Dry patches by the driveway and soggy puddles by the fence? That's usually a zoning issue. We plan tailored sprinkler zones for lawn areas and drip lines for beds, then handle your spring start-ups and fall blow-outs so your system in Chilliwack or Sardis runs smoothly every year.
Sprinkler and drip systems we've installed and maintain.
Zone valves plumbed together and wired, ready for the valve box.
A look at a custom irrigation manifold build in progress. The zone valves are plumbed with PVC pipe, wired, and run under the gravel to feed individual zones throughout the yard before being housed in a protective valve box. Leveraging irrigation experience from 20+ years in the golf course industry, Dave designs every system with the efficient routing, correct head spacing, and proper zone pressure required for peak efficiency.

Lines are trenched and laid out before anything is buried.
Preparing the underground supply lines for a custom irrigation system. The pipe runs along the perimeter of the open bed, beside the gravel and cedar hedge, before the trenches are backfilled and compacted. With extensive experience in smart zone design, we ensure every system we build is routed for reliable performance and complete sprinkler coverage.

A sprinkler head dug out for a repair.
Here, we're replacing a damaged sprinkler head by exposing the fittings beneath the surface. To do it right, we dig out the housing, replace the broken head or riser, and test the zone to ensure proper pop-up height and spray coverage before the soil goes back. We set every head flush with the lawn line so it clears the grass easily when running, while staying completely safe from mower blades and foot traffic.

Sunny lawns, shady side yards, and shrub beds all need different amounts of water, so each gets its own zone and run time. Efficient drip lines feed beds at the roots with far less waste, and controllers are set to align with local watering regulations during dry summers.
Whether you need a brand-new system or a tune-up on one that's never worked quite right, the process follows these simple steps.
We check water pressure, sun and shade, slopes, and every area that needs water.
Lawn, beds and shady spots get separate zones, with drip where it suits.
Narrow trenches, valves and heads installed, then the lawn is restored.
Spring start-up and head adjustments, then a fall blow-out before the freeze.
