, set every head to grade, and test the full system at operating pressure before we leave the job site.
We're backflow certified (#719918) and handle the full install, trenching, pipe, heads, drip emitters, controller wiring, and backflow device. New construction or retrofit into an existing landscape. Coordinated with your water meter and pressure so the system performs as designed from the first season.

Our irrigation installation process covers
5core dimensions
- §01
Zone Layout from Approved Plan
We install from the zone map, not from a guess. Every head placement, pipe run, and valve location follows the design. No improvising in the trench.
- §02
Trenching & Pipe Installation
Trenched to proper depth for freeze protection. Mainline and lateral pipe installed, glued, and pressure-tested before any heads go in.
- §03
Head & Emitter Installation
Heads set to finish grade, not soil grade. Drip emitters staked or buried to plan. Spray radius and drip flow rate verified for each zone.
- §04
Controller & Valve Wiring
Smart controller wired to valves, rain sensor installed and connected, and initial zone programming set for plant establishment.
- §05
Backflow Testing & Certification
Backflow prevention device installed, tested to code, and certified. Required for any system connected to a potable water supply.
Two delivery methods. One system.
Spray and rotor systems installed head-to-grade and zone-correct.
Even coverage starts with even installation. Every head set to grade, every zone matched to its head type, every radius verified before the trench gets backfilled.
Trench mainline and lateral runs to frost-safe depth
Install valves and wire to controller
Set spray or rotor heads to finish grade
Verify radius and arc for each head, no dry spots
Pressure-test full zone before backfilling
Drip irrigation installed where every drop counts.
Beds, borders, and container plantings get drip, separately zoned from spray, with emitters sized to each plant's needs and runtimes programmed to match.
Run drip mainline to planting zones from valve
Install emitters at each plant to plan specification
Flush lines and verify emitter flow rate
Stake or bury tubing per zone design
Program drip zones separately from spray, different runtimes required
Set it up right. Then forget it.
A properly installed irrigation system runs for fifteen years without you thinking about it heads at the right height, zones covering what they're supposed to cover, backflow protection passing inspection every time. A poorly installed one is a constant source of dry spots, wet spots, and mid-season head replacements. We install once, test everything, and hand you a system you can actually set and forget.
