Hand watering a Massachusetts lawn through July and August is a losing battle. Hot, dry stretches stress cool-season grass, and many towns set outdoor watering limits during dry summers, so the water you do use has to count. A well-planned sprinkler system puts the right amount of water in the right place, early in the morning, without anyone dragging a hose.
We install underground irrigation for new lawns, existing yards and new construction. Each zone is planned for what it waters: rotors for open lawn, sprays for smaller areas and drip lines for shrubs and planting beds. Sunny slopes and shaded corners get separate zones so one does not drown while the other dries out.
For builders and general contractors, we can install the system before final grading and sod or seed, so the yard is ready when the house is. For homeowners, we work around existing patios, walkways and gardens and restore the lawn where we trench.
