Sprinkler System Installation in Houston, Texas
New coverage in Houston is a layout: enough water, matched heads, and a timer that fits the grass.
Inside the Loop, lawns are small and the irrigation is older than the last kitchen remodel. Heights bungalows, Montrose cottages, and River Oaks estates all run pop-ups through Houston clay. Heads sit too low in St. Augustine. Underground pipes snap when the soil shrinks. We repair the zone that actually failed and leave a program that waters at night, not at noon.
77007 and 77008 still have original underground pipes next to oaks. Memorial and River Oaks want matched heads and a quiet dusk cycle. Meyerland rebuilds got new sod and a builder system that never covered the side yard.
Installation starts at the tap and the backflow, not at the first head. We size the meter and static pressure. Houston city pressure is not the same in Jersey Village and in a League City cul-de-sac.
Zones are grouped by sun, slope, and head type. Rotors on the big backyard. Sprays on the parkway. Drip on the beds. Mixing them is how builder systems fail in year two.
We pull permits where the city wants them, call 811, and restore sod. New-build clay is soup after a rain; we wait rather than glue wet joints.
Why Houston lawns fail this way
Houston yards are often small and the sprinklers are older than the last kitchen. Parkways can be two feet wide. Original pipe still serves bungalows. New houses get new systems next to neighbors on 1980s pipe. City parkway restoration is inspected.
Soil. Houston Black clay and Beaumont clay that shrinks in drought and swells after Gulf storms
Grass. St. Augustine inside the Loop, Bermuda on some rebuilds, zoysia on a few River Oaks lawns
Houses. 1920s bungalows inside the Loop, 1950s brick ranches, and post-Harvey rebuilt slabs Typical failures: mower-clipped pop-ups, clay-heaved PVC, dry side yards, controllers fried by storms
Parkway work in Houston is watched. We restore soil and sod (or match what the city expects) and we do not leave a rut in the strip. If a permit applies, it is part of the quote.
