Commercial Irrigation System
One of the best ways to keep your property’s grass, plants, and trees looking their best is by ensuring your irrigation system and drainage work properly. A well-maintained irrigation system is essential for the health and vibrancy of your landscape, providing consistent water to your greenery and preventing issues such as overwatering or underwatering.

Steps involved in commercial irrigation system installation
Designing the System
The first step involves creating a detailed plan, including mapping out the irrigation zones, selecting appropriate sprinkler heads and pipes, and determining water requirements for different areas.
Excavation & Site Preparation
This step includes clearing the installation site, marking trenches, and excavating the ground to lay pipes and sprinkler heads.
Installing Sprinklers & Pipes
In this phase, pipes are laid in the trenches and connected to sprinkler heads, ensuring proper coverage and water distribution.
Water Source Connection
The irrigation system is connected to a reliable water source, such as a municipal supply, well, or water tank, ensuring adequate water flow and pressure.
Control Valves & Timers
Control valves are installed to manage water flow to different zones, and timers are set up to automate the watering schedule, ensuring efficient water use.
Backflow Prevention
Finally, backflow prevention devices are installed to protect the water supply from contamination, ensuring the system operates safely and complies with local regulations.

- Rotary Sprinklers: These rotate to cover large areas with streams of water, suitable for expansive landscapes.
- Fixed Spray Sprinklers: These emit a fixed pattern of water, ideal for small to medium-sized areas and more precise watering.
Drip Irrigation Systems
- Surface Drip Irrigation: Delivers water directly to the soil surface near the plants’ root zones, reducing water waste and evaporation.
- Subsurface Drip Irrigation: Buried lines deliver water directly to the root zones, minimizing evaporation and runoff, ideal for gardens and landscaped areas.
Micro-Irrigation Systems
- Micro-Sprinklers: Emit fine droplets of water over small areas, suitable for shrubs, flowerbeds, and ground cover.
