Superior only uses industry leading sprinkler products from Rainbird, Hunter and Irritol. We offer multiple types of sprinkler heads for every application, from large turf areas to small planting beds. Each head can produce different watering patterns; drip irrigation can help save water usage in planting beds. Superior only uses durable PVC pipe, made for most irrigation parts and fittings, unlike other companies using flexible piping to save money.
Once your sprinkler system is installed, we’re here to provide ongoing maintenance and support such as system adjustments, repairs, and seasonal maintenance to keep your sprinkler system operating at its best. Count on us to be your trusted partner in maintaining a beautiful and well-watered landscape.
Prior to your installation, we’ll have an initial appointment with you to evaluate your property to understand the needs and nuances of your lawn. We’ll provide you an estimate within 24 hours of your appointment.
With permits in hand that we’ve acquired on your behalf, and your lawn flagged with the system layout, our team will get to work putting your custom irrigation system in the ground. We’ll leave your property looking better than before and run tests to ensure the system is running properly.
Upon completion of your installation, we’ll follow up with you, run an in-depth test to make any final adjustments, and activate your warranty. We’ll also answer any questions you have and make sure you’re loving your new irrigation system!

Professional& ExperiencedQ: Is a permit required to install a lawn irrigation system in Northern Virginia?
A:Yes, a permit is typically required. For instance, Fairfax County mandates obtaining a permit and a final inspection for the installation of backflow prevention assemblies associated with irrigation systems.
Q: How often and how much should I water my lawn in Northern Virginia?
A:Established lawns typically require about 1 to 2 inches of water per week. During dry spells, supplemental watering may be necessary to maintain lawn health.
Q: What factors influence the cost of an irrigation system installation?
A:Several factors affect the cost, including property size, site conditions, soil type, number of zones, type of controls (basic vs. smart systems), and required permits.
Q: Is a separate water meter necessary for the irrigation system?
A:In Northern Virginia, a separate meter may not be required. Many water authorities use your average winter water usage to estimate summer charges, potentially eliminating the need for a separate irrigation meter. It’s advisable to check with your local water authority for specifics.
Q: When is the best time to water my lawn?
A: The optimal time to water is between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. This timing allows water to soak into the soil before the heat of the day causes evaporation, promoting deeper root growth and a healthier lawn.
Q: What maintenance is required for a lawn irrigation system?
A:Regular maintenance includes seasonal system start-up and shutdown, inspecting to identify leaks or damaged components, adjusting sprinkler heads for proper coverage, and periodically testing the backflow prevention device to ensure itfunctions correctly.
