Sprinkler Installation Terms

Landscape Damage

Our trenching and pipe-pulling equipment may damage existing lawns and small tree roots during the installation process. We do our best to minimize lawn damage and work around large (obvious) tree roots, but it’s often hard to completely avoid it. The lawn will typically recover within 4-6 weeks with regular watering, and fertilization, but sometimes re-seeding or re-sodding may be necessary in areas. Lawn and tree damage is not covered under our warranty.

Public & Private Utilities

We will arrange a public utility locate through Colorado 811 about a week prior to your install. The locate will include water, gas, power, telephone and cable that comes from the street to your house. This does NOT include any private utilities on your property, such as electrical feeds to out-buildings, outlets in your yard, underground propane, etc. Customer is responsible for locating any of these private utilities before work begins. We are not responsible for damage to unmarked or mis-marked utilities. In the event that we hit a public utility (usually phone or cable), while performing the installation, we will notify you immediately and arrange for all repairs through the appropriate utility company.

Weather Delays

We frequently experience weather delays in Colorado, particularly in the wet spring months. It is very difficult to do this type of work in wet conditions because the ground becomes too soft (muddy) to operate equipment. We often have to delay a project from 1-5 days to give the ground time to dry. In these cases, we ask for your patience and will stay in frequent contact with you as we monitor site conditions. Rest assured that you will not lose your position in our schedule queue. Property Access We may need access to your crawl space/basement and/or garage during the installation, so we can install your controller and access the system water shut off. If you will not be home during your installation day(s), please arrange for someone to be available that does have access and can allow us in. We will be happy to coordinate this with you to limit any inconvenience.

Parking

During your installation, we will need a safe and legal place to park our truck(s), trailer(s) and equipment. If parking is limited or requires permits, please let us know prior to your installation so we can explore our options.

Gates/Fences

If your yard has limited or difficult access, we may need to remove a gate or take a panel of your fence down in order to get our equipment into the yard. We will reassemble your fence or gate exactly as it was taken down. In the rare event that we are unable to reassemble the fence/gate, we will hire a contractor of our choosing to make the repairs.

Insurance

We carry all required insurance, including a $2,000,000 liability insurance policy through The Hartford, Commercial Auto Insurance through State Farm and Workers Compensation Insurance through The Hartford. Please let us know if you’d like us to send you proof of insurance coverage prior to work commencing.

Payment Terms

We require a 50% deposit at the time we agree to work together. We are unable to schedule your project until this has been taken care of. The balance is due upon completion, at the time of your final walk-through. We accept cash, check, and credit card payments.

Expiration

Your estimate is valid for 3 months. If you decide to hold off on your project, we reserve the right to make seasonal price adjustments to your original estimate.

Warranty

All of our new installations include a 1-year warranty from your project completion date. The warranty includes all materials and workmanship. Your warranty is conditional on us performing your sprinkler winterization (October) and sprinkler activation (April/May). We can extend your warranty for up to 5 years as long as we complete the seasonal maintenance.

Cancellation / Rescheduling

We allow cancellation of your project and refund of deposit anytime within 2-weeks (14 days) of the original scheduled start date, minus any associated merchant fees. Cancellation attempts with insufficient notice will be subject to forfeiture of some or all of your deposit, at our management’s discretion. This policy has been developed to protect our team from financial hardship. Short notice cancellations do not allow us the time we need to move up existing projects in our queue, coordinate new projects, reschedule utility locates, etc. This often results in forced days off for our install team. We’d love to avoid this so please keep us informed of any scheduling changes you might need to make, as soon as humanly possible.
