Frequently Asked Questions

 The only people who will work on your Installation are Exceptional Landscape lighting & Irrigation employees. Our team members have experience and we will all be familiar with your landscape needs

The cost of irrigation systems varies, because every system is uniquely designed to match the requirements of each home. The most important benefit we offer, as an automatic sprinkler installer, is the expertise necessary to design highly efficient systems that reduce water usage and save money. Our goal is to provide superior value for your investment over time. 

Yes. We recommend that those invested in the decision-making process are available for the estimate. There are many issues to be addressed and this will allow the process to proceed in the most expedient manner. This also provides a great opportunity for homeowners to ask us questions.  

How does the installation affect my lawn?

Since we want to ensure minimal disruption in the lawn, we use a Vibratory Plow to install the system underground. We use this method because the lawn is expertly sliced, rather than dug into with a trencher. (Our installation crews dig smaller areas manually.)

All areas are cleaned up thoroughly after installation. The irrigation system itself aids in the lawn’s healing process as well. Typically, after 7-14 days, it is hard to tell we were even there! 

How long does an installation take?

Most residential projects take 2–4 days to complete, depending on the size of the property and the number of sprinkler heads being installed.

We do our best to inform you of our timeline for your planning purposes. 

Do I need to be home for the installation?

We do ask that someone is present for the plumber to install the backflow-preventer to the main water line. This typically takes about 2 hours.

We usually install the controller inside the garage, and ask that the garage door is open that day, or, that the homeowner is present to allow us access. Otherwise, no one is required to be present.
