Install Irrigation That Covers Your Lawn Evenly

Freytag Irrigation & Pool Service designs and installs sprinkler systems for residential properties.

Your lawn has dry patches near the driveway and pooling water along the fence line because you're relying on a hose and timer that can't reach every zone. Installing a sprinkler system solves that problem by delivering water where it's needed at the right pressure and coverage. Freytag Irrigation & Pool Service designs and installs sprinkler systems for homeowners, accounting for lawn layout, water pressure, and local watering requirements so your grass gets consistent moisture without waste.

A properly installed system includes multiple zones controlled by a programmable timer, each zone using spray heads or rotors suited to the size and shape of the area. Installation involves trenching supply lines from your water source, placing valves and backflow devices to code, and positioning heads to avoid gaps or overspray. The system is designed around your property's water pressure and flow rate so every zone operates efficiently. Freytag Irrigation & Pool Service uses durable components built to handle Texas heat and soil conditions, including UV-resistant fittings and corrosion-resistant valves.

If you're planning a new sprinkler system or upgrading an older setup, contact Freytag Irrigation & Pool Service to schedule a consultation and review layout options.

System Design Starts With Your Property Layout

Freytag Irrigation & Pool Service begins by walking your property and measuring zones, noting where slopes, sidewalks, and landscaping affect water distribution. You'll receive a layout plan showing head placement, zone assignments, and controller programming recommendations. The team accounts for sun exposure, soil drainage, and the types of plants or turf in each area so the system delivers the right amount of water to each zone.

After installation, your lawn will receive uniform coverage without dry spots or runoff. Each zone runs on its own schedule, so shaded areas near the house don't get the same runtime as sunny sections along the street. You'll notice healthier grass, fewer brown patches, and lower water bills compared to manual watering. The system also frees you from dragging hoses or adjusting sprinklers by hand every few days.

Installation typically takes one to three days depending on property size and the number of zones. Trenching is kept as shallow as code allows to minimize lawn disruption. The system is tested and adjusted before the job is complete to verify coverage and pressure across all zones.

Homeowners often have similar questions when planning their first sprinkler system or replacing an outdated one.

Here's What Homeowners Want to Know

How many zones does a typical residential system need?
Most homes need three to six zones depending on lawn size and layout. Each zone groups heads with similar water needs and is controlled independently by the timer.
What type of heads work best for Texas lawns?
Spray heads work well for smaller areas and flower beds, while rotors are better for open turf because they cover larger areas with less water pressure. Freytag Irrigation & Pool Service selects heads based on your property's specific layout.
When is the best time to install a sprinkler system?

Spring and fall are ideal because cooler weather makes trenching easier and gives turf time to recover before extreme heat or cold. However, installation can be done year-round if scheduling allows it.

Why does water pressure matter during installation?
Low water pressure limits how many heads can run per zone. High pressure can cause misting and uneven coverage. The system is designed to match your home's pressure so every zone operates within the optimal range.
What maintenance does a new system need?
You should adjust the timer seasonally, check for clogged heads after mowing, and schedule a spring startup inspection to verify everything survived winter. Routine maintenance keeps the system efficient and prevents small issues from becoming larger repairs.
