Irrigation design that keeps a landscape alive and water bills sane.

An irrigation system is easy to install badly and expensive to run when it is. Daydream designs the zones, coverage, and controls that water your landscape efficiently, and coordinates licensed irrigation and plumbing professionals for the install and any permits.

Why It Matters

Bad irrigation kills plants two ways: too little and too much.

A poorly designed system waters the driveway and misses the beds, drowns one zone while another goes dry, and runs up a water bill doing it. Overwatering is as deadly to plants as drought, and both trace back to a system that was installed without being designed. The planting you invested in slowly fails, and no one connects it to the sprinklers.

Irrigation design matches water to what the landscape actually needs. We plan zones by plant type, sun, and soil, size the coverage so it is even and efficient, and design in smart controls that adjust to weather. The system is designed around your specific planting and grade, then installed by licensed irrigation and plumbing professionals we coordinate, including backflow prevention and any permits required.

What The Design Covers

Water, planned zone by zone.

An efficient irrigation plan, coordinated with licensed professionals for install and permits.

Zone Design

Zones planned by plant type, sun exposure, and soil, so each area gets the water it actually needs.

Coverage & Head Layout

Head types and spacing designed for even coverage, avoiding both dry spots and wasteful overspray.

Smart Controls

Controllers and sensors that adjust watering to weather and season, cutting waste and protecting plants.

Install & Backflow Coordination

Installation, backflow prevention, and permits coordinated with licensed irrigation and plumbing professionals.

How It Is Handled

Designed by us, installed by licensed professionals.

The design is ours. The install and permitted plumbing work is licensed. Here is how they connect.

01

Assess the Landscape

We evaluate your planting, grade, sun, soil, and water source to understand what the system has to do.

02

Design the System

We design zones, coverage, and controls matched to the landscape, and prepare the irrigation plan.

03

Coordinate the Install

Licensed irrigation and plumbing professionals handle installation, backflow, and any permits required.

04

Build or Hand Off

We build it as your design-build team, or deliver the irrigation design for your crews to install.

Who It Serves

For new planting and struggling landscapes alike.

Homeowners protect the landscape they invested in with a system designed to keep it healthy and efficient. Builders and designers get an irrigation plan coordinated with the planting design, with the licensed install handled. Designed alongside our planting design, irrigation is built around the actual plants, not guessed at.

Common Questions

Irrigation design, answered.

Why does irrigation need to be designed?
Because plants in different areas need different amounts of water, and a system installed without a plan waters them all the same. Design is what matches water to need, which keeps plants healthy and water bills reasonable.
Do you install the system yourselves?
We prepare the irrigation design. Installation, backflow prevention, and any permitted plumbing work are handled by the licensed irrigation and plumbing professionals we coordinate.
Can smart controls really save water?
Yes. Weather-based and sensor-driven controllers skip watering when it is not needed, which cuts waste significantly and prevents the overwatering that damages plants.
Can you design irrigation for an existing landscape?
Yes. We can design a system for established planting, or redesign one that is not working, and coordinate the licensed install.

Water it right, waste nothing.
