"My recently-purchased townhome in Reston backs to woods and the unfenced backyard was a *mess* with overgrown weeds & bushes, rampant poison ivy, and many fallen trees. My husband and I wanted to transform it into an area where our dog could roam free and we could make use of the space too. First step was to clear everything out, and then we planned to install a fence. I initially called ET Landscaping and Lawn Care for a quote just to clean out all the weeds, bushes, poison ivy, fallen trees, etc. Julio was happy to come out to provide a free estimate, even with COVID-19 going on. When Julio arrived there was some standing water from recent rain and he explaned that we'd have some drainage & erosion issues if we cleared everything down to bare earth and left it like that while we formulated a plan for sod, mulch, landscaping, etc. After a few more visits to discuss options -- first with me and then with my husband too -- we ended up getting a quote that included labor & materials for: yard clearing, removal of a few dead and/or heavily leaning trees, installing a French drain through the wettest area, re-routing PVC drainage pipes to the edge of the yard (originally dead-ended in the middle of the yard), about 600 square feet of sod, 30 cubic yards of mulch, and 160 linear feet of board-on-board fencing. While it was more than we anticipated spending on the backyard at this time, we felt we were in good hands with Julio & felt his price was fair. From contract signing to job completion was about 6 weeks. However, most of this time was waiting for wood! Due to COVID-19, there is a significant shortage of pressure-treated pine in our area & Julio had a really tough time finding enough wood for our fence from a single supplier. He kept me informed at least weekly (sometimes more often than that!) about his search. As soon as he confirmed that the materials would be available within the following 2 weeks, his landscaping crew came to do their portion of the work. The four-man landscaping crew was here 3 times: one day to clear the big stuff; another full day to clear all the smaller stuff, install the french drain, lay the sod, spread the mulch, etc.; and another few hours on a third day to finish up. The following week, his fencing crew (3 men and 1 woman) completed the entire fence in one day! Both of his crews worked quickly but didn't rush. Our yard looks so much better!! Julio and his landscaping & fencing crews were all friendly and knowledgeable about the work they were performing. They truly are professionals! I left them to their work while doing other things around the house or working from home. I never had any concerns about whether the work would be done how I wanted it or whether they were doing a good job. Also, we are not an end unit and the only way to access our property is through the yard of one neighbor who hates people walking through his yard. Julio had his crews use a pathway that was less convenient & not as easy to get materials/tools through, but disturbed our neighbor a little less. Thank you Julio!"

"Troy and his team did a phenomenal job of building exterior French drains to redirect water away from my home. I have tried various methods over the years and nothing worked until now! My basement is completely dry and the yard looks great. They installed a beautiful paver patio as well. I highly recommend Troy and his team."

"My front yard was transformed from 'no curb appeal' to 'home & garden' They 2 men worked very hard and did exceptional work. There is a language barrier but 1 of the men could clearly understand me. I met them at Home Depot and purchased everything I wanted ad needed to make it happen."

"About ten days later, Andrew and a crew of 4-6 men (at various times) arrived promptly,  They began by replacing and raising two window wells and adding additional dirt and gravel.  An area near the basement room with the mold problem required raising the ground to redirect water away from the house, which they did.  
About six gutter drain spouts had water redirected away from the house toward or all the way to the surrounding woods.  Classic Drainage dug troughs, laid pipe, and connected the pipe to the gutter spouts.  In addition, Classic Drainage installed a consolidated pipe that directs water from one gutter spout and our sump pump to the wooded area.  Several of the pipes were 8-15 feet in length.  One was installed under the sidewalk in the front of the house.  The results are that several eyesores were addressed, water is now being redirected as it should, and the whole drainage system looks modern and up to date.  Soil, grass seed and hay were placed 
on top of the trenches where pipes were installed.  In addition, the crew took care to ensure that the existing lawn sprinkler system was not damaged in any way, and even adjusted some of the sprinkler piping to better direct water.
In all, the work took three visits over about 18 hours total.  
We are extremely pleased with the quality of the work, the expertise that Andrew and his crew clearly demonstrated, and the efficiency and effectiveness of their work.  We highly recommend Classic Drainage!"

FAQs for lawn and garden sprinkler system installation projects in Markham, VA

While drip irrigation systems have higher upfront costs, they can save you money in the long run. By delivering water directly into the soil with minimal evaporation and runoff, drip irrigation systems conserve water and improve efficiency. This means better performance and results for your landscaping, and cost savings over the system's lifespan.

Yes, irrigation systems can add value to your home, especially when installed with high-quality materials and a solid design. A well-irrigated landscape enhances curb appeal and can attract potential buyers. However, poor design or installation may reduce performance and even decrease your property's value. Hiring an expert for installation and performing regular maintenance is key to securing the long-term benefits.

A local irrigation professional can help you check your drip irrigation system to make sure it's in good shape. You'll want to make sure the water pressure is in a good range, repair any leaks as soon as possible, and cover the cost to winterize your sprinkler system as recommended by your irrigation contractor.

A drip irrigation system lasts between 10 and 15 years. This lifespan is determined by the quality of materials, the precision of installation, and regular professional maintenance. Unlike traditional sprinkler systems that can last up to 50 years, the thinner piping used in drip systems is more sensitive to UV exposure and environmental wear. Proper upkeep and timely repairs enhance durability and ensure consistent irrigation performance.

Drip irrigation is best suited for plant beds, containers, greenhouses, and row crops. It supplies water directly to individual plants, ensuring precise moisture control where it is needed most. For areas with simple layouts, above-ground systems work efficiently, while subsurface installations may be cost-prohibitive in spaces with extensive tree roots or irregular terrain. Proper planning maximizes the benefits of drip irrigation across a variety of applications.
