Tumwater's summer dry spells—often eight to ten weeks without significant rainfall—stress lawns, ornamental beds, and young trees that rely on consistent moisture. Manual watering consumes time, wastes water through runoff, and rarely delivers the deep saturation root systems need to thrive in sandy loam soils common along the Deschutes River valley.
Two Brothers Tree Services and Landscaping designs and installs custom irrigation systems that include sprinkler heads, shut-off valves, pressure regulators, automated controllers, and drip emitters tailored to your property's topography and plant palette. According to the Irrigation Association, properly zoned systems reduce water use by 30–50% compared to hose watering while improving plant health and uniformity.
Our installation process begins with soil percolation testing and pressure mapping to ensure every zone receives optimal flow. Whether you're establishing a new landscape or retrofitting an older system, you'll benefit from programmable timers that adjust for weather conditions and smartphone integration for remote control and diagnostics.
Why Tumwater Properties Need Smart Irrigation
Tumwater's elevation gradients and mixed soil types—from clay-heavy pockets near Capitol Lake to well-drained glacial till on hillsides—create uneven moisture distribution when you rely on broadcast sprinklers. Overwatering low spots leads to disease and runoff, while high zones suffer drought stress. Zoned systems with matched precipitation rates solve this challenge.
You also face rising utility costs and Thurston County's seasonal outdoor watering restrictions, which limit manual irrigation windows. Research from Washington State University Extension shows that drip irrigation delivers water directly to root zones with 90% efficiency, compared to 65% for conventional spray heads. We integrate rain sensors and soil moisture probes that pause cycles when natural precipitation meets plant needs.
Our crews trench lines to code depth, install backflow preventers to protect potable water, and program controllers for early-morning cycles that minimize evaporation. Contact us today for irrigation system installation in Tumwater and enjoy a healthier landscape with less effort and lower water bills.
Investing in a professionally designed system transforms how your property uses water and thrives through summer:
- Customized zone design that matches sprinkler types, run times, and frequencies to plant water requirements
- Automated controllers with Wi-Fi connectivity for schedule adjustments from anywhere in Tumwater or beyond
- Durable components including Hunter, Rain Bird, or Toro heads backed by manufacturer warranties and local support
- Reduced labor and time spent dragging hoses, moving sprinklers, and monitoring water application
- Enhanced curb appeal from lush turf and vibrant beds that maintain color and density all season
Data from the Environmental Protection Agency's WaterSense program confirms that smart irrigation controllers can save an average household 8,800 gallons of water annually. We bring this efficiency to every residential and commercial project we complete.
