Make sure your system is on and in working order before the appointment. If the system is not working properly when we arrive, we will not be able to reschedule. Also, an adult (18 years or older) must be on the premises during the entire appointment, so please plan accordingly.

What does the evaluation involve?

Our associate will perform a visual inspection of all zones, making minor adjustments where they can and marking down any bigger issues. They will then test certain zones to measure how much water the sprinklers put out and how evenly that water is distributed. By the end of the appointment they will have an efficient watering schedule based off your specific system.

During this appointment can you help identify or fix leaks?

While our associates do look for obvious signs of a leak, our service is not for leak finding and we cannot fix any leaks. We recommend finding a landscaper if you suspect you have a leak.

When does my evaluation report arrive?

You will be emailed your report by the end of the day of your evaluation. If you do not have an email, you will be mailed a paper report within two to three weeks of the evaluation.
