Irrigation Services for Schools and Campuses
School and campus grounds take more wear than almost any other landscape. Athletic fields get used every day, students walk across planters, and the irrigation system has to keep up with all of it on a budget that rarely grows. When it fails, the result is not just brown grass. Uneven fields, raised sprinkler heads, and soggy areas are safety concerns.
We work with schools, colleges, and other campuses across Los Angeles County to keep fields and grounds safe and watered efficiently.
What matters on school grounds
- Field safety. Sprinkler heads must sit flush with the turf, and fields need even coverage so there are no hard, dry patches or muddy ones.
- Watering windows. Fields and grounds need to be watered when no one is using them, and dry by the time students arrive.
- Budgets and approvals. Facilities teams need clear scopes and written documentation to get work approved.
- Timing. Larger projects are best scheduled during summer and other breaks.
- Water use. Large irrigated areas make water one of the bigger costs in a grounds budget.
How we help
- Irrigation audits. We test every controller, valve, and zone, including athletic fields, and deliver a zone-by-zone report with suggested repairs and modifications. The report gives your facilities team the documentation to request approval. See irrigation audits.
- Field-safe repairs. We reset raised and sunken heads, fix coverage gaps, and replace damaged parts with matching ones. We respond to repair requests within 24 hours, with a one-year warranty on repair work.
- Programming assurance. We determine the best watering times around class schedules, events, and sports, so fields and grounds are dry when students are on them. See our water management service.
- Grow-in programs. Newly planted areas and reseeded sports fields get a dedicated watering program until they are established.
- Upgrades planned around breaks. Smart controllers, two-wire systems, and drip conversion can be phased over several breaks. See smart irrigation upgrades.
- Backflow testing. We test and repair backflow assemblies, which generally need testing every year.
Ongoing care
Monthly or quarterly audits catch problems before a game or an inspection does. Monthly flow and system health reports show the facilities team what the system used and what was fixed.
