Start-Ups
When spring arrives, your irrigation system needs a careful restart to get ready for the new season. Our start-up service at Ed Hardscape and Irrigation ensures your system wakes up from winter safely and efficiently. We inspect every line, nozzle, and valve to detect potential issues early, make necessary adjustments, and program your controller for optimal watering schedules. This proactive service helps prevent leaks, uneven watering, and unnecessary wear on your equipment. With our start-up expertise, you can step into the growing season with confidence, knowing your irrigation system is primed to deliver consistent, reliable performance all year long.
Winterization
Freezing temperatures can wreak havoc on an unprotected irrigation system, causing cracked pipes, burst valves, and costly repairs. At Ed Hardscape and Irrigation, our professional winterization service ensures your system stays safe through the coldest months. We carefully clear all water from your lines, valves, and heads using specialized equipment to prevent freeze damage. This essential step protects your investment and ensures an easy, trouble-free start-up when spring returns. Don’t let winter catch you off guard; our team will make sure your irrigation system rests easy until it’s time to bring your lawn back to life.
Backflow
Backflow prevention is an essential part of protecting your home’s water supply. At Ed Hardscape and Irrigation, we provide certified backflow installation and testing services that ensure your irrigation system meets all safety and regulatory standards. Backflow devices prevent contaminated water from flowing backward into your household plumbing, keeping your drinking water clean and safe. Our team handles every step with precision, from installation to annual testing and maintenance, so you never have to worry about compliance or contamination. With our reliable service, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your water is always fresh and protected.
Drip
Drip irrigation is the perfect solution for targeted, efficient watering that keeps your plants thriving while conserving water. At Ed Hardscape and Irrigation, we design and install custom drip systems that deliver moisture directly to the roots, exactly where your plants need it most. This reduces runoff, prevents evaporation, and keeps weeds under control. Whether it’s for garden beds, planters, or shrub zones, our drip systems are built for precision and longevity. With our tailored approach, you’ll enjoy lush, healthy plants without wasting a drop of water, combining efficiency and beauty in every installation.

FAQs
How often should my irrigation system run?
The ideal watering schedule depends on your soil type, grass variety, and the season. Most lawns need deep watering two to three times per week rather than short, daily watering. Our smart controllers can automatically adjust run times based on weather conditions to make sure your yard always gets the right amount of water.
Do you offer free estimates for irrigation installation?
Yes, we provide free, no-obligation estimates for all irrigation installation projects. We’ll evaluate your property, discuss your specific needs, and design a custom system that fits your landscape and budget before any work begins.
What is the best time of year to install a new irrigation system?
Spring and early fall are the best times to install a new irrigation system because the ground is workable and your plants are actively growing. However, we can install systems year-round as long as the weather conditions allow for safe excavation and setup.
How do I know if my irrigation system needs repair?
Common signs include uneven watering, dry spots, soggy areas, unusually high water bills, or visible leaks. If you notice any of these, our technicians can quickly inspect your system, find the problem, and make the necessary repairs to restore efficiency.
Why is winterization important for my irrigation system?
Winterization prevents trapped water from freezing and expanding inside your pipes, valves, or sprinkler heads. Without proper winterization, your system could suffer cracks and costly damage during freezing temperatures. Our team ensures your system is fully cleared and protected before winter arrives.
What is backflow testing, and do I need it?
Backflow testing ensures that your irrigation system’s backflow preventer is working correctly to keep contaminated water from entering your drinking supply. Most cities require annual backflow testing for compliance and safety. We provide certified testing, documentation, and repairs if needed.
Can you upgrade my existing irrigation system to a smart controller?
Absolutely. We can replace your old controller with a new smart system that connects to Wi-Fi and automatically adjusts watering schedules based on weather, temperature, and soil moisture. This upgrade helps you save water, reduce costs, and keep your lawn looking great with minimal effort.
