Irrigation System Installation
Lautner Irrigation, Inc. is proud to employ the only Certified Irrigation Designers in Northern Michigan, bringing unmatched expertise to every installation we complete. From your first conversation with us to the moment you turn your system on, you'll know exactly what to expect every step of the way. Here's how we make the process smooth, transparent, and tailored to your property.
Step 1: Meeting and Measuring
A Certified Irrigation Designer will meet with you to talk through your watering goals and any special needs your property has, then measure your lot to gather everything needed for a custom design.
Step 2: Design and Approval
Your designer will create a detailed irrigation print, then walk you through it head by head so you understand exactly how your system will work. Once you give your approval, we'll schedule your installation date.
Step 3: Getting Ready
Three days before installation, your property will be flagged for utilities by Miss Dig, so everything is safe and ready to go.
Step 4: Installation Day
On the morning of your installation, your designer will join the foreman and crew on-site to go over any last-minute details. Using a Maxi-Sneaker, the crew pulls irrigation lines into the ground without trenching, then installs the water tap plumbing, controller, fittings, and heads.
Step 5: Final Touches
Once installation is complete, your sprinkler heads are adjusted for maximum coverage, and any disturbed areas are flattened and reseeded so your lawn can bounce right back.
Step 6: Walkthrough
Before we leave, our foreman will walk you through your new system and show you the basics of operating your controller, so you feel confident from day one.
