Services
Underground Sprinklers
Our underground sprinkler systems use durable Rain Bird components to deliver efficient, low-maintenance irrigation for lawns and gardens. Custom designs optimize water distribution while minimizing waste, with hidden spray heads that retract when not in use. Systems include programmable timers and rain sensors for automated, weather-responsive operation.
Landscape Lighting
Professional landscape lighting installations enhance safety and aesthetics with programmable timers and concealed wiring. We offer uplighting, wash lighting, and spotlighting options to highlight architectural features and garden focal points. Systems are designed for durability and seamless integration with existing outdoor spaces.
Winterization
Winterization services protect irrigation systems from freezing damage using high-volume air compressors to clear water from lines. This seasonal maintenance ensures system longevity and prevents costly repairs. We recommend scheduling winterization before the first hard freeze for optimal protection.
Commercial Systems
Custom commercial irrigation solutions serve large properties like parks, cemeteries, and apartment complexes. Our systems minimize disruption to existing landscapes while maximizing water efficiency. Equipment is built to withstand heavy use and tailored to site-specific needs such as soil type and plant requirements.
Backflow Testing
Certified backflow testing ensures compliance with local regulations by preventing contamination of drinking water supplies. We test devices annually and submit reports directly to the city. This service is critical for maintaining public health standards and system functionality.

Called and received service on the same day. Technician was very thorough, he fixed what he was called for, plus checked that all zones were working properly before leaving. Reasonable rate. Highly recommended.
