Irrigation Systems in Sandwich, Illinois
An irrigation system is only as good as its coverage. We lay out zones by hydraulics and by what is actually growing - turf heads on turf, drip in planting beds, separate zones for sun and shade - so no area is soaked while another one browns out.
Installation is done with a vibratory plow to keep lawn damage minimal, with heads set flush, swing joints on every head, and a backflow device that meets local code.
We also take over systems installed by someone else. Spring startups, mid-season adjustments, head and valve repairs, controller upgrades and fall winterization are all part of what we do.

Why It Matters
Even coverage
Head-to-head spacing and correct nozzles mean the whole zone gets watered, not just the middle.
Lower water bills
Smart controllers and rain sensors skip cycles the lawn does not need.
Protects your investment
New sod, plantings and hydroseed need consistent water for the first two seasons - this is how they survive.

Common Questions
When should I winterize?
Can you service a system you did not install?
Will installation wreck my lawn?
A vibratory plow makes a narrow slit rather than an open trench. The lawn typically knits back together within two to three weeks.
Yes. Startups, repairs, controller swaps and winterizations on existing systems are a regular part of our schedule.
