The right irrigation keeps your landscape healthy while using as little water as possible. We design and install efficient drip and spray systems, tuned to your plants and to local water guidelines.
From new installs to fixing an old, leaky system, we make sure water goes where it should, and nowhere it shouldn't.

Irrigation Systems Designed for the Las Vegas Valley
Watering a Las Vegas Valley landscape isn't optional, it's regulated. SNWA sets seasonal watering day restrictions and time-of-day limits across the valley, and a landscape that isn't on an efficient, well-zoned system either wastes water on the wrong days or dries out plants that need it. We design irrigation systems around current SNWA rules so your yard stays compliant and your plants stay healthy without guesswork.
Rocky, alkaline desert soil drains differently than the soil most irrigation systems are designed for elsewhere, and it changes how water actually reaches root zones. Drip irrigation is often the better fit for plant beds here, cutting evaporation loss in extreme heat, while turf and larger areas need properly zoned spray coverage. We design each system around your soil, sun exposure, and plant mix, not a one-size template.

How It Works
From first call to final walkthrough
System Design & Zoning
We map your landscape into zones based on plant type, sun exposure, and water needs before any lines go in.
Trenching & Line Installation
Lines are trenched and installed to code, sized correctly for pressure and flow across every zone.
Controller & Smart Timer Setup
We install and program a smart controller aligned to current SNWA watering day and time restrictions.
Testing & Seasonal Adjustment
Every zone is tested for coverage and pressure, then adjusted seasonally as Las Vegas temperatures shift.
Smart, efficient watering
Drip where it counts
Targeted drip lines deliver water to roots, minimizing waste and runoff.
Tuned to SNWA guidelines
Zoned and scheduled to work with Nevada's water rules, not against them.
Repairs & upgrades
Fix leaks, replace controllers, and modernize old systems to save water.
Questions
Irrigation FAQs
What days can I water my lawn in Las Vegas?
SNWA sets watering day and time restrictions that change by season and can shift year to year, so check the current SNWA schedule directly. A smart controller programmed to those rules keeps you compliant automatically.
Should I switch from sprinklers to drip irrigation?
For plant beds and shrubs, drip irrigation typically uses water more efficiently than spray heads in our climate, since it delivers water directly to the root zone with far less evaporation loss. Turf areas still generally need spray coverage.
How often should irrigation be serviced in the desert?
We recommend a seasonal check, especially heading into summer, since extreme heat, monsoon debris, and ground shifting can all affect lines, emitters, and controller settings over a year.
Can smart controllers actually save water in Las Vegas?
Yes. Smart controllers that adjust for weather and enforce SNWA-compliant schedules cut down on overwatering and runoff compared to a fixed timer, which matters both for your water bill and for local water restrictions.
