Layout & Design

The system is designed in the yard with the homeowner and foreman of the crew. The homeowner is then walked through the job to ensure there are no surprises while we mark out the site and measure the system.

Depending on the clients request: Blue prints are then drawn up and provided to the homeowner (for an additional fee) for approval prior to installation.

After the yard is measured and blue prints approved, we then set a date for our team to begin!

We start by Calling Dig Safe because it is the law! Dig Safe will come out and mark all underground utilities to prevent us from damaging utilities or personal injury.

1-800-DIG-SAFE or 811

Once all the utilities have been marked our crew with begin digging! We will start by bringing in our trencher and trenching out each line of your system.

While the rest of the team digs out the trenches and designated areas for your valve boxes.

Once the system has been trenched and leveled, our team will then come in with all your systems parts.

Laying your pvc pipe and digging out the designated areas for each sprinkler head.

While the crew is busily installing the pipe and digging your sprinkler head area for sprinkler heads.

Our head licensed technician will install the outside back flow preventer in compliance with all the state codes and hook up to your waters main system.

The heads are installed with care. They are installed flush with the grade of the loam below the turf. Heads are pre-adjusted and backfilled.

The valves are installed in and covered with standard valve boxes, unless otherwise requested, at a location of the homeowners discrection. We make sure we put these boxes in spots that are both easy to locate and easy to hide.

Once the valves are connected and the system tested they are wired. The wiring is low voltage and no permit or electrician is needed.

The timer is the brain of the system. Without a good timer the system can’t save you money or our natural resources. We install the timer at the location the homeowner requests.

Most importantly, we install always recommend to place the timer where it is convenient for you to monitor and adjust.

Clean up is what the customer will notice the most. Since most of what we do is underground, some customers only care about how their yard looks when we are done. We make the yard look as good as the system performs. We rake, tamp, sweep and clean up as if it was a separate job we were hired to do.

Although, there is always settling of the soil and we can never guarantee that your yard will look exactly the same afterwards, as we just ran a trencher through it. However, we can guarantee it will recover very quickly.

Once the system is charged and checked for leaks, we begin adjustments. We attend to each head to make sure it is not leaking and that it is adjusted perfectly.

The timer is adjusted to the season. The season dictates the duration and frequency of the watering.

This is where you come in!

You will need a lesson on the basics of your new system. The timer has instructions with it, but we will walk you through it the first time and we are only a phone call away for any questions.

We then walk through the yard and show you how to adjust the heads and explain the rest of the system’s components.
