Commercial Irrigation Services in Northwest Arkansas
Systems that deliver water where the plants need it — and stop delivering it to the sidewalk.
Overview
Most Irrigation Problems Are Invisible Until the Turf Browns
An irrigation system runs before dawn, which means nobody on the property ever watches it work. Heads get clipped by mowers, nozzles clog, a zone valve sticks, a lateral cracks after a freeze, and the first sign anything is wrong is a brown crescent in the turf six weeks later — or a water bill that jumped by a third with no explanation. By then the plants have already paid for it.
We treat irrigation as a measurable system rather than a repair call. An audit runs every zone while someone watches it: head-to-head coverage, arc and rotation, pressure at the far end of the run, mixed nozzle types inside a single zone, sunken or tilted heads, spray on hardscape, and controller programming that no one has revisited in three years. You get a zone-by-zone report with what is broken, what is misconfigured, and what is simply wasting water.
The fixes are usually less dramatic than expected. Correcting nozzle mismatch, straightening heads, and rewriting a controller schedule around cycle-and-soak often cuts consumption meaningfully while improving turf color, because the problem was distribution rather than volume. Where a system genuinely needs new zones, valves, mainline, or a smart controller with rain and soil sensors, we scope it with pricing before anything is dug up.
What’s Included
Everything in the Scope.
System audit
Zone-by-zone run test documenting coverage, pressure, and equipment condition.
Spring startup
Charge the system, inspect every head, correct arcs, and program the seasonal schedule.
Winterization
Compressed-air blowout and shutdown to prevent freeze damage to lines and backflow.
Repairs
Heads, nozzles, valves, solenoids, wiring, lateral lines, and mainline breaks.
Controller programming
Seasonal schedule adjustments using cycle-and-soak to reduce runoff.
Smart upgrades
Weather-based controllers, rain and flow sensors, and remote-access systems.
Drip conversion
Replacing spray in shrub and color beds with drip for targeted, low-loss watering.
New installation
Design and install of new zones or full systems with as-built documentation.
What It Does for the Property.
Real water savings
Correcting distribution and scheduling reduces consumption without asking the landscape to survive on less.
Plant health protection
Even coverage prevents both the dry crescents and the constantly saturated low spots that kill shrubs from the roots up.
Damage avoided
Proper winterization and prompt leak repair prevent freeze breaks, washouts, and undermined pavement.
Documented accountability
Audit reports and as-builts give ownership something concrete to review when approving irrigation spend.

Monthly wet checks during the irrigation season are the standard for commercial properties, plus a full audit at startup. Monthly checks catch clipped heads and clogged nozzles within weeks rather than after the turf shows damage, and they are far cheaper than the turf they protect.
Typically late October into November, before the first sustained hard freeze. Waiting risks cracked backflow assemblies and split laterals, which are considerably more expensive than a blowout. We schedule winterization routes ahead of the forecast rather than reacting to it.
Usually — but only if the distribution underneath it is sound. A weather-based controller skipping cycles after rain saves real money; the same controller on a system with mismatched nozzles just wastes water more precisely. We recommend fixing coverage first, then upgrading control.
Yes, and most of what we service was installed by someone else. The first visit typically includes mapping zones and valve locations, because that documentation is often missing — and having it saves money on every repair afterward.
Active leaks and mainline breaks are treated as priority calls; the first step is usually isolating the zone or shutting the system down to stop the loss while a repair is scheduled. Contract clients get first position on the repair schedule.
