Steps a Contractor Will Take When Installing Your New Sprinkler System
When you perform a sprinkler installation, it can be a huge undertaking. Your contractor will need to access your property in order to set up your sprinkler system. When it comes to installing a sprinkler it comes with various moving parts, not to mention you will need the likes of tools, shovels, and mechanical devices that will help you to create trenches to install the pipework. It takes about one day unless of course the contractor hits any problems or there are municipality regulations that pertain to the project, with regards to the irrigation system.
Here are those steps:
Organizing all the installation materials
You will notice that your contractor will start to lay out various materials and tools, which also include PVC or poly piping, shovels, fittings, a backflow preventer, metal or pipe for any above-ground connections, and various other tools needed in the installation process. Putting in a lawn sprinkler can be a messy job, as your contractor will need to dig trenches and disturb some landscaping depending on how the design has been laid out. Before your contractor can start, they will call 811 to ask where all utility lines are on your property. And, they will also contact your local waterworks to ask if there are any backflow preventer rules, in addition to any other regulations with regards to an irrigation system installation.
Measuring and flagging the site
Someone from the utility company may come out to mark where the public utility systems are on your property. Next, your contractor will need you to show them where all the wiring is located for exterior lights, any gas lines, drainage pipes, and other such yard utilities are located. They will need to plot out the site so they know where to put the sprinkler heads, so they will spray in every place that they are needed.
