Yes. It will look like a war zone during installation, but you’ll hardly know we were there once the installation is complete.

Cost varies depending on the property size, areas needing water of different amounts, etc.

With an irrigation system, you will not use as much water because an electronic controller manages all areas watered.

This depends on water usage. If you already water your property regularly, you will most likely save money because it is being managed more reliably.

Absolutely.

We can upon request, but for a nominal fee.

We call for a “markout” of the property. A markout is called by your irrigation contractor. It is a free service performed by different utility companies that use electronic locators to determine and mark where all of the underground public utilities are running on the property (i.e., gas, electric, cable, telephone). 

The property owner is responsible for notifying the irrigation contractor of any private underground utilities (i.e., sump pump, drainage pipes, lighting, dog fence, etc..) before installation.

Tap on the head first to see if it goes down. If it continues to stay up, call for service.
