Irrigation
Want to keep your landscape healthy, green, and beautiful, even in the dry summer months? Celtic Lawn & Landscape can help. A Celtic Lawn & Landscape irrigation specialist will work with you to plan, design, install, and maintain a watering system optimized for effectiveness and cost efficiency.
Some people are under the misconception that irrigation systems are expensive and not cost effective. Do you know that, with the right irrigation system, you can reduce your water total usage by 10% to 60%? If installed and programmed properly, automatic irrigation systems can even save you money and help in water conservation. Watering with a hose or even an oscillator, wastes water. Neither method targets plant roots with any significant degree of precision. Automatic irrigation systems can be programmed to discharge more precise amounts of water in a targeted area, which promotes water conservation.
Sprinkler System Installation
Celtic Lawn & Landscape sprinkler systems are professionally designed and installed. Our highly experienced install crews will use the proper equipment to work efficiently about your property, minimizing damage to grass and surrounding landscape areas. Our crews coordinate with licensed plumbers to ensure compliance with permit requirements and local building codes. Where required, your backflow device will be properly certified.
We price our jobs by the number of zones (watering stations), not by the hour. Our rates will vary slightly depending on the difficulty of your landscaping (e.g. boring under driveways, concrete walls, drilling past and cutting through large tree roots, etc).
Upon completion our irrigation foreman will perform a total walk-through with you and show you how to operate your timer and all emergency shut-off valves. All of our new installations are guaranteed as well as our repair/service.
Start-Up Services
Start-up services are offered between the months of April and May. The sprinkler start-up service includes turning on the main water supply, programming the timer, adjusting and repairing any necessary sprinkler heads or parts.
Winterizing Services
Winterizing services are offered during the month of October and November. All irrigation systems must be properly shut down for the cold season to avoid broken water mains and damage to the system. The winterizing service is a process called a “Blow Out” in which compressed air is used to remove all the water from the system in order to avoid freezing. After the water is removed the system, the rain sensors are prepared, and the timer is shut off.
Sprinkler System Management
A Celtic Lawn & Landscape irrigation specialist will perform a monthly (June thru September) adjustment of individual heads and re-programming of clock run times to compensate for varying weather conditions, and to detect problems before turf is damaged. This service will also help to conserve water throughout the season.
