Sprinkler & Irrigation Systems FAQ for Colorado Springs Homeowners

How often should Colorado Springs homeowners get sprinkler & irrigation systems?
Given Colorado Springs's hail — colorado springs is at the heart of the hail belt, with multiple severe events per year, most homeowners benefit from sprinkler & irrigation systems at least once a year. Post-hail roof and siding inspection every spring and summer often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Colorado Springs most need sprinkler & irrigation systems?
Ranch and bi-level homes throughout El Paso County and Stucco and stone homes in Briargate and Flying Horse are the most common home types in Colorado Springs and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How much does a sprinkler system cost?
A typical residential system runs $2,500–$6,000 installed depending on yard size, number of zones, and local labor rates. Smart controllers add $100–$300 but pay for themselves in water savings.
Do I need to winterize my sprinkler system?
In climates that freeze, yes. Winterization (blow-out) removes water from the lines and heads to prevent freeze damage. This should be done before the first hard freeze each year.
Can an irrigation system be added to an existing landscape?
Yes, retrofit systems can be installed in established landscapes with minimal disruption using directional boring equipment to avoid trenching through planted areas.
What's a smart irrigation controller?
Smart controllers connect to local weather data and adjust watering schedules automatically — skipping irrigation when rain is expected and adjusting for temperature and season. They typically reduce water use by 20–50%.
