Case study

Irrigation system replacement

An irrigation system is invisible until it fails, then it wastes water, misses zones, and lets a landscape struggle. These projects replace worn-out systems on metro Atlanta properties with new heads, valves, and controllers laid out for even coverage, so the whole landscape gets watered properly and efficiently.

The problem

An old system that fights the landscape

Sprinkler systems wear out. Heads clog or break, valves stick, lines develop leaks, spray patterns drift off the lawn and onto the drive, and older controllers cannot adjust to the season. The result is a landscape that is watered unevenly, dry in one corner and soggy in another, while the water bill climbs. At some point, chasing failures across an aging system costs more than starting fresh.

A full replacement is the chance to fix the whole thing at once: lay out the zones properly, set the heads for even coverage, and put in efficient, current parts with a controller that can be tuned to the weather. These projects take a property from a failing system to one that quietly does its job.

The approach

What a full replacement covers

A replacement is not just swapping broken parts, it is designing the system the landscape actually needs. This is what goes into one.

  • When a system is worth replacing

    An old system that leaks, sprays the driveway, misses whole zones, or runs on a failing controller often wastes more water than a new one would cost to run. Past a point, patching it costs more than replacing it.

  • Designed for even coverage

    A replacement is a chance to lay the system out properly, zones grouped by sun and plant type, heads spaced for head-to-head coverage, so the whole landscape gets what it needs and nothing is left dry or drowned.

  • New heads, valves, and control

    A full replacement swaps the heads, valves, and manifold for current, efficient parts and a modern controller, so watering can be tuned to the season rather than left running on a schedule no one remembers setting.

  • Seasonal service after

    Once a system is in, our irrigation specialists keep it right with a spring start-up, mid-season checks, and winterization, so a missed head or a leak is caught before it costs a brown patch or a high water bill.
