Irrigation Atlanta
On the verge of a new irrigation system installation? When designing an irrigation system, the company you choose should consider the presence of existing trees and shrubs in the lawn as well as any flower beds, etc. They should also be aware if you are planning to expand your landscaping later, that way they can install the system with that future addition in mind.

Landscape Lighting Atlanta
With a landscape lighting system, you get not only beauty, but lighting is also a means to provide security and safety. Changes in the elevation of your yard, low shrubs and plants that people can trip ove-all are potential safety concerns. You may also have changes in your steps, the deck, the driveway and the entrance ways. All of these potential safety hazards and more can be addressed with landscape lighting. And for an extra measure of security, you can have a timer installed so you can control when the lights come on and go off.

Irrigation Atlanta Winterization
Winter is the time of year when most people are thinking about shutting down their irrigation system. It is also a time of year when pipes and parts can freeze and bust causing a huge mess! Properly shutting down the system for the winter can prevent these headaches now and when spring time comes.

Irrigation System Atlanta
The Irrigation Associations "Irrigation Best Management Practices" provides that "the irrigation system shall be designed to be efficient and UNIFORMLY distribute the water." We see so many systems on the repair side of our business that are designed improperly. Design is the first cruicial step to assuring that you have an irrigation system that works properly. Anybody can throw pipe in the ground and call it irrigation, an irrigation professional does so much more.

New Irrigation System Atlanta
Right now is the best time to plan and install your new irrigation system in Atlanta. Installation this time of year, particularly while the sod is dormant, will allow the trench lines to cover from the installation when the sod comes out of dormancy. This will provide you with a luxurious green lawn this spring.
There will be a rush after the first few warm days of people trying to plan and install irrigation systems as there is every year. I would highly recommend you do this now to beat the rush. Most irrigation companies in Atlanta are running specials for new irrigation system installations and giving free new irrigation system estimates. You will already be ahead of the game when spring comes so that your lawn reaches it's fullest potential.
You can find more out on our website about our company and specials.

Not only will it illuminate your home but it can also deter criminals and save you from injury as well. (Nothing like tripping over something in the dark and falling into the flower bed!)

Irrigation Systems Atlanta
So you think your irrigation system is leaking because you got a higher than normal water bill? Check your valve boxes for water if there is no noticeable area of water in your yard. Before you call an irrigation repair company such as ours also check for leaking, dribbling toilets and faucets. We had a customer with a $300 increase in her bill who was convinced it was her irrigation system. Turned out it was a dribbling toilet that drove her bill up.

Irrigation Maintenance Atlanta
To prevent damage to your irrigation system and lower your overall irrigation costs, establish a maintenance schedule with a reputable irrigation company in Atlanta. At a minimum your system should be winterized then activated in the spring as well as inspected in the spring for any repairs or adjustments that need to be made. In most cases you also save over having winter and spring service done separately, in addition to discounts if repairs are necessary.

New Irrigation System Atlanta
Now is definitely the time to finalize your plans for a new irrigation system. Be sure to use a reputable Atlanta irrigation company that will comply with the state laws for rain sensors and backflow. Also, each county has it's own requirements so make sure they know your county's requirements as well. Take the time to chose wisely - cheaper is not always better - you often get what you pay for so if you want the best it may cost you a little more but in the long run you will save a lot of money!

Irrigation System Rain Sensors
With the rainfall we are getting, it once again reminds me of the importance of rain sensors for irrigation systems. This is a small investment in saving water in the event of a sporadic shower or rainfall. If you don't have one, I encourage you today to inquire about getting one with an irrigation company in Atlanta. Not only will it save you money, save water waste but will help to conserve water as well.

Irrigation Atlanta Maintenance
Maintenance of your irrigation system is as crucial as changing the oil in your car. I've said that before and I'll say it again. Since we had some frosty temperatures earlier this week and more to come this weekend, many customers are getting their irrigation systems maintained and properly shut down for winter (winterization). If you haven't, we would encourage you to do so as it will help to increase the longevity of your irrigation system.

Irrigation Atlanta-Winterizations
What could happen if I don't winterize my irrigation system? If you don't winterize your system, heads and pipes can crack because of water remaining in the lines. If you are using a pump, the pump can crack too for the very same reason. It doesn't cost much to winterize a system. If you're thinking that we live in the south and dont need to do this-dont forget it freezes here too! If your goal is to save money by not getting it winterized, this could backfire. (Repairs could be costly and time consuming.)
