Irrigation & Drainage
Water where you want it. Nowhere you don't.
Sprinkler problems are almost never where they look like they are. A soggy patch in the lawn is usually a cracked line six feet away. A zone that won't come on is usually a solenoid, not the controller everyone blames first.
We find it before we dig, which is the difference between a repair and a project.
The other half of this is drainage, and around here it matters more than people expect. We get most of our rain in a handful of hard storms, and a yard that sheds it toward the house instead of away costs far more to fix later than a drain costs now.

How a zoned system should be laid out
What is actually under a french drain
Who calls us for this
One zone stopped working and you have no idea which valve it is.
A wet spot in the lawn that never dries out, or a dry one that never greens up.
Water pooling against the foundation every time it actually rains here.
What drives the price
There's no rate card on the site yet, because a made-up range helps nobody. Here's what actually moves the number:
- Whether it's one repair or a system that needs several
- How deep the line is and what's on top of it — lawn is easy, a patio is not
- Number of zones for a turn-on, blowout or controller job
- Whether we can find the problem from the surface or have to trace it
- For drainage: length of run and where the water has to go
Questions we get
When should I blow out my sprinklers in Grand Junction?
Book it for October. You want it done before the first hard freeze, and the last two weeks of October get busy fast — everyone calls the same week the forecast turns.
What happens if I skip the blowout?
Water left in the lines freezes and splits them, and you find out in April when you turn the system on and a zone floods. A blowout costs a fraction of that repair.
My controller says a zone is on but nothing happens. Is it the controller?
Usually not. Most often it's the valve solenoid or the wire to it. We check the cheap things first.
Can you convert my sprinklers to drip?
Yes, and in beds it's usually worth it. Drip puts water at the roots instead of into the air, which matters a lot in July here.
Do you handle ditch and irrigation water systems?
Tell us what you've got when you call. A lot of Orchard Mesa and Palisade properties run on ditch water and it's a different setup than city pressure.
