Why do I need an irrigation system in rainy Seattle?
Proper irrigation keeps your lawn and plantings health and protect the investment you made in your yard. Western Washington can be drier than Phoenix, Az in the summer. We can go several months in the summer with no precipitation and your plantings would not survive the dry spell.

You have taken the time to create your private oasis and have invested allot in the process. Northwest winters have long dark nights and grey days. Investing in a well designed landscape lighting system can bring the yard to life during our long winter nights.
Why can't you just give me a quote over the phone without visitng my yard?
Every yard is unique and a site visit is usually required. Access issues, planting material, parking, irrigation and slopes all need to be taken into consideration when coming up with a proposal.
