Irrigation System Installation
Engineered for Performance, Efficiency & Longevity. A properly designed irrigation system supports the long-term health and performance of your landscape.
We begin with a comprehensive site evaluation that considers sun exposure and microclimates, soil conditions, slope and drainage patterns, plant types and water requirements, and available municipal water pressure and flow rates.
For North Shore properties, erosion control and runoff management are important design considerations. Our systems are planned to distribute water evenly while helping protect foundations, gardens, and surrounding hardscape areas.
Specialized Irrigation Methodologies. We select irrigation systems based on the needs of each zone, using drip irrigation for garden beds and slopes, high-efficiency sprinklers for turf areas, and subsurface irrigation for high-value lawns and institutional landscapes. Every installation includes professional layout planning, trenching and line installation, quality valves and fittings, smart controller setup, and full zone testing to ensure reliable performance and efficient water use from the start.
Irrigation Repair Services
Advanced Diagnostics & Hydraulic Troubleshooting. Modern irrigation systems contain many interconnected components, and when one fails it can affect the entire system. Our technicians perform detailed inspections and pressure diagnostics to identify problems early and restore reliable irrigation performance.
Spring Start-Up (System Turn-On)
Safe Reactivation After Winter Dormancy. Improper start-ups can cause costly damage from pressure surges, so our spring activation process gradually pressurizes main lines, checks controllers and zones, inspects heads and nozzles, tests rain sensors, and performs flow and leak checks to ensure the system operates safely and reliably for the growing season.
Winterization (System Shut-Down)
Critical Freeze Protection. Even North Shore winters can cause freeze damage, so our winterization service removes water from every zone using a professional compressor blow-out, insulates the backflow device, isolates the main water supply, and places the controller in sleep mode to protect pipes, valves, and fittings before freezing temperatures arrive.
Irrigation System Expansions & Add-Ons
Adapting to Landscape Evolution. As landscapes mature and change, we expand existing irrigation systems with new zones, lawn-to-garden conversions, hardscape adjustments, and updated hydraulic capacity and pressure calculations to ensure your current infrastructure continues to operate safely and efficiently.
Retrofits & Smart Upgrades
The Modern Standard for Water Management. Upgrading outdated irrigation systems with pressure-regulated sprinkler bodies, high-efficiency nozzles, drip conversions, flow sensors, and smart Wi-Fi controllers can reduce water use and utility costs, while smart controllers automatically adjust watering schedules using real-time weather data and provide features such as smartphone access, leak alerts, automated adjustments, and detailed usage reporting.
Backflow Testing
Mandatory Public Health Protection. Irrigation systems are classified as high-hazard cross-connections, so certified backflow testing is required annually in North Shore municipalities; our technicians test DCVA and RPBA assemblies, submit required municipal reports and documentation, and repair or replace non-compliant devices to ensure systems remain fully compliant and municipal water supplies stay protected.
Bylaw Compliance & Permits
Navigating Municipal Regulations. Irrigation work in North Vancouver and West Vancouver often requires permits and inspections, so we manage permit applications, environmental considerations, and compliance with Metro Vancouver watering restrictions and Stage 1–3 conservation regulations while using efficient irrigation methods such as drip systems to help gardens remain healthy during summer restrictions.
Site Records & Maintenance Logs
Essential for Strata & Commercial Liability Protection. Professional documentation is essential for strata and commercial properties, so we maintain records of service visits, technician work, component repairs, backflow certifications, hydraulic assessments, and compliance documentation to support insurance requirements, asset planning, and long-term system management.
Outdoor Lighting Services
Engineering Aesthetics, Efficiency & Security. Landscape lighting enhances both function and design, and our systems combine ambient, accent, and task lighting to improve visibility while highlighting architectural features, trees, pathways, and outdoor spaces, using modern integrated LED fixtures that use up to 80% less energy, last 25,000–50,000 hours, resist moisture and vibration, and often achieve return on investment within two years through energy savings and reduced maintenance.
Replace or Repair Outdoor Lighting
We service existing landscape lighting systems by replacing halogen fixtures with LED, cleaning lenses to restore brightness, correcting voltage drop issues, repairing corroded fixtures, and repositioning lights that have shifted over time, helping maintain consistent illumination while reducing dark areas around the property.
Irrigation for Homes
Personalized Care for Residential Landscapes. Our residential irrigation systems combine intuitive smart controllers, seasonal maintenance planning, and microclimate balancing for sunny slopes and shaded areas, helping homeowners protect their landscapes while reducing manual watering and long-term maintenance effort.
Irrigation for Stratas & Commercial Properties
Liability Management & Budget Control. Larger properties require structured oversight and proactive inspection, so our strata and commercial services include leak detection and pressure audits, utility cost monitoring, backflow compliance management, maintenance documentation, sustainability improvements, and safety lighting for walkways and parking areas to help property managers reduce risk while maintaining well-kept landscapes.
