Irrigation Installation

We offer irrigation installation services for properties in Buckhead, Brookhaven, Sandy Springs, Chastain Park & surrounding Atlanta neighborhoods.

We install irrigation systems that keep your lawn and landscape properly watered throughout the growing season.

Keeping your lawn and landscape healthy requires consistent watering, especially during the warm months in Georgia. An irrigation system helps deliver water efficiently to your grass, plants, and landscape beds without requiring constant manual watering.

At Hedges & Edges Landscaping, we install irrigation systems designed to provide reliable watering across your property. Whether you’re building a new home, upgrading your landscape, or adding irrigation to a property that doesn’t currently have a system, our team can design and install a system tailored to your landscape.

Our Irrigation Installation Process

Installing an irrigation system begins with evaluating your property and designing a system that provides proper coverage for lawns, landscape beds, and garden areas. Our team installs irrigation zones that ensure each area of your property receives the right amount of water.

For landscape beds and plantings, we can install drip irrigation systems that deliver water directly to the base of plants. Drip systems help reduce water waste while ensuring plants receive consistent moisture.

We can also install smart irrigation controllers that connect to Wi-Fi. These systems allow homeowners to adjust watering schedules and monitor irrigation settings directly from their smartphone.

What Types of Irrigation Systems Can We Install?

Every property has different watering needs, which is why irrigation systems are designed to match the layout of your lawn and landscape beds. At Hedges & Edges Landscaping, we install irrigation systems that provide efficient coverage while helping ensure your plants receive the water they need.

Some of the irrigation options we commonly install include:

Sprinkler Irrigation Systems: Sprinkler systems are typically used to water lawns. These systems use pop-up sprinkler heads that distribute water evenly across turf areas to keep grass healthy throughout the growing season.

Drip Irrigation Systems: Drip irrigation is commonly installed in landscape beds and garden areas. This system delivers water slowly and directly to the base of plants, helping reduce water waste while ensuring plants receive consistent moisture.

Smart Irrigation Systems: Smart irrigation controllers connect to Wi-Fi and allow homeowners to manage watering schedules from their smartphone. These systems make it easy to adjust watering times and monitor irrigation settings remotely.

Recommended Irrigation Schedule for Georgia Landscapes

In the Atlanta area, irrigation systems typically operate throughout the growing season to support lawns and landscape plants during warmer months.

Most systems are:

• Started in early spring when temperatures begin warming
• Operated throughout the growing season
• Shut down around late October or early November

Georgia weather can sometimes bring a “false fall,” where temperatures briefly drop before warming up again for a few weeks. Because of this, irrigation systems may continue running later into the fall before being winterized.

Irrigation Repairs, Winterization & System Startup

In addition to irrigation installation, our team also provides services that keep irrigation systems operating properly throughout the year.

Irrigation Repairs

Over time, irrigation systems can develop issues that require repair. Some of the most common repairs include replacing broken sprinkler heads (pop-ups) or modifying irrigation zones when homeowners expand garden beds or landscaping.

Irrigation Winterization

Before freezing temperatures arrive, irrigation systems should be winterized to prevent damage.

Our winterization process includes:

• Blowing out the irrigation lines to remove water
• Shutting off the system at the main line

This helps protect pipes and components from freezing temperatures during the winter months.

Irrigation Startup

In the spring, irrigation systems need to be restarted so they can begin watering the landscape again. During this service, we safely reactivate the system and check that all components are operating properly before the growing season begins.

Backflow Testing

Backflow testing ensures the irrigation system is operating safely and prevents contaminated water from flowing back into the clean water supply.
