What to Expect Before the Installation
An underground irrigation system delivers water to your lawn and landscape at the right time, and in just the right amount. You’ll have peace of mind knowing your property isn’t overwatered or underwatered. Each property and project is unique. If you are interested in having an irrigation system installed, contact us today at Flower City Irrigation.
We will need a copy of the survey or tape map of the property, and a completed Application for Approval of Backflow Prevention Devices (DOH-347).
We require a deposit in the amount of 50% of the total project price.
We will call Dig Safely New York for a utility stake out 3 days prior to starting your project. All of the public utility companies that have lines on your property will show up to mark their locations.
The utility companies who provide phone and cable service to your home may not locate the lines all of the way to your house, therefore, there is a chance that these lines may be cut during the installation process. If a phone or cable line is severed, the utility company will repair the line, at no charge to you, within 24 hours.
Dig Safely will only notify public utility providers in your neighborhood; therefore, locating and communicating the location of any private underground services are the responsibility of the homeowner. Please notify us ahead of time if there are any private underground utilities including, but not limited to, the following:
Underground electric to sheds, wells, pool/spa, light poles, invisible dog fences, landscape lighting, septic systems, wells and dry wells, etc.
If you use a mowing and/or lawn care company, please let them know that we will be working on your property and have them postpone any application and/or mowing for 1 week following the completion of our work. If your mowing company will be coming during the “stake-out” period, please ask that they do not remove any of the utility flags that may be in the lawn areas
A lawn sprinkler system installed by Flower City Irrigation divides your property into zones. Each zone can be different in terms of the amount of water it gets, and at what time of day it’s watered. Call 585-392-8998 for more information!

• Worker’s Compensation Insurance

Will an Automatic Sprinkler System Waste Water?
NO. In fact, it will conserve water. A professionally designed and installed irrigation system is precisely timed and controlled to deliver only the amount of water necessary, at the correct time of day. Unlike hand watering your lawn, you will not over-water with an automatic sprinkler system, or forget to shut off your garden hose.
Does Installation Cause Damage?
Installation of an automatic lawn sprinkler system requires trenching and pipe pulling. Our machinery is designed to trench and bury irrigation systems with minimal lawn damage. In favorable soil conditions, our machine is capable of horizontal drilling under driveways & sidewalks, resulting in zero damage to paved or concrete areas. Upon completion of your irrigation system, the lines are barely visible and disappear quickly as your lawn grows.
