Frequently Asked Questions

How much does an irrigation system cost to install in Sanford?

Cost depends on the size of the area being watered, the number of zones, soil and terrain conditions, water source and pressure, and the type of heads or drip lines used. Obstacles like mature trees, hardscaping, or steep slopes also add labor. We measure your property and provide a written estimate before any work begins.

How long does installation take from start to finish?

Most residential installations are completed in one to a few days, depending on lot size and zone count. Before we dig, we schedule utility locating, which typically requires several business days' notice. We then trench, lay pipe, set heads, install the controller and backflow device, test each zone, and walk you through the system.

Will installing sprinklers tear up my existing lawn?

We use trenching and pipe-pulling equipment that keeps disturbance narrow. You'll see visible seams in the turf for a few weeks, but we backfill, tamp, and replace sod strips where possible. Grass typically knits back over the lines during the next growing season. Beds, driveways, and walkways are worked around carefully.

What's included in the installation, and do you handle permits or backflow requirements?

Installation includes system design, utility locating coordination, trenching, piping, valves, sprinkler heads and drip lines, a programmable controller, backflow prevention, and full testing. We handle required permits and backflow paperwork for your jurisdiction and connect to your water supply. We also program the initial watering schedule and show you how to adjust it.

How many zones will my yard need?

Zones are determined by your available water pressure and flow rate, not just lawn size. Turf, shrub beds, and shaded or sunny areas have different watering needs and are separated so each gets the right amount. During the site evaluation we test your pressure and flow, then design the minimum number of zones that will cover everything properly.

What maintenance does the system need after installation?

Plan on a spring startup to check heads and adjust coverage, seasonal schedule changes as temperatures shift, and a winterization blowout before the first hard freeze to protect pipes. Heads occasionally need cleaning or realignment after mowing. We can handle these visits for you or show you how to check the system yourself.

Can you add an irrigation system to a yard that's already landscaped?

Yes. We route lines to minimize impact on established beds, trees, and hardscaping, often using drip tubing in planted areas instead of spray heads. We'll flag the layout with you beforehand so you know exactly where trenches will run and can point out anything underground, like invisible fence wire or low-voltage lighting.
