The Importance Of A Well Designed Irrigation System & Its Installation

A well-designed irrigation system offers several benefits, contributing to efficient water use, plant health, and overall landscape management. Here are key advantages:

Water Efficiency

  • A well-designed irrigation system optimizes water usage by delivering the right amount of water directly to plants. Efficient irrigation reduces water waste, helping to conserve this valuable resource.

Consistent Watering

  • Proper design ensures uniform water distribution across the entire irrigated area.
  • Consistent watering prevents under- or overwatering, promoting balanced plant growth.

Customization For Plant Needs

  • Tailoring the irrigation system to the specific needs of different plants allows for customization of watering schedules, durations, and frequencies.
  • This ensures that each type of vegetation receives the appropriate amount of water.

Water Conservation

  • Features such as freeze sensors, rain sensors, smart controllers and smart water meters that detects leaks, tracks water usage and sends alarms in case of an issue, can be integrated into the system to optimize water conservation.
  • These technologies help prevent wasting water and expensive water bills.

Prevention Of Water Runoff & Erosion

  • Proper design minimizes water runoff and soil erosion by matching the irrigation rate to the soil's infiltration capacity.
  • This helps protect against environmental damage and loss of nutrients.

Healthy Plant Growth

  • Consistent and adequate irrigation promotes healthy root development, leading to stronger and more resilient plants.
  • Proper hydration supports overall plant health and reduces the risk of diseases associated with water stress.

Reduced Weed Growth

  • Precise watering minimizes overspray and runoff, reducing the likelihood of weed growth in non-target areas.
  • Weed control is improved, contributing to a more aesthetically pleasing landscape.

Time & Labor Savings

  • Automated irrigation systems save time and labor compared to manual watering methods.

Adaptability To Landscape Features

  • Well-designed systems take into account the layout, slope, and specific features of the landscape.
  • Zoning allows for different areas to be irrigated based on their unique characteristics and water requirements.

Long-Term Cost Savings

  • While initial setup costs may be involved, a well-designed irrigation system can result in long-term savings by reducing water bills, plant replacement costs, and maintenance expenses.

Enhanced Property Value

  • A properly irrigated and well-maintained landscape adds to the curb appeal of a property, potentially increasing its overall value.

What You Can Expect From Our Irrigation Installation

  • Expertise & Experience

    Over the years, we've installed numerous high-quality irrigation systems and performed extensive repairs on installations from other companies. Our wealth of experience has given us valuable insights into what it takes to design top-notch irrigation systems. When creating a system, we consider various factors such as shaded or sunny areas, property slope, landscape plant types, water pressure and flow, grass types, proper zoning, and anticipate ease of future maintenance.

  • Customized Solutions

    Our designs consistently offer tailored solutions to address the specific needs of each unique landscape.

  • Advanced Technology Integration

    We stay well-informed and continuously update our knowledge on the latest irrigation technology. This includes advancements such as freeze sensors, smart controls, and smart irrigation water meters capable of tracking water usage on a zone-by-zone basis and throughout the entire system. These advanced systems can send alerts in the event of a leak or if a valve fails to activate. In the case of a leak, the system is designed to automatically shut down either the entire system or specifically the zone where the leak is detected, ensuring prompt and effective response.

  • Water Conservation Focus

    We place a strong emphasis on water conservation while promoting a thriving lawn. Our expertise shines through in our thoughtful designs, which prioritize efficient water coverage, ultimately reducing the duration of irrigation cycles. For properties on slopes, we employ low-flow sprinklers to minimize water runoff. Additionally, we consistently install valves equipped with flow regulators to prevent excess pressure, which can lead to pipe damage and unnecessary water wastage. Our goal is to assist customers in both saving water and reducing costs.

  • Client Education & Communication

    After completing the installation, we will provide comprehensive guidance to ensure you are well-versed in operating your new system. This includes programming the control, offering watering guidance, demonstrating emergency shut-off procedures, and providing winter maintenance tips. For your convenience, if you ever need a refresher, you will receive an email expressing gratitude for choosing us, along with a playlist of instructional videos covering control programming, winterization tips, and watering guidance.

  • Quality Materials & Workmanship

    Throughout our years in this industry, our preference lies in utilizing Rain Bird products, although we also incorporate other brands such as Hunter, Toro, and Irritrol when they prove most effective in different scenarios. While the use of high-quality materials is crucial, we believe that proper installation is Crucial. Examples of our commitment to excellence include precise pipe welding with the application of primer and glue in all fittings, maintaining the separation of valves with different T fittings (not on the same one), employing waterproof wire nuts for secure wire splices, discreetly installing valve boxes in less visible areas of the yard, opting for 6-inch heads instead of 4-inch heads when dealing with high-mowed St. Augustine grass, and ensuring a thorough cleanup by collecting and hauling away leftover soil once the job is complete. We take immense pride in our work, and it is this dedication that drives us to install irrigation systems designed to last a lifetime.


  • Responsive Customer Service

    We are dedicated to serving our customers with the highest standards. Following the installation, we will schedule a visit within one month to address any necessary changes and gather feedback or concerns. Additionally, we offer two complimentary visits, one in spring and one in the summer, to make adjustments to any spray patterns.

  • Competitive Pricing

    At Tx High Maintenance, our focus is not on competing solely on prices but rather on addressing our customers' problems with utmost sincerity. This commitment is reflected in our transparency right from the beginning. When designing an irrigation system, our priority is to develop a solution that effectively addresses the specific issue. We do not take any shortcuts, ensuring that we use the right materials for the correct watering application.

  • Safety Standards

    Prior to commencing any excavation, we will contact 811 to have the utilities marked and located. We hand-dig in proximity to utility lines and consistently inquire with clients about any additional utilities they may have installed that require our attention.

Custom Irrigation Design

  • Proper sprinkler spacing insuring that your garden won't have dry spots.
  • Proper zoning keeping shading and sunny areas apart on the irrigation zones.
  • Same brand on all the irrigation installations for easy maintenance.
  • Irrigation mapping- We'll let you know where important parts of the irrigation system are located for future maintenance or landscape projects.
  • Proper precipitation rates- keeping spray heads, drip tubbing, and rotor heads in separate zones.


A good irrigation design will help you minimize wasted water with the end results of saving you money. Keeping grass and plants properly watered will save you money avoiding the replacing of dead plants, while minimizing repairs.
