Pricing guide
Costs are mainly driven by system complexity and site conditions. Multi‑zone installs and jobs that require locating and removing existing irrigation typically need more labour and extra components, while compacted soil, paving or rock increase digging and disposal work; after‑hours attendance usually increases rates.
Number of zones and valves
Multi‑zone systems require extra valves, manifolds and controller setup, which typically increases labour and parts needs.
Removal and retrofit work
Locating, removing and disposing of old lines or reworking manifolds generally adds labour and can complicate the job.
Ground and access conditions
Soft soil or mulch is usually quicker to trench, while compacted soil, paving or rock may need more time and specialised removal.
System size and pipe length
Longer runs of dripline and more emitters increase material use and installation time.
Controller and component specification
Higher‑spec controllers, additional solenoids or premium components typically add to parts and setup complexity.
