Irrigation Installation Questions From Las Vegas Homeowners

Do I Need a Licensed Contractor for Irrigation Installation?

Nevada requires a C10 contractor license for for-hire irrigation installation work. Before hiring anyone, ask to see their current Nevada state contractor license number. Sierra Landscape is licensed and insured for residential landscape work.

Drip Irrigation vs. Sprinkler Systems: Which Do I Need?

Drip irrigation delivers water directly to plant root zones at low flow rates, making it well-suited for desert plants, xeriscape, and garden beds. Sprinkler systems work better for turf and lawn zones. Many Las Vegas yards use both, with separate zones for each plant type. See the “Types of Irrigation Systems We Install” section above for a full breakdown.

When Is the Best Time to Install an Irrigation System in Las Vegas?

Spring and early summer are the most common installation windows, since most homeowners want a system in place before peak heat arrives. That said, Southern Nevada’s mild winters make year-round installation possible, so you don’t need to wait for a specific season to get started.

Can I Qualify for the SNWA Rebate When Installing a New Drip System?

The SNWA Water Smart Landscape rebate applies to grass replacement projects that include a qualifying drip irrigation system. Adding irrigation without removing grass doesn’t qualify, and conversions must meet specific plant coverage and system specifications. Check snwa.com for full requirements before starting your project.

Does Sierra Landscape Offer Financing for Irrigation Projects?

Yes. Financing options are available through HFS Financial for homeowners who want to spread the cost of a landscape or irrigation installation project. Contact us at (702) 779-0932 to learn more.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much do I water my new landscape?

    Our team will set up your timer for the appropriate time while working on your landscape project. Typically for a 15-30 day watering period. This may vary during the seasons and will require you to make future adjustments as temperatures change or weather events occur. We recommend following SNWA water guidelines after your new plants and trees are established.

  • Is your artificial turf save for kids and pets?
    Yes absolutely! We only use certified lead free artificial grass that is manufactured without PFAS in the raw ingredients. We only use an acrylic-coated, round sand infused with Microban technology that is used as synthetic turf infill. No silica sand.
  • Are pavers better than concrete?
    While both pavers and concrete have comparable maintenance costs, pavers outperform concrete in durability and ease of repair. They’re easier to clean, repairs are less noticeable, and proper care ensures they maintain their look and function for decades longer than concrete. Concrete may seem easier initially, but over time, cracks, stains, and costly replacements make it less appealing compared to the long-term benefits of pavers.
  • Does Sierra Landscape offer weekly or monthly maintenance?
    Unfortunately not at this time. Our team specializes in creating beautiful landscape customized for each client.
