Trenching, pipe laying, head installation, and controller setup. We test every zone and adjust heads for complete, even coverage.

Irrigation FAQs

A new residential irrigation system typically costs $3,000 to $6,000 for an average Denver yard. The price depends on yard size, number of zones, soil conditions, and controller type. Smart controllers add $200 to $500 but save significant water over time.

We recommend winterization (blowout) between mid-October and mid-November in Denver, before the first hard freeze. We use compressed air to clear all water from the lines, preventing pipe bursts and cracked heads. We start booking winterizations in September, so schedule early.

Yes. We repair all brands and types of irrigation systems. Common repairs include broken heads, leaking valves, controller malfunctions, and line breaks. We carry most common parts on our trucks and can complete most repairs in a single visit.

Denver Water enforces a summer watering schedule (typically June through October) that limits watering to specific days based on your address. We program every system to comply with these restrictions and can install rain sensors and smart controllers that adjust automatically.
